The location for the new library is wonderful!
WCLF worked several years to -
- Determine what size building is needed for a new library
- Find a location suitable for a new library
- Assure the selected location is capable of developing the library we need
Selected location
WCLF has purchased a
parcel on two lots about two blocks west of Putnam on
Grand River Avenue. The parcel has mature trees and a
wonderful setting on the south bank of the Red Cedar
River with views of Brookshire Golf course.
Plans for the building site
As of early 2007, there are no specific plans for the site. WCLF did obtain an architect's study of the site to determine if it would be sufficient to construct a library meeting our needs. The site will easily accomodate a building of 10,000 sf. It has the potential to expand the building to 15,000 sf also.
