Cabarrus County Library & Active Living Center at Afton Ridge is Officially Open!

The doors are open, and the community is already embracing the Cabarrus County Library & Active Living Center at Afton Ridge! This new facility in Kannapolis, NC, brings together library services, wellness amenities, and community gathering areas— all designed to foster learning, connection, and an active lifestyle.


A Space Designed for the Community


From the very beginning, this project was about creating more than just a building—it was about designing a space that truly serves the people of Cabarrus County. The new facility features:

  • A modern library with expanded collections, study spaces, and interactive areas for all ages.

  • Wellness amenities including fitness equipment, group exercise spaces, and outdoor recreation areas.

  • Community gathering spaces for programs, events, and social connection.


The grand opening saw an incredible turnout, with residents exploring the space for the first time—checking out books, testing fitness equipment, and envisioning how they’ll make the most of their new library and active living center.


A Collaborative Effort


This project wouldn’t have been possible without the collaboration of Cabarrus County and many dedicated partners. HBM Architects is proud to have worked alongside Silling Architects to bring this vision to life and ensure the space meets the evolving needs of the community.


Now Open—Come Experience It!


With doors officially open, the Cabarrus County Library & Active Living Center at Afton Ridge is already becoming a hub for learning and activity. Whether you’re looking for a new book, a place to gather, or a way to stay active, this facility has something for everyone.
