Marbella mayor Ángeles Muñoz has stressed that the new San Pedro Alcántara library, now under construction in the Jorge Lorenzo Tejada park in the El Arquillo area, will be a modern, functional space that meets local needs and strengthens cultural and educational services.
Scheduled for completion at the end of next year, the 1,300-square-metre facility will include a 700-square-metre study area, a reading room, book storage and an auditorium, as well as a rooftop area for cultural and educational activities. The circular, two-storey design adapts to the natural slope of the land and makes full use of natural light.
With a 3.8-million-euro budget co-funded by EU programmes, the project forms part of a wider plan to revitalise San Pedro, including the renovation of nearby Calle Coclé.
