Downtown's new Central Library is - in a word - amazing!! The atrium is dramatic and grand and the collections and reading areas are so nice. I spent most of my time in The Learning Curve with my son and he quietly spent more than two hours playing, reading and exploring. I can't wait to go back by myself and check out the rest of the place. The best part - aside from garage parking and any snacks you want at the on-site cafe - it's FREE!!!
