This site is now an archive of the 2009-10 Storefront Library at 640 Washington Street. To follow the outcome of this project and see new work, visit us at Street Lab.

2017 Update:
“We are now investing $90 million in neighborhood branch libraries all across the city. And I can announce tonight that we listened to the community, and we are finally bringing library services back to the Chinatown neighborhood.”
– Mayor Marty Walsh’s State of the City Address, January 17, 2017.
