Oregon City Public Library
The Oregon City Public Library is a 14,000 sf addition to the historical Carnegie Building. Placed along the back of the existing building, the addition preserves the historic structure’s original entry. A former exterior masonry wall now serves as a connection between the old and the new in the central two-story atrium space.
Details
Conducted in two phases, the project also includes renovations and seismic upgrades to the existing 103-year-old historic structure. Utilized by different groups throughout the community, the new addition contains community meeting rooms as well as a large, playful children's reading area.
