Group 4’s design will improve service and <br />enhance the customer experience as well as address life cycle <br />maintenance needs in the 500,000 square foot, two city block <br />complex. <br />Group 4 worked with Cincinnati-Hamilton County Public Library <br />(CHPL) leadership and staff to develop a comprehensive <br />new vision for the Main Library, including reorganized public <br />services and operations. <br />Phase 1 of the redesign includes a new cascading stair in the <br />five-story atrium that connects all public floors for improved <br />navigation and wayfinding. The children’s library moves to the <br />first floor of the south building, providing expanded space for <br />children’s programming as well as improved technology and <br />collections. The “Teen Spot” will move closer to the children’s <br />library as well to better support use by siblings and families <br />who come to the library together. The redesign of the entry <br />plaza will increase visibility and connectivity in the south <br />building, and significantly expand opportunities for outdoor <br />programming and events. Elevator and skylight upgrades <br />round out the maintenance improvements in this first phase. <br />EXHIBIT C - PROPOSAL
