Description

Alameda Carnegie Library
2264 Santa Clara Ave.
Alameda, California

Opened in 1903, this Wilcox and Curtis Neoclassical building (also described as Classical Revival) served as a public library until 1998.

Brick columns, stained glass windows, a barrel vault atrium ceiling and arched skylight grace this handsome testament to a time when extra care was put into libraries built for the decades. Prominent San Francisco architects William Wilcox and John Curtis designed the facility; builders were C.H. Foster and Son of Alameda.

"Thank you for follow me and leaving me your comments.
Thank you for visiting my FineArtAmerica Gallery.
I am a Multimedia Independent Artist, Storyteller, Designer and Collector based in the United States.
Since 2003 my focus has primarily been photography as a resource for architectural portraiture and visual storytelling in acrylic/ink.
My work is a relationship between my love of color, light and spirituality. I believe every subject has a story to be told and together with my
client we create a timeless piece of art.
In 2014, I started teaching myself digital fine art applications. My world took a turn as I started expressing my life through photography and digital fine art. It's exciting to know that I am limited only by my imagination and ingenuity.
