Ottawa Public Library, Beaverbrook Branch

This major expansion and renovation doubled the size of the Ottawa Public Library’s second-highest circulating location, Beaverbrook Branch. The updated building offers a variety of welcoming, engaging, light-filled spaces to access books and technology. The two-storey addition establishes a far more substantial visual presence for the library, welcoming patrons with an entrance terrace and a transparent floor-to-ceiling glass facade.
