Designed by the famous architect and designer Warren Platner, Suffield’s Kent Memorial Library is at risk for demolition.
This does not have to be the case however, there are alternative solutions to keep the library intact that can satisfy all parties involved.
"Warren Platner is an architect of enormous distinction. This building is a jewel box and a monument from our recent past. It's significance has not yet been fully studied, nor properly understood. It would be a shame to lose this building, especially so soon after the death of this great Connecticut Architect. It would be wonderful if as a society, we could celebrate our home grown achievements, however quirky they may be perceived as being. By demolishing this building, we are denying our own history and individual expression."
