Description
This frontal view of the Learning Resource Center at Sacramento City College taken in the fall of 1998. The 18 million dollar, three-story structure replaced the previous library that had been built in 1937. After 12-years of debate - posing frustrated Los Rios College District officials and students against architectural historians - the original building was finally razed. Preservationists felt that Depression Era building, an pproved addition to the National Register of Historic Places, was a model of Art Moderne architecture. The new 80,000 square foot structure was designed by the Sacramento firm of Stafford King Wiese and opened in August 1998.
