Simpson Street School

This complex consists of a Romanesque Revival-style building that was built in 1892, and two Late Gothic Revival-style buildings that were added during the 1920s. The 1892 building is square in plan, two-and-one-half-story structure with a raised basement. It was built using pressed brick and features three ornate projecting entrances. The addition was built in two phases, in 1926 and 1929. It is a two-story structure that was built using yellow brick with brownstone trim. It was used as a high school until 1957, then as a junior high until 1981, when it was sold by the school district.^[2]
