[Summit] Library Architects + Signage

[Eric Army]

For the Record, Ann Beha Architects of Boston, MA were the designers of the 
summit addition, and others in the city, I believe.
Were donor recognition signage to be confined to the pedestrian entryway 
(either on the glass wall that contains the entry door, or on the side of 
the glass addition facing the public space in front of the library) I think 
it would be more agreeable. That may also make more sense, as it would be 
directed towards library patrons, rather than Hope Street drivers.
Also, we're a city of wonderfully creative people, it'd be a shame to have a 
donor recognition plaque (of any size) that fit the description John 
related.
