Building of the Day: Hunters Point Library

Architect: Steven Holl Architects

Hunters Point Library is the Queens Public Library’s first new library to be added to its system since 2007, bringing to 63 the total number of branches in the borough. Designed by Steven Holl Associates, the library comprises 22,000 square feet with soaring ceilings and offers spectacular views of Manhattan, providing patrons free access to information and an unrivaled experience of learning and discovery. Its prominent location on the Queens side of the East River signals the critical importance of public libraries and their continuing evolution.

This program is organized in conjunction with Archtober, New York City’s month-long architecture and design festival.
