Eastmark has always been about more than beautiful homes—it’s about creating a connected community where every detail adds value to daily life. That vision is about to reach new heights with the arrival of the Gateway Library, opening in just a few months. Already recognized for excellence with a 2024 Library Interior Design Award from the International Interior Design Association (IIDA) and the American Library Association (ALA), this space isn’t just another library—it’s a stunning, state-of-the-art destination that will inspire Eastmark families for generations.
Imagine taking an evening stroll through Eastmark’s tree-lined paths, then stepping inside a building designed to spark imagination and creativity. Designed by Richard Kennedy Architects and White Baux Studio Interior Design, the Gateway Library is Mesa’s first new full-service library in over 25 years. At 28,000 square feet, it features an open-concept interior with beautifully lined rows of books and materials for all ages, a THINKspot collaborative workspace and makerspace, a multi-purpose room for community gatherings or meetings, a young adult lounge, and a dedicated children’s area for storytime and play. Outside, a landscaped reading patio and plaza offer peaceful spaces with lake views for casual meetups or events.
Located adjacent to Eastmark’s Great Park and lake, the library is seamlessly integrated into the community—just steps from schools, parks, and homes. Kids can walk or bike to the library after class, teens can make it their weekend hangout, and families can enjoy programs or quiet afternoons together—all without leaving the community.
From family-friendly activities and book clubs to creative workshops and collaborative spaces, the Gateway Library was designed to bring the community together. Whether it’s a Saturday morning storytime, an outdoor plaza event, or a quiet corner with a view of the lake, it’s the kind of place that turns a neighborhood into a true community. It’s more than a library—it’s a hub and natural expansion of the Eastmark lifestyle.
Beautiful homes, award-winning schools, miles of walking paths, farm-to-table living, and now an award-winning library—Eastmark is a community built to enrich every stage of life. With the Gateway Library opening soon, Eastmark continues to grow not just in size, but in opportunities. Here, education, recreation, and connection come together to create a truly one-of-a-kind place to call home.
The Gateway Library is well under construction with plans to open later this year, and Eastmark is nearing closeout with only 9 homes remaining. If you’ve dreamed of living in a community where beauty, convenience, and connection meet, now is the perfect time to make your move.
