New Somerville Library Planned for Union Square

I was happy to read recently about plans for a new main Somerville Public Library in Union Square.  Somerville has big ideas for Union Square revitilization and it turns out that relocating the main branch of the library is part of that vision. Exciting times for Union Square, with the Green Line, a new $45 million  library, and more.

The yellow brick building that currently houses the main branch of the Somerville Public Library was built in 1912 on Highland Avenue.

The 1912 library replaced the former library, pictured below, designed in 1884 in the Romanesque style by Somerville architect George F. Loring.
