“What was once just a dream is now reality thanks to the opening of Louisville Public Library’s new Southwest Regional Library on Dixie Highway.

‘This library’s awesome,’ Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer said.

Despite Sunday’s chilly temperatures, hundreds attended the grand opening. The architecture is said to rival others across the country.
