LeMessurier’s recently completed renovation of the Roslindale Branch of the Boston Public Library with Leers Weinzapfel Associates has won the Mayor Thomas M. Menino Legacy Award from Preservation Massachusetts. The 1960s library at the corner of Washington and Poplar Streets was initially built atop and utilized the foundation of a Boston city firehouse. The renovation included a completely reconfigured interior and reimagined main entry across from Adams Park with a bright multi-colored terra-cotta baguette wall and a new entry canopy.
