First a bit of history courtesy of the Ridgewood Library:
Gertrude Pease Anderson, one of the founders of the first volunteer library in Ridgewood, left money in her will to build a library in memory of her father George L. Pease. The library was opened in 1923 and was in use by the library through 1998. The police occupied the building in 1999 when Hurricane Floyd flooded their quarters. They moved to the new Village Hall in 2005.
Today the landmark library building is for rent:
Landmark Building in the Heart of the Village, totally renovated, elegant office space offering wood-burning fireplace, Original Chestnut Woodwork, Built in book cases, High Ceilings and Pallandian Windows overlooking Ridgewood. 2 reserved parking spaces, new high efficiency HVAC individually metered.
The only taker to date has been the company which is renovating the train station.
