<div dir="ltr"><div>One of the libraries (non-Carnegie) I work with has just finished (as in the library is closing for a couple of weeks and starting Wednesday to move from their temporary location back into the renovated building) a ~6 month major building renovation project. I had the pleasure of numerous direct contacts with the architect, Andrew Circle, throughout the project. If I were to ever implausibly find myself in charge of a library and needing an architect, he would be high on my call list. My own interactions with him were stellar. Also, I've also been told (unsolicited) by the library director on numerous occasions how pleased she is with Mr. Circle (AND with Isaac Rindler, Project Manager for Westerheide Construction Company, the GC).</div><div><br></div><div>I have absolutely no prior or ongoing relationship of any sort with either. I'm mostly just responding because of my own professional interactions with Mr. Circle (and Mr. Rindler) and because I know that the library director has had a very positive experience, but is insanely busy right now and quite likely won't have the time to respond on her own.</div><div><br></div><div>Architect:</div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><a href="mailto:circleas@gmail.com" target="_blank">circleas@gmail.com</a></div><div>Andrew Circle</div><div>Andrew Circle Architect LLC</div><div>937.623.0251</div><div><a href="http://www.andrewcircle.com" target="_blank">www.andrewcircle.com</a></div></blockquote><br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>GC (FWIW):</div></div></div></div><blockquote style="margin:0 0 0 40px;border:none;padding:0px"><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div>Isaac Rindler | Project Manager</div></div></div></div><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div>Westerheide Construction Company</div></div></div></div><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div>1120 Milligan Ct. - Sidney, OH 45365</div></div></div></div><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div>Office - 937-492-7432</div></div></div></div><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div>Cell - 419-852-1816</div></div></div></div><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div><a href="http://www.westerheidecc.com">www.westerheidecc.com</a> </div></div></div></div><div><div data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div><div><a href="mailto:isaac@westerheidecc.com">isaac@westerheidecc.com</a></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><div dir="ltr" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><br></div><div>I haven't stated the library's or director's name.

Most likely, I'm guessing Mr. Circle would also probably disclose the library as part of his list of credentials, if asked for them.
