Edgewater Public Library, Municipal library in Edgewater, New Jersey.
The Colonial Revival style library building at 48 Hudson Avenue features symmetrical windows, classical columns, and traditional brick construction elements.
Constructed with a $15,000 grant from the Carnegie Corporation in 1915, this library stands as one of New Jersey's original Carnegie-funded institutions.
The library functions as part of the Bergen County Cooperative Library System, connecting readers across Bergen, Hudson, Passaic, and Essex counties.
The library maintains a collection of over 20,000 volumes and processes more than 50,000 item circulations annually for Edgewater's residents.
An engraved sign above the entrance displays the original designation 'Edgewater Free Library,' preserving the building's early 20th-century identity.
