The Scofield School for Girls, taken around a century ago. |
For those who have not heard, the old building is in danger of being torn down to make way for a new housing development for senior citizens. Because the building is privately owned, on private property, the owners can (obviously) do what they want with the old building.
The building itself is in pretty bad shape, according to those who've seen it. Renovation or restoration would probably cost a fortune.
I don't know if the building should be preserved -- or if it even can be preserved.
