Johnson County Library at Lenexa City Center

Innovative Design and Unifying Spaces

Completing the local civic complex, Lenexa City Center Library’s vibrant stature welcomes residents of all ages and serves as a natural gathering place. The LEED silver certified building features covered parking, multi-level entrances and drive-thru book collection. The enriching environment provides access to ideas and information, meeting spaces for collaboration and independent areas to utilize its vast resources. The 40,000 sq. ft. library features floor-to-ceiling mosaics created by a local artist that embellish the atrium, while a unique ribbon railing curves around the building and balcony. Space is dedicated to children of all ages, including space for story time and children’s programming. A drive-through window for library pick-up and returns makes access to books convenient for patrons. Patron convenience is at the forefront of the new library branch. The project aims to serve patrons, while being a visible part of the community residents fully utilize and are proud of.
