The Bridge Arts Centre in Easterhouse won the British Construction Industry (BCI)
Regeneration Award 10 Oct 2007, at the BCI Awards in London. The Bridge Arts Centre was also a finalist in the BCI Public Building Award and the Prime Minister’s Better Public Building Award, an award launched by the Prime Minister in 2000 to encourage high-quality design in new public buildings.

The Bridge Arts Centre was the only Scottish project shortlisted for these awards and competed against a number of high-profile London-based projects. The building has already won six other awards this year including the Scottish Design Awards 2007 and the RIBA national awards and is currently further shortlisted for the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland’s Andrew Doolan Award

The jury citation described the building as an example of ‘urban regeneration at its most powerful’ and commented on the building’s ability to ‘lift the spirit of all who engage with it’.
