—i r Future Library Alternative Sites fn P ^ lot North 800 tt C owrtov «r jphM Library Continued from Page 1 115,000 square feet of space,” Lutes, said. The problem with expanding the present library is that the asbestos ceilings must be removed and this requires the building to be sealed off, Lutes said. The removal would lie ex pensive and time consuming, he added. In addition to the existing site at 100 W. 13th Ave. and the Eighth Avenue and Willamette Street site, the other two sites under consideration are located at a city-owned parking lot on Broadway Avenue between Charnelton and Lincoln streets and on Olive Street between 10th and 11th avenues RobertsonKherwood ranked the four sites on the basis of criteria such as accessibility, handicapped accessibility, parking availability, traffic im pact, size and urbanity. It developed a point system from 1 to KM) on the basis of these criteria, Lutes said. "Cost was not included in these criteria," assistant city librarian Carol Hildebrand said Wednesday. The reason for this was the committee wanted to determine the most desirable site on the basis of the aforementioned criteria as a preliminary step to the final site selection. Hildebrand said. The Broadway and Charnelton Street site received the number one ranking, with 7B out of 100 points; the Eighth Avenue and Willamette Street site ranked second with 71.25 points; the site on Olive Street between 10th and 11th avenues was third with 70 points; and the current site finished last with titi.75 paints. Of the four sites, the Eighth Avenue and Willamette Street site is the least expensive because it would incorporate the existing Parcade parking garage. The other sites would require the construction of park mg garages. Hildebrand said. The Kightli Avenue and Willamette Street site would cost an estimated $18.8 million. The estimated cost to expand the present library is $21.7 million The site on Broadway between Charnelton and Lin coln streets is estimated at $24 5 million, and the site between on Olfoe Street between 10th and Uth avenues has an estimated price tag of $24.8 million. "The public does not believe that (estimated costs) should be considered a final number.” Hildebrand said. "A display of information about the project will be available until the meeting on Aug. 20.” Hildebrand said. The public can pick up feedback forms if unable to attend, feed back forms from the July 28 ses sion are aiso available from the library. Hildebrand said.

Becky Cohen, the Amazon Community Tenants officer, has bean working to get things set up from her end. She believes a program like this one is definitely needed, she said. "We have some problems with children being around without much supervision.” she said. She hopes the workshops will stimulate the children in this age bracket and keep them from doing what they shouldn’t be doing, she added. Cohen is hopeful (he program is a success, but is not overly optimistic. “I'm not sure if that's (the in itial program on nutrition) go ing to draw kids." she said "But someone will lie there, and if it's good, word will spread among the kids." "We do need to deal with children of students, nnd not just pro-schoolers who need child care." she added. Hine Continued from Page 1 photographs." Stelfox said. "He would have a group stop when they were coming off a boat and then photograph them Hut us far us deliberately putting a baby in a mother's arm. he didn't do that.” Hine also is known for his child labor photographs Dur ing the late 1900s and early 1910s. he traveled throughout the Northeast, Southeast and mid-Atlantic states, photographing children work ing in the putrid conditions of sweatshops, factories and mines. “The child labor photographs really did make an impact and. in fact, were instrumental in getting several laws enacted to protect children in factories. They were widely published in newspapers at that time,’’ Stelfox said. Mine later received assignments from the American Ked Cross to photograph living conditions of French and Belgian civilians during World War I and rural communities of Arkansas and Kentucky during the early years of the Great Depression. He also photographed the construction of the Empire State Building in 1930.
