This impressive two-story Beau Arts style structure was completed in 1904 using one of the thirty-two financial grants awarded by the Carnegie Corporation of New York. Grants were received across the State of Texas from 1898 until 1915. Andrew Carnegie funded the construction of 2509 public libraries between 1883 and 1929, with over $350 Million dollars of his personal fortune spent across Europe and the United States. This outlay was done via a series of pre-qualifying grants.
