But Cambridge resi dents fought the idea, saying it would be too much of a traffic burden on a heavily congested area. Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, the late president’s widow, finally de cided on the alternate site at the Bos ton Harbor Campus of the Universi ty of Massachusetts. Architect I.M. Pei designed the $20 million library with an eye to wards attracting visitors. He suc ceeded. “Through January 19th we have had 177,597 visitors,” said Frank Rigg, chief of visitor services at the library. He said the library averages 13,500 visitors per week with most of them coming on weekends. Every president since Herbert Hoover has elected to have his per sonal papers stored in a library built in his honor, a practice which prompted Columbia University his torian Henry Graff to call them “the pyramids of our times.” The papers of earlier presidents are in the Lib rary of Congress. Planning for the Kennedy library was actually started by JFK himself. He envisioned having his post- presidential office in the library building, where he could concen trate on writing his memoirs.
