It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977[1] and designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1976.[2] HistoryThe Escanaba Public Library was constructed with $20,000[2] in funds donated by Andrew Carnegie.[3] The city of escanaba promised additional yearly operation funds.[2] The building was designed by local architect Theodore Lohff.[3] The Carnegie library opened in May 1903.[3] In 1992, the city began construction oon a new city hall and library complex.[2] The library moved to the new location in 1995,[2] and the old Carnegie building was sold to private owners, who refurbished it with the intention of converting it into a private home.[4] DescriptionThe Escanaba Public Library is a one-story Classical Revival building constructed of red brick and Lake Superior Sandstone.[3] It sits on a rough-faced stone foundation.[3] The front facade has a portico entrance with an entablature and pediment supported by four Ionic columns.[3] Windows flanked by pilasters and topped with lintels lighten the mass of the building.[3] The building is topped with a cornice and pediments on each side;[3] a balustrade which originally ran between the pediments was removed in 1928.[4] A low dome originally topped building; it was removed in 1958.[3] An upper dome still is in place.[4] The rear of the building is of simpler design, constructed of brick and containing simple windows with stone sills.[3] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{National Register of Historic Places}}2. ^1 2 3 {{cite web | title = History of the Escanaba Public Library | publisher = Escanaba Public Library | url = http://www.uproc.lib.mi.us/epl/libhist.html | accessdate = April 18, 2012 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20160304065758/http://www.uproc.lib.mi.us/epl/libhist.html# | archive-date = 2016-03-04 | dead-url = yes | df = }} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 {{cite web |url=http://www.mcgi.state.mi.us/hso/sites/4232.htm |title=Carnegie Public Library |publisher=Michigan State Housing Development Authority: Historic Sites Online |accessdate=April 18, 2012 |archiveurl=https://archive.today/20121225105946/http://www.mcgi.state.mi.us/hso/sites/4232.htm# |archivedate=2012-12-25 |deadurl=yes |df= }} 4. ^1 2 {{cite news|title=Work continues on old Esky library |author=Dionna Harris |date=May 3, 2008 |url=http://www.dailypress.net/page/content.detail/id/503275/Work-continues-on-old-Esky-library.html |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303230420/http://www.dailypress.net/page/content.detail/id/503275/Work-continues-on-old-Esky-library.html |archivedate=2016-03-03 |df= }} 7 : Libraries on the National Register of Historic Places in Michigan|Neoclassical architecture in Michigan|Government buildings completed in 1902|Buildings and structures in Delta County, Michigan|Michigan State Historic Sites|Carnegie libraries in Michigan|National Register of Historic Places in Delta County, Michigan |
