If you were by the old library before it started to come down, you might have noticed that the crab apple trees by the front door were gone (cue any George Washington jokes now, please).  The City Forestry Department and the Minn-Dak Woodturners Association took down the trees and treated them so that they could be turned into items that will grace the new library. If you are interested in seeing the photos we’ve included a sample below, but there’s more at MinnDak Woodturners’ Fargo Library Project web site.

In this photo the woodturners are treating the wood with some goop (Anchorseal) so that it doesn’t split.

If you are interested in what they are turning the trees into or in turning some of the wood yourself, make sure to swing by their page.

This morning the exterior demolition of the old library began. We’ve got some pictures that will go up over the course of the day, but to give you some samples:

It’s sad to see it go, but it’s served Fargo well for almost 40 years and we know the new, larger library will meet the city’s growing needs even better than the last.
