As the demand for community-centered spaces continues to grow, Cabarrus County saw an opportunity to create a facility that would bring people together through learning, wellness and social engagement. This vision led to the creation of the Cabarrus County Library and Active Living Center—a dynamic intergenerational hub designed to serve the evolving needs of Mount Pleasant’s residents.
From the project’s inception, extensive community engagement shaped every design decision, ensuring the 20,921 sq. ft. facility fosters accessibility, inclusivity and ease of navigation. Thoughtful features such as clear wayfinding, strategically placed entrances and a variety of intuitive visual cues create a welcoming and seamless experience for visitors of all ages and abilities.
