Site work, paving and new construction of a library in Houston, Texas. Design plans call for the construction of a 20,000-square-foot library; for site work for a library; and for paving for a library.

The library will contain a multi-use meeting room, a modern children’s space, teen area, and a space for adults. Patrons will have access to new books, children’s and teen books, and access to many forms of technology.
