WE HAVE A DATE FOR THE CENTRAL LIBRARY OPENING!!!! 2026!!!!
#AHHH#our central library in the middle of the cbd got shut back at the end of 2018/2019#after structural integrity investigations found less than 10% of the building was earthquake safe#and therefore could collapse and harm/kill many people#the library is like 5-6 levels hugh and had a cafe and thousands of books#emergency ones had to open up and most the selection is in official storage areas or got moved to out smaller local libraries#deliberations and inspection took until the end of last year because the council and diff mayors had different ideas on what to do#but not we have a solid date as to when the rebuilding/strengthening will end#this is super huge because its one of the few locations in town you could just sit down and study/relax at with#internet connection/disabled and gender neutral toilets/places to sit and rest#really really really looking forward to being able to go back there because i love going through the nonfiction sections so much#and they had a huuuge section entire floors full
