Library Floor Plan

ID#: 00000

TITLE: A NEW VISION FOR LIBRARY ARCHITECTURE

DATE:1927

NOTES: Myron Hunt’s design—an imaginative combination of formal Italian style and Spanish architecture–was selected for the Central Library.

 

Its unique approach eliminated some aspects of more traditional library designs. He located all public services on one floor with connections to staff areas.
