Gail Borden is one of Elgin's gems. It often hosts special events, and has an upstairs reading room with a giant fireplace, big comfy chairs, and a stunning view of the river. Also has a great cafe!
Gorgeous library has amazing book selection, quiet rooms, and donut shop. The view of the river is amazing from the second floor.
