![EPL Central Library: “… the original downtown library was located on Macdonald Drive (today Jasper Ave) and 100th Street. The original downtown library was funded by a donation from Andrew Carnegie and completed in 1923 (a temporary downtown library had existed prior to this). The building was small though, and the city’s growth boom in the post-WWII years fueled demand for a larger building. The new building was designed in the Brutalist style, common for many public buildings constructed in Edmonton in the 1960s.”[via]](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_led2a5OWJ21qdt6jzo1_500.gif)
