Notes |
Haddington was the eighteenth Carnegie branch library opened by the Free Library of Philadelphia. Plans for the structure were approved by the Free Library Board of Trustees Carnegie Fund Committee on April 4, 1913 and the branch opened to the public on December 3, 1915. The Haddington Branch was designed by the well-known Philadelphia architect Albert Kelsey in association with nationally prominent Philadelphia architect Paul Cret. It is perhaps the most stylistically inventive of the Colonial Revival branch libraries for its use of polychrome terra cotta in the monumental arch of the entrance pavilion. It was located on a corner lot donated by Alex Simpson, Jr.. At the time of opening it served a predominantly Italian-American neighborhood in West Philadelphia and the library is still a prominent architectural and institutional presence in an area of two- and three-story residential structures.
