ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) — The Downtown St. Joseph Public Library building is undergoing renovations but not for the library, a new neighbor is set to move in.
Mary Beth Revels, director of the St. Joseph Public Library, discussed the changes happening in the building.
“(In) the summer of 2024, Northwest Health actually purchased this building, and the intent with them purchasing the building was to put their Downtown clinic in the lower level of the building,” Revels said.
Revels assures that the library is not going anywhere; the two will now share the building.
According to Revels, the library is leasing the space on a 100-year lease that costs them 10 dollars.
News-Press NOW reached out to Northwest Health Services to learn more about the renovations and have not heard back at this time.
