5. Greenpoint Library and Environmental Education Center

Once it is complete, the revamped Greenpoint Library and Environmental Education Center will replace the existing and outdated one-story library. The design features enlarged indoor and outdoor spaces, two rooftop gardens and facilities like reading rooms, a lab area for interactive projects and a community event space.

Situated in close proximity to Newtown Creek, the branch will leverage its location to highlight various community-based education programs.
