The New York Public Library Cuts The Ribbon On Its Completely-Transformed Central Circulating Library - New York City, NY - "The transformed Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library shows our city is coming back better than ever before" said Mayor Bill de Blasio.
The New York Public Library recently reopened after its $200 million renovation. The new library the features 400,000 books, a 42-ft atrium and rooftop terrace.
As New York City enters its next chapter of recovery and renewal, it is critical that its social infrastructure parks, schools, public libraries and so on be as strong as possible. After more than a year of isolation, hardship and fear, we need places to gather and where learning and opportunity are readily and freely accessible.
