At the turn of the new century, the idea of what a library needs to house to stay relevant is up for debate. A library is no longer defined as a house for physical books. The first bookless Library complete construction in 2010, at the University of Texas. A library is defined more as a gathering space to develop one's skills. So how do we address the changing methods of learning in the 21st century?
A contemporary community centre is proposed to address how the millenial generation learn. Rather than a single use library, it was more valuable to add a variety of programmatic coworking spaces.
With the train tracks physically dividing the neighbourhood, it was imperative to have the proposed site act as a connector. The lot is divided into 3 volumes at ground level, allowing social gathering at the intersection of the three roads.
