Take our Green Building Tour

To learn more about the Hastings Public Library's green building, take our audio tour. You can pick up the tour at the Information Desk and start in the South lobby at Station One. The tour explains our green building's features at five stations around the library giving participants a better idea of the work that went into building a LEED certified Gold library in Hastings.

The process begins with our building site, a Brownfield, which required a plastic seal between our building and the ground and a set of venting pipes to provide excellent indoor air quality. In the South lobby, you will also see information on our latest green addition, our 30 roof mounted solar panels. The video display shows how much energy the panels are producing each day.

Enjoy the tour!
