Lake Forest Library Dome Restoration

LakeForestLibrary

A 2024 Historic Preservation Award Winner! Lake Forest Library’s distinctive dome roof element was rehabilitated in 2023, after several years of being covered by a series of temporary tarps. This remedial work was carried out under the planning and supervision of the Wiss Janny Eistner Associates engineering firm. Completion of this project last year allowed for the 2024 restoration of the twelve highly significant Remisoff ancient authors rotunda murals and along with the stability of the notable rotunda overall.
