NEW CITY LIBRARY

Main Level with open collaboration, group study, forum seating, and mezzanine beyond.

New City Library, New City, New York
The planned work at the New City Library includes a modest 3400sf addition and a significant interior renovation and reorganization to fully update and improve the important public spaces within the building. The existing program remains, while the addition to the north of the building will employ complementary brick colors and metal panel varieties to make a subtle but clear distinction between new and existing architecture. New outdoor spaces will accompany the refreshed interior and will help expand the capacity of the library to host events and enhance its offering of programs for patrons. Minor site circulation adjustments are proposed to better orchestrate visitor traffic and permit safer pedestrian movements across the site and into the building.

Project Area: 33,000 SF
