BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY
BOSTON, MABoston Public Library explores a new public library in Boston’s Chinatown neighborhood. The library will act as a home for the vibrant Chinatown community, symbolizing its resilience in the face of numerous historically disruptive urban changes.
Focused on being a center for community, my library opens below grade intended for social interaction through the uplifting of the library core program. These exterior living room spaces, Library+ Program, are connected to the main library spaces through connecting views and circulation.
The proposed design enables the Chinatown community to inhabit this public space in a way that uplifts culture, education, and recreation for its residents and members
