The Patterson Park branch is located on the east side of Library Square, and serves the Patterson Park and McElderry Park neighborhoods. Adorned with benches and lush trees, Library Square is a small section of nature in an otherwise very urban area.

The Patterson Park branch opened on April 9, 1910 at Linwood Ave and Fayette Street. The branch was enlarged in 1954. Read more Pratt location history.
