Window Views ~ UW Suzzallo Library

July 8, 2009 by Ellen

My daughters, niece and I visited the University of Washington campus this week and strolled into the beautiful Suzzallo Library.

The reading room is amazing!

Awesome windows! It looks more like a cathedral than a library.

Very pretty. This looks more like a church than a library.

That’s a LIBRARY??? Gorgeous, and it really does look more like a church. I think I’d be too distracted to study there.

I don’t think I’d get any reading done in there. Amazing!

  Spokane Bill,
  I do not know who the general contractor was. There is more history about the library in an earlier post of mine found here…
