School Daze in Iowa
A 112-year-old school is history in Decorah, Iowa.
East Side School went under the wrecking ball in January, four months after voters vetoed a plan to lease the building to a preservation group that wanted to convert the building into a community center. The space will be used for a playground.
The structure has been empty since 1996. The National Trust named it one of America’s Most Endangered Historic Places in 2003.
