Riviera Beach Community Library - Pasadena, MD

The design of the new Riviera Beach Library takes it from a 10,500-square-foot facility to a 20,000-square-foot modern library with a café, WiFi, leisure spaces and floor-to-ceiling windows.

The new library will be a replacement of an existing library on the same site, situated on the corner of Duvall Highway and Fort Smallwood Road, but will be newly sited for greater visibility and prominence as a gateway landmark to the Riviera community.

The library is going to be able to accomodate the needs of the diverse users for the 21st century, and it’s going to be a state-of-the-art facility.

An Alpha VCI.10 system was utilized for installation. This panel subframing system offers visible rivet fixing for fiber cement, HPL or fiber concrete panels. Rivet attachment guarantees high pull-out values and ease of installation.
