| Stone from the fallen towers was used to repair the entryway steps and patch stonework above. The repairs were short-lived, as the old building was demolished in 1936, and a modern school was built on the site. |

The open
house for this building was held Nov. 13, 1936 -- a little
over a year after the old school was demolished. It has seen
several additions and renovations over the years. It's notable
in this view that more than half of the original tall windows
have been covered over and/or removed.
