Grammar School: View of facade showing octagonal stair tower
Date
Circa 1910
Location
Architecture Library, Hesburgh Libraries
The old Grammar School (Gymnasium) is assigned to Weidmann on stylistic grounds: horizontal bands of moulding separate the three floors, the windows are arranged in pairs, as at the town hall, and an obliquely fenestrated octagonal stair tower crowned by a bulbous cupola is introduced in front of the façade.
