KC Library garage has giant book facade
The photo shows the unusual facade of the parking garage at the Kansas City, Missouri, Public Library.
The facade features popular books such as "Huckleberry Finn," " The Lord of the Rings" and "Romeo and Juliet."
The spine of each book prominently displays a title in a 9-by-25-foot rectangle on the exterior wall.
The garage is the highlight of the Kansas City's library district and sits across from the Central Library.
The complex was completed in 2004 at a cost nearly $50 million.
