Project Description
FROM THE ARCHITECTS:
Using the central organizing principles of governmental transparency, democracy, clarity and sustainability, BCJ worked with the City to develop a new Civic Center, creating what Council Member Ed Selich hailed as a ‘new civic vision’ for the City. A new city hall, library addition and new garage bound a new public outdoor space, the city’s ‘civic green.' This civic core opens onto a new 17-acre park that includes a restored wetland.
