A library for the town of Milford : an addition to and redefinition of three buildings in an urban context

Thesis (M. Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1980. / MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH. / Throughout the course of my architectural education, I have become increasingly committed to the idea of reinforcing the existing fabric of our towns and cities, and intrigued with the need to sometimes redefine the existing architecture within those cities. This thesis concerns itself with the design of a library on a site In Milford, Massachusetts. The site is defined by three proximate, albeit dissimilar buildings, one of which is the original and still operating Milford Public library. This thesis attempts to resolve the urban issues implied by the existing town context, the architectural issues implied by the three buildings on the site, and the programmatic needs of a contemporary library. / by Kate Dundes. / M.Arch.
