I am one of those Snohomish citizens who remembers fondly the city’s Carnegie Library prior to the 1968 addition with its lawn and ancient cherry tree on the corner of First and Cedar.
The Carnegie Foundation Board has worked tirelessly over the years since 2005 to maintain and restore the 1910 building but has been attacked and vilified in recent months. What is that about?
I have always said I own a sledge hammer and would be happy to volunteer to help demolish the once-needed-but-now-unnecessary addition to the original library.
Let’s not let threats and intimidation divert us from our goal or returning the Carnegie to its original configuration. Come on, people. Let’s get on with it.
