(Princeton, NJ, February 9, 2024) — The National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) named Lasley Brahaney Architecture + Construction of Princeton, NJ, 2024 Northeast Regional Contractor of the Year (CotY) winner in the Residential Architectural Design Over 500 Sq. Ft. category in the annual awards competition.

“We are honored to be CotY Award winners. This year’s recognition is for the work of our architectural team, whereas in past years, our design-build work has been central to the award category. The design team deserves a great deal of credit; they successfully collaborated with both the homeowners and our construction team to ensure a great outcome,” said owner, Marc Brahaney.

Each year, NARI presents CotY Awards to members who have demonstrated outstanding work through their remodeling projects. The CotY Awards are the highest form of recognition by industry leaders and peers. NARI received over 600 entries from across the United States representing over $230 million in remodeling projects.

“NARI CotY winners represent the best of the best in the remodeling industry,” says NARI Co-CEO Tracy Wright, CAE, CNAP. “This year’s competition received the highest number of entries in over a decade, and the judges consistently commented on the rewards of reviewing this level of superior craftsmanship and design. COTY judging is our favorite time of year, as it’s our opportunity to view the fine work our members do every day.”
