Vancouver Community Library Groundbreaking Scheduled for August 14
Vancouver -
Please wear shoes appropriate for construction zone
VANCOUVER, Wash.-- A groundbreaking ceremony will be held on Friday, August 14 at 1 p.m. for the new Vancouver Community Library. The event, which will be held at the corner of Evergreen and C Streets, will include speeches by dignitaries, information about the new building, and refreshments.
The event site is an unpaved construction zone with rough ground, so the library encourages attendees to wear appropriate shoes and to dress for the weather.
Opening in 2011, the new 83,000 square foot library is primarily funded by a library facilities bond measure passed by Vancouver voters in 2006. The approximately $37 million cost for the five-level structure is also supported by a $5 million anonymous private gift and donation of the land by Riverwest developer Killian Pacific.
