Poynette Redevelopment Project Includes Space for New Library


Downtown redevelopment plan drafted. (Poynette Press, 9/27/2011)

Excerpt: The initial draft of the plan identified a concept building that would create an 8,400-square-foot space on the first floor for the library and a coffee shop and a 7,200-square-foot space on the second floor to house approximately three or four commercial office tenants.

Other improvements would be 25 off-street parking spaces and a "pocket park/walkway" for access to parking and outdoor café seating. The plan would also preserve the Poynette Area Historical Society building and separate commercial and residential uses on the same block
.

But as Poynette Administrator Daniel Guild says, "We have a ways to go".
