N HISTO

RY

Highlights of the history of Central Elementary School include :

Ca 1884 Original School :

The original school building was

constructed on or just before 1884 on the

same site as the current structure.

The high school was located just to the

north and is visible at the right hand side of

the photo at right.

w

ww

.helenahistory.org

1914-15 Original Building :

George Carsley, Architect and Ralph Adams, Engineer

In 1914-1915, a new, larger structure w

as built just west of

the original school, presumably to m

inimize disruption

and/or relocation of the students during construction. The

new elem

entary school was built to coordinate w

ith the

adjacent high school, gymnasium

, and auditorium buildings.

Together these four structures were to serve as a central

education area for the comm

unity.

The 1914 building is constructed as a load-bearing masonry

wall w

ith concrete floor structures. It is a three-story

building and primarily resem

bles a Type III-B structure, as

the entire structure is resistant to fire except for the roof

framing, w

hich is wood over the top of a concrete deck. The

basement is daylit to the w

est, south, and north, and the

main corridor w

as established to run North-South betw

een

the original school and the 1914 building.

1921 Addition George H Carsley, Architect

Follow

ing completion of the three-story 1914 structure, the

original school was presum

ably taken down to allow

room for the

remainder of the elem

entary school to be constructed. Construction draw

ings date from 1921 and detail the east half of

what w

e now know

as Central Elementary School.

Similar to the first construction period, the construction m

ost closely resem

bles Type III-B construction. The roof is wood

framing over concrete deck. Further interior stairs w

ere developed as part of this addition, and the stair access points to the north and south w

ere redeveloped to be more cohesive as

part of this addition. Exterior detailing is similar to the original

building, but there are areas where detailing w

as minim

ized and construction m

aterials changed, presumably to m

inimize cost.

1935 Repair and Reinforcement

Hugenin and Dekay, Architects Som

etime after the substantial earthquake in 1935, Hugenin and DeKay Architects w

ere comm

issioned to perform

seismic stabilization for the building. Brick shear w

alls were added to the interior portions of the

building in four areas on each floor, attempting to transfer the seism

ic load from the roof to the ground

plane. At som

e point following the 1935 seism

ic upgrades, a steel column support system

was installed in six of the

classrooms. It is presum

ed that these columns w

ere installed to help with the sag of concrete slabs in the

classrooms.

1993 Heating System Replacem

ent In 1993, the Heating System

was replaced, rem

oving the original steam heat system

and replacing it with a

hot-water system

, complete w

ith new boilers located in the penthouse above the top floor.

Historical Significance Contrary to popularly-held belief, neither Central Elem

entary School nor the 7th Avenue Gym

nasium are on

the National Historic Register for Historic Places. It is understood that in 1972, vast areas of the

neighborhood were docum

ented for inclusion on the National Historic Register, but that the Central School

building was not yet of enough age to qualify for inclusion.

However, due to the current age of the building and depending on funding sources, the State Historic

Preservation Office m

ay need to be consulted and their recomm

endations followed to successfully finalize

the construction scope.
