Northeast Branch of the SPL readies to renovate, again

The busiest branch location in the entire Seattle Public Library system? Ours. Busy for patrons, and for construction.

An open house to show off another round of improvements for the Northeast Branch is being held on Saturday, October 5, from 2-3:30 PM (brief remarks at 2 PM).

From the open house event page:

Coming soon! A larger children’s area, family-friendly seating, more filtered computers for children and more self-service checkout stations.

City Librarian Marcellus Turner, Library Board members and representatives from Miller Hayashi Architects will explain the improvements and answer questions.

The Northeast Branch doubled in size after a major expansion in 2004. It was renovated most recently in 2009.

If you cannot make it to the open house yourselves, Ravenna Blog is planning on attending. And taking lots of notes and pictures, as is our custom.

  1. Love your schematics, posts, tweets, etc. I’ll stick with the simple stuff: photos of pumpkins at Hunter’s.

  2. Making home improvements can sometimes be really expensive but some improvements or repairs are unavoidable and if the necessary cash is
    not available you need to resort to some source of finance.
    Try putting in some nice stones, colorful mulches, plants, shrubs, flowers,
    or vines to boost the appearance of your landscaping. Before
    you get started, though, make sure you give yourself an advantage and help yourself avoid common errors by making use of the
    tips and techniques in this article.
