Archtober Building of the Day Preview: Adams Street Library

As part of NYCxDESIGN, the Center for Architecture will host an Archtober preview featuring three building tours the week of May 22. Join us on Tuesday, May 23 for a tour of Brooklyn Public Library's Adam Street Branch by WORKac. 

The Adams Street Library is the Brooklyn Public Library’s first new branch to open in more than twenty years. Extensive, architect-led community outreach within neighboring Dumbo, Vinegar Hill, and the Farragut Houses indicated that children’s spaces and programming was lacking—and important—to residents. The design, therefore, puts children at its center, incorporating spaces for learning activities, story time, books, reading and views out to Brooklyn Bridge Park.
