A story in Metro reports that the new Halifax public library made a CNN top ten list based on its “eye-catching” design:
It isn’t even finished and already Halifax’s new central library is turning heads south of the border. American news and television network CNN included the project in its list of 10 eye-popping new buildings of 2014. CNN’s website describes the downtown building as blending “the distinctive atmosphere of local landscape with northern European design heritage.”
“We just think it’s totally fantastic,” said Paula Saulnier, interim CEO of Halifax Public Libraries. “I think we can all be proud.” Halifax’s new public library is the only North American project to have made the list, which was published on Thursday.
