Green Lake Library

Green Lake and West Seattle Libraries were rehabilitated to accommodate library service changes and improve safety and energy performance. The projects exemplify a careful balance of historic building elements with new infrastructure to open another century of use for a pair of Carnegie libraries.

Lively engagement results in extraordinary places.
