Architect: Cesar Pelli & Associates Architects [Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects]
Interesting Facts/Records (in own words):
ocated at the north end of Nicollet Mall, the Minneapolis Central Library will be a vital civic landmark and cultural center for downtown Minneapolis - and the region. The shifting urban geometry carries through the public space of the building. The resulting "courtyard" informs the shape of the galleria and the wing-like roof that spans over the Nicollet and Hennepin entrances. The five story, glass-enclosed galleria, flanked by plazas on Nicollet and Hennepin, will become the "living room" for Minneapolis. Two levels of below-grade parking and three future skyway connections tie into the city's pedestrian and vehicular patterns.
- Before demolishing the old library building, the Minneapolis Public Library moved into facilities at Marquette Plaza , two blocks to the north and east. This largest branch of the library system will remain there until completion of this new building.
- This is Cesar Pelli's second major commission in Minneapolis, the first being the landmark Wells Fargo Center .
- Before Gateway District urban renewal and the construction of the previous main library, the Bank of Minneapolis Buildi.. stood on the northeast corner of this site.
- This is one of approximately $500 million in arts and cultural institution expansions scheduled for completion in Minneapolis through 2007. Others include the Walker Art Center Expansio.. , the new Guthrie Theater , an expansion of The Minneapolis Institute .. , and an expansion of the Children's Theater Company.
- The proposed Minnesota Planetarium and Space Discovery Center atop the New Central Library could be completed near the fall of 2007.
- The new Central Library is scheduled to open on May 20, 2006.
