The Garfield Park Library is one of a number of public buildings in Santa Cruz designed by William Weeks. I believe the sign said it was built in 1914.This is exactly what I think a neighborhood library should be. Handsome and inviting from the outside, cozy on the inside. perfectly in scale with the westside "circles" neighborhood.
Under the tree in the lawn there is a plaque that we had never noticed before saying something like: "Stop here and say a prayer for peace." Donated by the local VFW chapter.(!)
