New Library and Civic Hall

At the meeting on Tuesday night Council moved on to the next stage of development of these exciting facilities, endorsing the concept plans for refurbishment and authorising the architects to proceed to detailed design. (Click on the images to enlarge)

The external appearance, for me, has visual elements of a book, a window to knowledge, and technology.

Cheryl Parrott, our Manager Library & Heritage has described the redeveloped Civic Centre Library and Hall as a focal point for the community. She describes it as providing an important social gathering point, offering a contemporary range of collections, facilities and innovative quality library, heritage and social services which support the intellectual, educational, cultural and social needs of the South Perth community. The facilities will be accessible and will be a welcoming place for people of all ages and backgrounds.
