763. The Central University Library, UC San Diego


Dear Louis,

The iconic Brutalist Geisel Library (originally 
Central Library) located on the main campus of 
the University of California, San Diego, was 
rededicated in 1995 in honor of children's author 
Theodor Seuss Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss). The original 
idea for this library conceived by architect William Pereira was a treelike building including a spherical
books repository resting at the top of a massive 
structural trunk.
In one of the most popular children's books written 
and illustrated by P.D. Eastman and named 
Go, Dog. Go! all kind of different dogs run to a big 
dog party held on top of a tree.

Happy birthday Louis!
