Hello and thanks for the great question. As you noted, the MLK library is part of the large, multi-building Circle Square Development project. Here is a link to an article with information about the development (https://www.thelandcle.org/stories/construction-on-circle-square-development-could-begin-in-march).
Planning and design for the library is almost complete with groundbreaking on track for 2021. The Library will occupy the first two floors of an 11-story apartment building called Library Lofts. The new MLK Branch will be larger, brighter with more meeting space and open space with dedicated areas for children and teens. Once complete, it will be our largest Library branch. It is expected to be completed in 2023. The current MLK Library will remain open until the new building is ready.
Please keep an eye on this page for updates and to follow the progress.
