At the Associated General Contractors of Connecticut (AGC) BuildCT Awards held on, Feb. 12, 2026, Manafort was honored with the Construction Manager/General Contractor Mid-Size Renovation Award for the Bloomfield Public Library — Prosser Library project.

This recognition reflects the collective effort and dedication of Manafort's team alongside the skilled contractors, subcontractors, design partners and client representatives who worked together to preserve and enhance this important community resource.

Manafort also was awarded the Construction Manager/General Contractor Award for New/Large Construction for its work on the Great Wolf Lodge Mashantucket project. This major destination highlights the exceptional coordination, craftsmanship and teamwork of all project partners involved, whose collaboration helped bring this complex and high-profile project to life, according to the company.

"These awards are a testament to the strength of collaboration across every level of the project teams," the company said. "Manafort is proud to work alongside outstanding contractors, subcontractors, partners and clients whose shared commitment to quality and excellence continues to drive successful outcomes across the region."

Manafort Brothers Inc. was selected to perform the civil and utility work, as well as the concrete construction for the new Great Wolf Lodge, a 549-room, 91,000-sq.-ft. family resort and indoor water park complex adjacent to the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Mashantucket, Conn.
