One of the "large number of branch libraries in need of maintenance" is the Pacific Branch strategically located at the corner of Fourth Avenue and Pacific. It's a stately Carnegie Library over a century old. It could be renovated to provide a scaled down Visual and Performing Arts Library. It offers an ideal opportunity to have a greater Brooklyn Public Library presence in the BAM Cultural District. Its downstairs auditorium already has a stage and spotlights. It's just waiting for a greenroom and a complete makeover (and a 21st Century Andrew Carnegie?)
