Situated prominently at the corner of South College Mall Road and East Moores Pike, this proposed Monroe County Public Library is designed as a vibrant community hub. The building blends function and form with a durable concrete structure accented by scattered green walls, offering both sustainable benefits and visual appeal. Inside, visitors will find dedicated areas for adult collections, children’s reading and play, teen engagement, and flexible meeting and programming rooms. Outdoor patio seating invites relaxation and connection, while the centerpiece of the design—a striking theater facing the southwest corner— anchors the library as a cultural landmark. Overlooking the intersection, this space is envisioned as a stage for local artists, comedians, film screenings, and community events, making the library not just a place to read, but a place to gather and grow.
