Construction is moving right along!
Framing is up and construction is moving right along! Renovations include completing the second floor of the library, where 18,000 sq. ft. of space has remained unfinished since the library was built in 2004, creating new interactive spaces for kids, adding more study rooms for all ages, an expanded teen space, and more. For more information, updates, and to track our progress, visit rtdl.org/projects.
