Pavilion on the Park
The new DC Southwest Library brings a sustainable and unique design to replace the previous outdated library.

Comprised of a mass timber structure, this innovative building involves such elements as a world-first timber folded plate roof using Dowel Laminated Timber.
Supporting the steel and timber lateral system were glulam beams and columns with detailed timber-to-steel connections.
The Library achieved LEED Platinum Status, implementing sustainable strategies such as regionally sourced material, solar panels on the green roof, and timber throughout..
