# Millicent library Fairhaven MA 

Todays post is in a way a follow on from yesterdays post where i shared a Mono shot of the Milicent LIbrary in Fairhaven along with some other Mono shots, plus in a previous Wednesday walk post i shared some shots of the cool buildings in this area of Fairhaven and said I would do more post but had not got around to it till now 

It reminded me I had not shared a post just on the LIbrary and so here it is

The Millicent library which was   donated to the town by the family of Millicent Gifford Rogers, the youngest daughter of Abbie Gifford and wealthy industrialist Henry Huttleston Rogers. Young Millicent had died of heart failure in 1890 when she was barely seventeen years old. The library was dedicated on January 30, 1893. It was designed by Charles Brigham in the Richardsonian Romanesque style, and it really has style the libraries back in my home town where I grew up were sur enot as stylish as this, I would imagine its pretty impressive inside as well but I havent gone in yet.

ITs sad the story of MIllicent passign so young, but what a tribute to her with this beautiful building

the intricate work and cool details make this library really stand out, although i hope in winter they put snow melt on those stairs they could be real slippery and dangerous if one is not careful

I think the whole building is cool but this portion is probably my favorite part of it
