Designs for former president George W. Bush’s library and policy institute were unveiled in Dallas, highlighting a brick-and-limestone affair to be capped by a lantern-shaped roof that will glow at night.
The complex, which will include the 43rd president’s archives and a museum, will be built along the eastern edge of Southern Methodist University, the alma mater of former first lady Laura Bush. She will appear with architect Robert A.M. Stern at a Dallas news conference today to discuss the designs.
