This building resides in Northwest Oklahoma City and is a very interesting sight to see. Opening in 2012, the Patience S. Latting was the first metropolitan library to open in OKC in over 30 years, and the architect behind it made sure to make it stick out. The building walls are almost all glass, with small metal beams to support the frame, and more metal beams coming off of the roof for an outer layer of support. The structures on the top of the library are meant to resemble oil derricks, an iconic symbol of the state. I have spent many hours inside this building studying, and it truly is a great environment. Many people have spoken about ‘healthy buildings’ in their presentations, and this is one of them. The library was even built with strong sustainability features that allowed it to become the first LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certified library in the state. This library is right around the corner from my house and from the moment it was built, the distinct design of it has always stood out to me.
