The Maggie Edmond Enduring Architecture Award is an architecture prize presented annually since 2003 at the Victorian Architecture Awards by the Victorian Chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects (AIA). The award is presented to recognise long lasting, authentic and enduring architecture with usually more than 25 years since the completion of construction.

Background
The Award recognises achievement for the design of buildings of outstanding merit, which remain important as high quality works of architecture when considered in the contemporary context. Nominations for the award can be made by AIA members, non–members and non–architects, but adequate material and information supporting the nomination must be provided for consideration of the jury.
Recipients of the state-based award are eligible for consideration for the National Award for Enduring Architecture presented later in the same year, as part of the Australian National Architecture Awards.
In 2023 the award became a named award, recognising Melbourne based architect Maggie Edmond, recipient of the first Victorian Enduring Architecture Award in 2003 for the Chapel of St Joseph in Mont Albert North designed by her firm Edmond & Corrigan and built in 1978.[1][2]
The average age of buildings that have won the Award is 39 years (2003–2024).
