Two Public Meetings for New Central Library Design

Architects from Meyer, Scherer & Rockcastle and Potter Lawson will hold two public meetings for the next phase of the Central Library design. The first of those meetings is scheduled for Thursday, February 24, 7-9 pm, at the Madison Senior Center, 330 West Mifflin St. The schematic design for the Central Library was presented in December. In the coming months, the design team will further develop that design and gather public input. At the first meeting in February, a mid-way design will be available for public comment and feedback. The second meeting, scheduled for Thursday, April 7, 7-9 pm, will present the final working design. This design development phase of the Central Library project revises and expands the schematic design from 2010 to incorporate all the details and specifications required for construction. Construction is expected to start in Fall of 2011 and be completed in 2013. Architect slideshows and videorecordings of past public meetings and schematic design plans are available on the library's web site at http://www.madisonpubliclibrary.org/central. The new design as presented on February 24 will be added to the library's web site shortly after the public meeting.
