Western Lot Project

The Friends of Homer Library (FHL) is partnering with the National Park Service to create a new community space in the 2.24 acre land parcel between the library and Poopdeck Trail. We hope to extend the library's mission beyond the limits of the physical building. We hope to maintain the character of the landscape while making use of its location within the city center to turn it into a cultural, educational, and recreational asset for the community.
