New library expansion includes 20000 square feet added space
The plan adds outlying 20000 square feet and renovates about 47000 square feet of current space. A 70 foot wide plaza will stretch to a 250 space parking garage south of the library, creating an amphitheater like area for up to 500 people. The auditorium doubles to 200 seats, with three new meeting rooms and several study rooms, and the children's area doubles in size. A drive thru book lane and new southeast entrance facing Vermont Street are planned, with energy components aiming to cut building energy use by about half.
