Looking it up, apparently the new version was itself demolished in 2015 to make room for commercial spaces, which makes it even more sad.

I agree although I understand that there might be a place for the style. The style itself is inherently alienating and rejecting of life so as a building style it is in my opinion best suited for places that want to keep people away or at least want to signal that it is not a place to live. Using it for a library then is an odd choice.
