Library Groundbreaking Ceremonies Held
A ceremonial
groundbreaking for the second of two new branch libraries for the Albany
Public Library was held May 11, 2009. The branch, located on New
Scotland Avenue, was named in honor of the late
John J. Bach,
former Albany City School District superintendent, avid library supporter
and local resident. His daughter, library trustee Ellen Bach, spoke at
the ceremony along with several other dignitaries including Mayor Gerald
Jennings, Assemblyman Ron Canastrari, DASNY Executive Director Paul Williams
and Library Board President Dennis Gaffney.
On April 30, 2009, a
ceremony was held for the new
Arbor Hill /
West Hill Branch Library.
This new branch is located on Henry Johnson Boulevard between First and
Second Streets. When built, it will be the first library serving the Arbor
Hill community in 47 years and the first ever serving the West Hill
neighborhood.
Both library branches were designed by
Goldman + Hom Architects with the intent to receive a LEED Silver Rating.
