59 Scotland Road

59 Scotland Road is a 1 story, 3 bay, rectangular plan, Romanesque Revival, brick and stone, former library building. The brick structure is dominated by a hipped roof, polygonal dormer and a full arched entryway. Multiple window groupings flank the entrance. Built at the turn of the century, the library lot was a gift from South Orange Village Trustee Eugene V. Connett, whose estate was across the street. His generous donation of land served as an incentive for other Village citizens to contribute money for the construction of the building. When the new Village library was constructed in the 1970s, the old building was leased to an organization providing reader service for the blind.
