Central Public Library exterior

About this Image

Description

The 'old' Central Public Library later to become the City Art Gallery in 1993. Photographed from the site of the 'original' (1893) library after it was demolished. The site became a grassed public area (sometimes referred to as the 'Civic Lawn' or 'Civic Square') before becoming the site of the Civic Administration Building from the late 1980s.
