I've been posting about Buffalo's newest library since 2/2005, way before the Erie County budget crisis morphed into a diatribe about Erie County libraries in the Fall of 2005. Three months after the Merriweather Library opened, this past April, the construction fence still surrounded the place. Well you can see that it was finally removed. That happened last week. Something about the sealer used on the stamped concrete sidewalk - I heard. Still no plantings or benches.
Here's a related post about the Merriweather Library Opening. And another post about design issues - with all sorts of links.
Still the question remains what is to be done with the old library. In May 2005 I posted a few interior pics of the old library. Remember Bruce Jackson called the North Jefferson Branch (above) decrepit in February 2003. Which was hardley the case. Any suggestions? Let me know...

Doesn't the ornamental metal work aid the growth of the trees?
The building is growing on me...liking it more everyday (really).
