Mission Branch Renovation Project
The San Francisco Public Library is currently renovating the Mission Branch Library. On behalf of the Library, Public Works initiated a feasibility study that provided a needs assessment and analyzed the cost and practicality of design options. The study recommended moving forward with renovation of the Mission Branch Library, given that this branch lacks space to hold quality programs and the building’s systems are at the end of their service life. The library, one of seven Carnegie branches, opened in 1915 and was designed by G. Albert Lansburgh, a famous Beaux Arts architect. The project aims to respect the vibrancy and culture of the Mission neighborhood while transforming the Mission Branch into an energy efficient, safe and resilient building. We plan to incorporate 21st Century library practices, building systems and technology into an historic neighborhood landmark.
Project is currently under construction.
