Durham County’s Main Library, located in downtown Durham, underwent a major expansion and renovation. At 37 years old, this much needed transformation was the final step of the regional library plan implemented by the County. The library footprint was reconfigured for ease of use and enhanced visibility throughout the building. A prominent outdoor public plaza was also incorporated for programs and events. A technology center supports several activities including business training, cultural education, and teaching/networking. An expanded North Carolina Collection is also included. Falcon was selected to provide materials testing and special inspections during construction.
