OVERVIEW
Nestled in the heart of downtown Yreka’s West Miner Street Historic District, the Yreka Carnegie Library (National Register #92000270) has served as an important feature of the community for over 100 years. Over time, the structural and mechanical components of the building have become worn and in need of repair. The goal of this project is to revitalize this important historical asset to serve as a cornerstone of economic and community prosperity.

Future phases for CMAR to consider during the proposal process could include exterior site improvements, possible reroof of building and either ground or roof mounted solar components.
