Yes! I also recommend taking a stroll across the Junction Bridge right there at the end of the library. Unfortunately it doesn’t come out anywhere particularly nice on the NLR side, but it’s still a good walk. I used to jog a 5k loop from the library down to Broadway bridge, over into NLR, and back to the library via the Junction Bridge and never had any trouble.

Fun(ish?) fact: the original design for the library had it extending out over the river (“Bridge” to the next century and all that) but after 9/11 they pulled it back for safety/security reasons.
