Carnegie West Branch Library

1900 Fulton Road

History:

At 25,000 square feet, Carnegie West is Cleveland Public Library’s largest branch. Carnegie West opened in 1910 and was designed by Edward Tilton, the architect who designed four buildings for the U.S. Immigration Station on Ellis Island in New York. Carnegie West’s architecture can be described as modified Renaissance with elements of classical style. The building’s materials of brick, limestone, and terracotta provide a contrast of texture and color. Carnegie West was completely remodeled in 1979.
