(inherited from collection) - Description:
- This granite building now houses the Winthrop Manor senior assisted living facility. When it opened in 1913 however, it was the John B. Cary School. With the vagaries and abominations of 1950s segregation it was renamed West End School until it closed in 1976. It was next the Adult Accelerated Learning Center and the Franklin Military School until its 2012 conversion to its present use. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992. Contrary to appearances, this is not an hdr image. Nor did I saturate the colors...
