| 説明 | Built in 1924, this Tudor Revival and Gothic Revival-style building was designed by E. C. Landberg and Associates, and served as the high school for Dayton, Kentucky until a new school was built behind the then-new levee in 1983. The building replaced the earlier Second District School which was built in the 1890s and stood on the same site, and burned down in 1923. The building saw the addition of rear wings flanking the central gymnasium/auditorium wing in 1938-1939, built of reinforced concrete with brick veneer on the facades facing Vine Street and Walnut Street, and concrete cladding on the facades facing the adjacent alley.The building features a red brick exterior with a low-slope roof, parapet, stone trim, large window openings with replacement windows, a concrete base, entrances with gothic arched openings, brick corbeling, terra cotta belt coursing, buttresses, a front entrance with a decorative terra cotta surround and large transom, flanked by two bay windows with chamfered corners, a large terra cotta panel at the center of the parapet on the front facade that names the building’s original function in Tudor-style lettering, staircases flanking the central block of classrooms with exterior doorways, a rear gymnasium and auditorium wing with a lower roof and simpler exterior, and stepped portions of the building’s parapet over the principal exterior entrances.The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985, and has since seen adaptive reuse as the Schoolhouse Flats, an apartment building, with the interior of the building being reconfigured into multiple residential units. |
