Construction Progress Video


Domenic Trichilo, our project’s General Contractor from Maystar Construction, talks with Doug Gilmour, Facilities Planning Engineer from the Region of Waterloo, about the underground parking garage progress and next steps.

Watch video here.


The garage portion of our library renovation project is a joint partnership between the Library, Region of Waterloo, City of Kitchener and Province of Ontario . . . and it’s coming along nicely!

The construction crews are taking a much need break for the Christmas holidays, but will be back at it in the New Year.

Construction Photo Update



Recent aerial photographs of our construction site show the progress being made on Phase One of the underground parking garage, located at the rear of the Main Library.

The final floor (P1) of the garage is being put into place; which will be followed by the construction of the new 25,000 square foot addition on top of the this portion of the garage.

When ready, the library will temporarily move into the new addition (with underground parking) while the next phase of the project takes over . . . the complete renovation of all three floors of the original library building, and the construction of the second half of the underground parking garage.
