Baltimore architects Pavlina Ilieva and Kuo Pao Lian have had their eye on Library No. 19 for more than a decade. The former Enoch Pratt Free Library branch sits on a quiet, residential block of Fells Point, near to where they live and work. After years of watching the building fall into vacancy and disrepair, Ilieva and Lian’s architecture design firm, PI.KL Studio, has been selected by Baltimore’s Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) to revive the property at 606-610 S. Ann St. in Fells Point.
