Carrie McDermott , Grand Forks Herald; Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library is a miracle on the prairie
Conservation and sustainability are at the forefront of the innovative project’s design and construction
"North Dakota is said to have provided the “romance of his life,” and also where President Theodore Roosevelt’s concern about the depletion of the country’s resources took hold. It’s only fitting that it’s now home to a monumental project centered around conservation and sustainability — the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library (TRPL)...
Designed by Snøhetta, the library’s construction used locally sourced and renewable materials, including mass timber, and mitigates the impact of wind and other climatic features so that it’s accessible in all seasons. Construction began in 2023 and now three years later, a grand opening will be held on July 4 to help celebrate America’s 250th birthday."
