The 2025 Commercial Real Estate Awards Gala will be held May 15, 2025, at The Palace at Somerset Park.
NAIOP NJ will present the following Deal of the Year Awards: Industrial DOY, Office DOY, Mixed-Use DOY, and Emerging Market DOY. FOR 2025 the judges may also select one of the finalists to receive a “Transformation Award.”
The Emerging Market DOY Category will include submissions from GRM Municipalities, Energy, Healthcare, Film and Cannabis. “Government-restricted municipalities” (“GRM”) include the communities of Paterson, Trenton, and Atlantic City and JUST added Camden, East Orange and New Brunswick
Please provide all requested information in sufficient detail for the judges to thoroughly evaluate the merits of your deal. Provide any additional information you believe would be helpful in judging and evaluating your deal and its impact on the community and the real estate market. The size of your deal is not as important as its creativity, complexity, and impact on the community. We encourage that deals of all sizes be submitted.
♦ Previous winners may not submit a new application for the same project site in the same category for four (4) years.
♦ All DOY applicants selected as finalists must agree to have their deal/project featured at a future NAIOP NJ program, if so requested.
