PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Georgia State University’s Library North Addition and Renovation created a dramatic new entrance for the library after the demolition of North Plaza and Kell Hall. This new space allows movement between the new campus greenway and the entrance to Library North.
The addition includes a new lobby, monumental staircase and a pair of elevators for vertical movement to the second level of the original library. The exterior is clad in a glass curtain wall that brings in ample natural light and offers great views of the city. New limestone adds an earthy tone to help match the library’s original design. The roof is an accessible terrace with pavers and landscaping that is a perfect place for students to study.
Architect: Collins Cooper Carusi
