NEW YORK, July 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Engineering News-Record (http://enr.com), part of McGraw-Hill Construction (http://construction.com/) and the construction industry's leading provider of news, commentary and insights, today announced the launch of the new ENR Mobile News app, available at the iTunes App Store (http://bit.ly/ENR-itunes) and Google Play (http://bit.ly/ENR-Droid). The new app provides users with on-the-go news and furthers ENR's digital leadership within the industry.
