Kings Park's New Look

One of the questions that needed to be answered as the Town Planning Board prepared their final approval for the Library's Expansion was the look of the Kings Park Building. Some community leaders were thinking they wanted a more traditional appearance than the current library. At a recent meeting, the Library Trustees decided that since the residents would be living with the library building for years to come, we should see if we could dress the exterior in a style that satisfied the Town Planners, the community leaders and the Library.



Library architect Roger Smith and his staff went back to the drawing board. The rendering shown here was first developed as a series of pencil sketches that evolved into this final look. In the end everyone was pleased.

The Kings Park drawing was the first to be completed since more of the detail had been created for the community leaders. Renderings are currently being prepared for Nesconset and Commack. The process of creating the final renderings is laborious. The library wanted to wait until the approval process was coming to a close to avoid revisions. The Main Library in Smithtown is still awaiting final approval by the Village of The Branch. We will post the other drawings as soon as they are done, so check back or subscribe to the blog for updates.
