| 説明 | Built in 1927 and designed by William Lord in the Classical Revival style, this building on Hendersonville Road near Biltmore Village in Asheville, North Carolina was built to house the public school program for the Biltmore Village, Shiloh, and Buena Vista neighborhoods and Biltmore Forest community on the south side of Asheville, North Carolina, and replaced an earlier wood-frame building constructed in 1908 on the same site. The building features a rear wing with a parapet, a Palladian window and balcony above a side entrance on the south side of the building, a front wing with a hipped roof, cupola, two-story portico above a one-story brick base, which housed an auditorium on the inside, and a central courtyard between the front and rear wings of the building. The building served as an elementary school, middle school, and high school until 1962, when it was consolidated with Valley Springs High School to form T. C. Roberson High School, which was built adjacent to Valley Springs School in Skyland, and the building was then converted into the offices of the Buncombe County Board of Education, which remained in the building until 1990, and then the Buncombe County Sheriff’s Department until 1999. The building then sat vacant until about 2012, when it was renovated and rehabilitated with adaptive reuse as an office building, part of the Vanderbilt Park development. |
