Richardson Public Library
Richardson, Texas
Construction Cost: $2.5M
Completion Date: 1995
PGAL designed the first major renovation of the building since its construction in the sixties afforded the opportunity to upgrade finishes, vertical movement, technology and overall planning. In addition, the complete replacement of the central plan presented coordination and phasing challenges to the design team.
The children's area and research were important areas of emphasis in this newly upgraded facility. A general feeling of openness and fresh image is prevalent in that design. New lighting and ADA compliance were key factors in the project.
