14The Salt Lake City Public Library, Salt Lake City
This library is a striking example of modernist architecture. It was designed by Moshe Safdie, the internationally-acclaimed architect. The interior design is also impressive. There are fireplaces on every one of the four floors, a coffee shop, an art gallery, a trio of glass elevators, a spectacular spiral staircase, and, of course, thousands of books to borrow.
