Located in Rochester, New York, the Rundel Memorial Library is a historic public library constructed between 1933 and 1936 as the original downtown headquarters of the Rochester Public Library. Designed by the local architectural firm Gordon & Kaelber, the building exemplifies a sophisticated synthesis of Beaux-Arts planning and massing with Art Deco detailing, reflecting the stylistic confidence of the 1930s. Today it functions as part of the Central Library of Rochester and Monroe County, standing alongside the Bausch & Lomb Public Library Building across the street. The building was designated to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
