Cornwall Public Library

This designated library sits on a former orphanage site that was then acquired by the federal government to house a post office in 1953. In 1997, after the post office had moved to another location and following extensive renovations, the library moved into this building, making it Cornwall's downtown jewel. Guided tours only. Registration required (9:45 a.m. and 2 p.m.).
