Frances Howard Goldwyn Regional Branch Library

Frank Gehry
1983-6



Named for the mother of Samuel Goldwyn, Jr. (the donor of the library), this structure is more symmetrical than the usual Gehry work. The steel-gated entrance is at the center, down a short stairway, while reading rooms are in the second story of each side unit of the structure.
