Brooklyn Heights Library thrives at temporary location
The former Brooklyn Heights Library building at 280 Cadman Plaza is currently a pile of rubble as it undergoes a major overhaul. While construction continues on the structure, the library found a temporary new home at Our Lady of Lebanon at 109 Remsen St.
The interim library is a bright, roomy, air-conditioned space that is fully stocked with as many books as it can hold, which is roughly 17,000, as opposed to the 70,000 that were housed at the Cadman Plaza location. Patrons can access books from other branches in the comfortable confines of the library’s temporary home.
