Barney & Chapman c. 1897 in Troy,
New York. The building serves as the main branch of the Troy Public Library system. The library building was funded by a donation from Mary E. Hart in honor of her late husband William H. Hart. In 1903 the Trustees changed the name to the Troy Public Library. Click
