This is the second Corinth School built circa 1930.
I've always had a soft spot for the "prairie grandeur" of the schools built around this time. Schools for lots of first generation kids looking forward to a bright future.
That's quite a tilt on the bell tower.
From this angle the flagpole is almost straight up.
The cracked and failing foundation is much taller than it appears in the photos.
Ending on a positive note...North Dakota has "living skies" too!

This is impressive.
ReplyDeleteIt's a "modern" beauty!
DeleteThe building looks fairly well kept, until you see the tilted bell tower. I wonder if, because the foundation is so tall, the basement was used as classrooms too.
ReplyDeleteThe schools from the 1930's all seem to have a tall foundation (three feet or more). Not sure what that was all about.
