Mount Kisco Public Library

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams NY Realty * Licensed Associate Broker

Mount Kisco's new library is slated to be completed this coming Spring!  What a great way to greet the season of beginnings.   Library front

The original library was built in 1961 and in 2005, the Mount Kisco voters approved the construction of a new library - a two story, 18,000 square foot building built on the existing site and expanding into the area where the old Mount Kisco Post Office used to be.   

An impressive sight, it promises to meet the expanding needs of our community.  The building blends right in with the existing historical architecture.  In addition, Mount Kisco's newest addition will be green, featuring the installation of geothermal technology that will heat and cool the building, low VOC paint, thermal windows, energy efficient lighting and much more.   

The two ground floor entrances (from Main Street & Shopper's Park) will make it more convenient to the parking area and the entire building will be handicapped accessible.  

The new library's amenities will include a silent reading room, a reference section, study rooms, browsing areas for popular books and media, an expanded community room, a children's room, a teen room and a multi purpose room.  There will be restrooms on both levels and an advanced security system.   

There will be access to computers throughout the building and wireless Internet will be available for laptops.   

I, for one, can't wait for the new Mount Kisco Public Library to open!   Library side

Sandy - A library is such an important place in a community, and I am sure everyone awaits the new library.  This is one of my favorite subject to write about, I was studying library science and did work in a library in my earlier years.

Sandy, Libraries are such a useful part of every community.   The silent reading room is a great idea so that children who aren't always easy to keep quiet can be kept away from readers who don't want to be around them.

LOL!  Jennifer - somehow I can see you in a library - you are always full of all sorts of info (and luckily, you like to share!)  ;-)

Jane, you're right about the silent reading room.  As much as I love to watch kids enjoy themselves, there are times when it can get very distracting!  :-)

Sandy,

In this day of hearing too many libraries being closed because of the crunch in most towns, this is great news.

I agree Dan, we are so lucky that we (well, the powers that be) got this started when we did.  Can you imagine the expense had we waited???

Thanks for stopping by!
