Winners of the 2008 Monument Awards, the Washington Region's most prestigious real estate design competition, will be announced on Thursday, September 4 at its annual awards gala held at the brand new Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center at National Harbor.

Chantilly, VA (PRWEB) August 21, 2008 -- Winners of the 2008 Monument Awards, the Washington Region's most prestigious real estate design competition, will be announced on Thursday, September 4 at its annual awards gala.

For builders, developers and architects throughout the Washington Region, The Monument Awards gala is widely considered the biggest night of the year. Anticipation for this year's event is even greater because it's being hosted at the brand new Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center at National Harbor.

"National Harbor is far and away the region's most exciting new destination," said Jane Lyons, Public Relations Chair of the 2008 Monument Awards and Principal of Lyons & Sucher Advertising. "We're especially thrilled because this year's Monument Awards gala is the culminating day-one event of the Greater Washington Builders Expo, which is also being held at National Harbor. The Monument Awards gala is the perfect way to cap off a day of networking and reconnecting with industry friends."

Nominees of the 2008 Monument Awards also appreciate the fact that winners will be announced about a month and a half earlier this year. The timing of this year's gala coincides with the beginning of the fall selling season, which means winners will have the entire season to tout their achievements to prospective homebuyers.

Tickets may still be available. Those interested in attending the 2008 Monument Awards Gala are encouraged to check ticket availability at MonumentAwards.com
