建造economics pioneer ENR’s Elsie Eaves is still drawing recognition today. Eaves joined ENR in 1926, five years after the magazine introduced its Construction Cost Index, but she was the one who made the indexes an industry standard.

Scott Lewis, ENR research director and staff historian, filled in more details about Eaves. She managed ENR’s business news department for 30 years, he reports, where she pioneered ways of measuring the market for construction materials and wages.

In the 1930s, she directed an inventory of needed construction projects to support passage of federal loan-grant legislation that helped revive construction during the Great Depression.

She also has been active on the program development team for the Groundbreaking Women in Construction event. “I’m proud to be part of that group, and to follow in Elsie’s footsteps as Economics Editor. ENR’s cost data has evolved over the years, and will continue to do so in the future, but Elsie’s indexes remain vital to understanding and using our data,” Zevin says.
