"Kansas City Library, Downtown Rivermarket. Like a location straight out of the 20s - the 1906 historic bank converted to library is a seriously incredible space. The highly maintained historic building contains huge marble columns and beautiful crystal chandeliers that make you feel like you should be wearing a suit and tie. They created really unique spaces throughout, including using the huge old bank vault as a movie theatre, and many quiet corners and tables for studying with vintage modern book decor."
