LEO A DALY, one of the nation’s leading architecture, engineering, and interior design firms, is pleased to announce that the Intelligence Community Campus (ICC-B) in Bethesda, Maryland is the recipient of a 2017 Design-Build Merit Award, given by the Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA).

The award was bestowed in Philadelphia at the DBIA national conference during a ceremony on the evening of November 9 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. In announcing the awards, the DBIA stated that this year’s program recipients “deliver on the promise to reshape our communities one design-build project at a time.”
