Ely Public Library

Project
Summary

Meyer Group worked closely with the City of Ely, the City Council, and JPJ Engineering on the brand new, state-of-the-art, public library. Meyer Group was hired by JPJ Engineering of Hibbing, MN to develop a concept for the new stand-alone facility. Located across the street from the historic Ely City Hall, the Library design included a children’s area, cozy seating nooks, private study rooms, and a public meeting space. Additional considerations include the selection of maintenance free sustainable building materials, the desire for natural light, patron comfort, and security and pedestrian access.
