Pflugerville breaks ground on long-awaited library expansion

"The community has been waiting on [the library expansion] for too long," City Manager Brandon Wade said. "That's a pretty big deal from a quality-of-life standpoint."

Along with the library expansion, the city unveiled a time capsule buried at the library and sealed until 2065, Pflugerville's centennial. The time capsule includes:

• Pflugerville, A Heritage to Remember and Another Time, Another Place by the Friends of the Library
• Long-time Pflugerville Library Director JoAnne Thornton's A Dream Come True
• The book The Pfluger Family
• The 2011 Friends of the Library commemorative Christmas ornament
• The 2012 Pflugerville Reads book, The Wizard of Oz, along with its read-it forward label
• Newspapers from the week of January 12
• Some of the original Pflugerville Community Library cards.
