The SoCal city of Beaumont has begun a $15 mil renovation and expansion of the Beaumont Carnegie Library. Originally built in 1914, the historic library will be modernized to meet seismic, accessibility, and safety standards while incorporating a new 9.1k sf addition that will enhance services and resources for the growing Beaumont community.
The general contractor for the project is C.W. Driver Companies. TSK Architects is handling the design/architecture responsibilities.
Located at 125 East 8th St in Beaumont, the project will be completed in two phases to ensure the library remains accessible during construction. Phase one will focus on site preparation, including the demolition of adjacent structures, the construction of the new addition, and the development of a south parking lot. Phase two will encompass a full renovation of the original library, integration with the expansion, and the completion of an east parking lot. When completed in 2026, the revitalized 20.7k sf facility will provide modernized reading spaces, upgraded technology, and expanded programming areas.
“The Beaumont Carnegie Library has been a pillar of this community for over a century, and we are honored to help preserve its history while expanding its impact,” said Tom Jones, project executive C.W. Driver Companies. “This project is a testament to the city’s dedication to education and community engagement, and we’re excited to bring this vision to life.”
