The Ray Memorial Library, an historic building, was originally completed in 1904. This made updating accessibility and services to the building a major concern for the design process. To make the necessary improvements while also expanding the library’s current bookstacks and making space for new programs, an addition was planned for the southwest corner of the building. The addition allowed for expansion of the library’s bookstacks, while also allowing for the addition of a meeting room and young adult room.
This proposal for a new storage and office building for the Department of Marine Fisheries was designed to centralize equipment, personnel, and operations that are currently spread across multiple sites.
