Summary

Description The Parkway Central Library at 1901 Vine Street between N. 19th and N. 20th Street in the Logan Circle area of Philadelphia, is the main library of the Free Library of Philadelphia. It was built in 1917-27 from a 1908 design by Horace Trumbauer in the Neoclassical style, probably influenced by recent trips to France by the African American architect Julian Abele, chief designer of Trumbauer's office.
