Project Overview:
The new 12,500 sf Liberty Park Library relocates and doubles the size of an underserved library to provide 21st Century library services including a marketplace, program room, children’s discovery area, group study rooms, staff areas, and outdoor learning. Located in historic Liberty Park, designed by the Olmstead brothers in the early 1900’s, the library takes advantage of open space, views, and avoids removal of specimen trees. The community chose this site in the heart of a diverse area to serve as a catalyst for future reimagining of the underused park to build and strengthen neighborhood connections.
