On Saturday, September 9, the St. Paul Public Library celebrates the grand
opening of its Rondo Community Outreach Library.

See: http://www.sppl.org/rondo

The unique facility, which features three floors of mixed-income housing,
will serve an ethnically diverse population, including many recent
immigrants and low-income families.

The name Rondo memorializes St. Paul's Rondo Avenue and its legendary
African-American neighborhood, displaced and destroyed by the construction
of Interstate 94 in the 1960s.
