The comprehensive renovation of the Alabama Public Library Service Building entails a multifaceted scope of work, emphasizing the enhancement of both aesthetics and infrastructure. A pivotal aspect was the meticulous revamping of the existing lobby space, where careful consideration was given to modernization while preserving the building’s unique identity.
