Architect and engineer . THE ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER 63. FLOOR PLAN OF LINCOLN HEIGHTS BRANCH LIBRARY Workman Street and Avenue 26 Hibbard & Cody, Architects One of the ten most notable examplesof Architecture in Los Angeles, asselected by the recent Jury. Lincoln Heights Library.—This branch library building was selected because of itsmost successful solution of an unusual quarter circle plan on a corner lot. and becauseof the dignity, large scale and good taste with which it is carried out. Looking into thecurved facade, the building appears larger and more monumental than the ordinarystructure of equal size as usually arranged. On the interior, the floor plan gives one at-tendant, opposite the main entrance, control and a clear view of the whole reading roomand stacks, thus solving the library administration problem most economically and satis-factorily. This building will always be interesting to architectural students because of itsunique scheme and well balanced elements of design in the facades. 64 THE ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER KA
