Galewood Montclare Revisited/Sayre Park

The charmingly unkempt old storefront on Grand Avenue is no more for the Galewood library branch.  Apparently, CPL was leasing the space and when renegotiating the terms, found that the owner was in arrears on taxes.  This caused a quick scramble for new temporary digs, which landed in the Rutherford/Sayre Park field house.  It is a tiny little space, with a few shelves and tables-- but it's there for the community to browse and use for book pick up and drop off. 

The park itself is worth a look, a brand new playground was just dedicated this summer and includes a lovely garden space, and great play equipment with a water spray area and a train theme. 

It could be a very family friendly library branch to pick up a few books, and play on the new playground.  Here's hoping the community gets the full library soon, and that the temporary shelter is just that.
Limited hours for this sub branch, and no Saturdays should be noted.
