About this space

The Library is a characterful and well-considered setting designed for conversation and focused gatherings. Framed by classic architectural details and a warm fireside feel, the space has a quiet, unhurried quality that works well for smaller, more personal occasions.

Well suited for fireside chats, book signings, board meetings, or private dining, the Library offers a comfortable and flexible environment that feels distinct from a standard meeting or event room.
