Marc-Favreau library – Montreal

2023

“I particularly remember visiting Marc-Favreau library which although is currently beside a large area of construction- I believe has been built and designed with quality in mind. The library is directly beside the Rosemont metro station and sits in front of many bus routes. There is a large green space behind the library with a garderie attached to the building. Children play outside in the winter and summer while local resident bring their dogs or simply walk through the green space during a break in their day. The library is full of windows and brings in light in every aspect of the building. Kids areas are downstairs while quieter areas are upstairs with desks, study rooms, reading rooms etc.” (Booklet Positive Lived Experiences of Quality in the Built Environment 2023, p.34).
