The old Birmingham Central Library in better times on 2nd March 2010.
It is currently being demolished, rather hurriedly, which may not be unrelated to the fact that the building's exemption from listing runs out on January 1st.
This sort of architecture isn't everyone's cup of tea but I strongly suspect that the demolition of the library will be regretted after the passage of a few decades. We treated our Victorian architecture with similar contempt until recently.

The North Community Library in La Crosse, Wisconsin, during its last day of operation on June 18, 2026, after nearly 84 years of service. Opening on August 31, 1942, this branch library’s exterior was fashioned as an English Tudor style bungalow in order to blend in with its residential surroundings. Its closure was due to city budget issues.
Each with its own pastel colors, and its with its own tree stump - this extended little library is a big delight to my eyes.
A fabulous place, open on a Sunday... and it is even a refuge should there ever be a disaster in the neighbourhood! Plenty to read while the services sort it out...
