The National Housing &Rehabilitation Association (NH &RA) created the "Timmy Awards" as a tribute to Boston
architect and preservation advocate J. Timothy Anderson, singular figure in the preservation industry who
pioneered the adaptive reuse of historic buildings. The Roshek Building Redevelopment project was one of
three finalists in the category of "Best Historic Rehab Utilizing New Markets Tax Credits ".
A sincere thank you goes out to all involved in this historic project and the wonderful work provided in the
application for this award. This project is truly the definition of "Enormous Team Effort "!

Jeannie,
Juanita asked that I pass along a photo (or two) of the Timmy Award won by the Roshek Redevelopment
project. Jeff Morton and John Gronen accepted the award from the National Housing & Rehabilitation
Association in Boston last Tuesday, Oct 19. Not sure if you're looking for any additional information on this, but
I'll include some, just in case:
- According to award presenters: Although the design, construction challenges and overall project impacts were
impressive, the "clincher" for winning the prestigious national award was the tremendous collaborative effort
that was developed /implemented to make this project happen. They felt these many partnerships, along with
the tremendous community impact, were the deciding factors in selection of the Roshek Building as winner of
the award.
- Roshek is the first Iowa project to ever win a Timmy Award
- Only four Iowa projects have ever been a Timmy Award finalist and three of those four are Dubuque projects
1. Roshek Redevelopment, Dubuque, IA (2010) Winner
2. German Bank Building, Dubuque, IA (2009) Finalist
3. The Fowler Building, Waterloo, IA (2009) Finalist
4. Dubuque Casket Company, Dubuque, IA (2007) Finalist
Please don't hesitate to let me know of any questions. Thank you.
