Library Green Conservancy

Library Green Conservancy Would you like a green public park, meeting place and venue for outdoor activity at the heart of Ann Arbor?

We are a group of Ann Arbor residents who believe that the social and cultural value of a community owned public space in downtown Ann Arbor far exceeds any financial value such a space might have. We seek to encourage both public and private agencies and individuals to work together towards creating a green space on the last remaining site where it could be accomplished, the roof of the Library P

arking structure. Such a space will help to make Ann Arbor even more a special city by providing a common location where people can meet for social, civic, and recreational purposes. We wish to incorporate a broad range of public input in the creation of such a facility and intend that the result will be a significant community asset, ecologically, socially, and financially.
