Kirn Memorial Library

2. Batten didn't have a monopoly even on print advertising in Hampton Roads, much less all advertising. Again, if you weren't an advertiser, none of your business -- what he charged was what people were willing to pay. If they weren't willing to pay it, then there wouldn't have been any advertising in his publications, now would there have been? If you were an advertiser, then you had other options -- billboard, electronic, transit, etc. Nobody held a gun to your head.

What does this have to do with the library? Nothing. Take it to the off topic thread. Also he is always giving money to this region.

Yes, please Tel. You've made your point but i'm not going to allow you to hijack the thread. Please keep off-topic posts in off-topic.

I cannot remember, has there been any indication when the city might start on the new library.

All I can remember is them saying that it will happen about a decade sooner!

Will the new library be as big as the old Kirn building? Looking at the site, it doesn't look like it will be bigger unless you remove the Selden Arcade too.

Is the new library supposed to connect into the Seaboard building?

They are definitely working on the Seaboard building, preparing it to take over the role. What a waste of taxpayer money.

Vdogg -

Is it time to change the thread from "Kirn Memorial Library - where will it end up. . ." to Col. Samuel L. Slover Library?

[urbanlife]

You know it will be called the Slover Library.

In the end it's a waste of money. They have a building. They are destroying it just to justify a new one.
