Fence goes up around old Ballard Library

There has been concern in the MyBallard forum about the condition of the old Ballard Library on 24th Ave NW. bamm314 started the conversation by saying, “Since the Abraxus has moved out the Old Ballard Library has become a bit of an eye sore… Yesterday I counted 7 homeless carts in front of the front doors in clear view of the street with at least one around the side of the parking lot.”

Apparently the owners of the building agree. Most of the graffiti has been removed and a fence is now up surrounding the building. Sammy posted in the forum that the fence went up sometime today, “From what I could tell, all the shopping carts and garbage were removed also. Bravo to whoever owns that building and took care of this!”
