Anythink Expansion Complete

More than 4,000 Adams County residents gathered July 10 for the official ribbon-cutting of the Rangeview Library System’s 45,000-square-foot Anythink Wright Farms branch in Thornton, Colorado, the final new building in the district’s makeover. Constructed with recycled materials and run on energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, the Wright Farms branch includes an indoor/outdoor fireplace, children's and teen areas, and a cyber cafe, as a well as a computer lab and meeting rooms. It is part of a nine-acre park built with the help of the Wright Farms Metro District.
