Construction Photos- Week 24

Here are some more pictures of the construction process, as well as a few from a new perspective.

This is the back of the building, but also where the main entrances will be.  The yellow awnings in the corner of the building is where the public will enter, the brown awning with the open doors are where the courier will come in, and the door under the beige awning is for staff.  The meeting room is off to the left, with its own windows.

This is from the street side of the building, the iron railing will be the outdoor cafe space.

This is the drive-up window and drive-up bookdrop from the outside...

and from the inside.

This is the walk up book drop, next to the staff entrance.

This is the courier room.

This is the display area of the library, as seen from the service desk.

The cafe space.

Another view of the display space.

Another view of the public entrance and the service desk.   The brownish metal squares are part of the stairs up to the children's area.

The history room

The meeting room.

 

The adult nonfiction area.

The quiet study rooms and the adult fiction area.

Many of the windows will have countertops in front of them so people will have places to read and to use their laptops.

The reading area looking out over the cafe's windows.

Another view of the reading area, showing more of the countertop supports.

Construction Photos - week #22

These are the pictures Jessica took today.

The orange crate is where the business center will be and the reference desk will be beside it

The window and doors lead into the workroom, and the circ desk will be in front of them.

They have started working on the elevator.

The quiet study rooms will have glass walls and doors (and a drop down ceiling).

The history rooms ceiling grid is in.

This door will be the main entrance into the library.
