Additional Property Attributes

The is a historical brick facade building located in a primarily residential area just outside Old Town's center. Historical sources suggest the building was heated with steam since at least 1921. It is likely coal was used for steam production prior to the installation of the fuel oil UST in 1965. Coal was typically delivered via a chute to the basement or in open air piles possibly impacting surface soil at the Site. Additionally, ash from the building fire prior to 1900, demolition debris from the manual training school, and the operation of former and present mills in the local area have the potential to impact surface soils at the Site.

Former Use: The 2.86-acre Site is currently vacant and consists of a 21,198-square foot two-story school building with a finished basement, a shed, a large fuel oil aboveground storage tank (AST) enclosure, a paved parking area, playground, and lawn. An original, smaller school building was reportedly constructed in 1847 and burned sometime between 1894 and 1900. The current building was constructed in 1900. The current building was enlarged with an addition to the north end, and a manual training building was constructed sometime between 1921 and 1948 and was demolished by 1962. The Site has been used as a school since its initial development until July 2014.
