"The money will be earmarked for green renovations, like upgrading heating and air conditioning, replacing windows and adding solar panels. All this should reduce the old library's energy consumption by 50 per cent, and greenhouse gas emissions by more than 1,000 tonnes each year, according to Bellamy.
Inside, the space will become three things: an arts academy, an arts innovation hub, and a cultural learning space for discussion around reconciliation and the country's growth.
The accessibility of the building will also change, with a street-level entrance being added on Victoria Row."
