Seattle Public Library, Temporary Central Library
Seattle, Washington
Berschauer Phillips Construction Company, General Contractor

When the Seattle Public Library decided they needed a new central library they
decided to rebuild on the existing site. Due to the demolition of the existing
building and site preparation the central library would be closed for about two
years. The temporary facility was built in the space that will be the future Museum of History and Industry. The central focus is the three story tall lobby with the brightly colored stairway and walls. The lobby space is divided from the floor areas by a plastic panel wall system, which allows diffused sunlight to enter the reading areas. The building is illuminated by several different lighting types including High Bay and Low Bay metal halide fixtures and Low Bay fluorescent fixtures, continuous rows of fluorescent fixtures and track lighting. The lighting is controlled by an Intelligent Lighting Control System. We also installed the Seimens Fire Alarm System and the Chubb Security System cabling.
