Library broke ground on new Driving Park Branch earlier today COLUMBUS—Columbus Metropolitan Library (CML) broke ground earlier today on the new Driving Park Branch at 1422 E. Livingston Ave. (at Livingston and Kelton avenues), three blocks west of the current branch (1566 E. Livingston Ave). Today’s groundbreaking marks the first of 10 library locations (including Main Library) to be either renovated or relocated by 2020. Driving Park is CML’s first building project in nearly 10 years. More than 250 community members were on hand to celebrate the groundbreaking. Ceremony speakers included: Roger Sugarman, CML Board of Trustees President Patrick Losinski, CML CEO Dale Heydlauff, President, American Electric Power (AEP) Foundation The Honorable Andrew Ginther, President, Columbus City Council The Honorable Charleta Tavares, State Senator, District 15 Dr. Dan Good, Superintendent/CEO, Columbus City Schools Brea Carter and Tamaus Williams, Driving Park VolunTeens The event also included dignitaries, community members, design and construction teams and children. CML understands that great libraries create stronger communities, and each branch is an essential hub that reflects the unique needs of the neighborhood it serves. Some of CML’s 21 locations are 40 to 50 years old and inadequate to meet the demands of a growing 21st century community. Demands and expectations will continue to grow, along with the population of Franklin County. CML’s aspirational building program is the result of a community-wide process that will continue to serve the needs of Franklin County well into the future. The plan is a multi-phased comprehensive blueprint that reinvents and revitalizes the entire 600,000 square feet maintained by the library. Phase one of CML’s aspirational building program will transform and significantly upgrade seven urban branches (Driving Park, Whitehall, Parsons, Martin Luther King, Northside, Northern Lights, Shepard) and two suburban branches (Hilliard and Dublin). In addition, changes to Main Library will represent a major investment in downtown Columbus and the Discovery District. The program’s estimated $120 million cost will be funded through debt financing as well as public and private support.
