TDIndustries’ One Frost Project Wins ABC Pyramid Award

Dallas, Texas – TDIndustries has been honored with the Pyramid Award in the Mechanical, over $10 million category for its One Frost project in San Antonio. Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) honored 98 projects collectively worth $2.4 billion at the 27th annual Excellence in Construction® Awards in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

“This was a one-of-a-kind project,” says Wesley Baker, Vice President of San Antonio Construction. “The complexity, pace, and design of One Frost required a large and very focused team to complete.

Located on a 16.7-acre site in the Westover Hills area of the city, the facility incorporates an ecofriendly design and conservation measures, while integrating state-of-the-art building controls systems to increase efficiency throughout the campus.
