I had taken alot of pictures of Coleman Old High School back in 1999 but i lost or misplaced most of them due to i moved from home after i finish High School , so please enjoy them plus some of them are not the best but it is there !

Little History of this Building This school was build in i think around late 1920's after the 1st high school caught on fire in early 1920's build in 18?? more info are coming about that school in a few days , so the new school from late 1920's-1974's the school was great then some student started a fire in the basement think? its was a small fire damage, in 70's the town/ school board want to build a newer building so in 1975 the new high school was open plus it was just out side of the town, 76 the school board and the town don't know what to do with the old school so they boarder it up 76-99 ,plus around that time peoples get then their and do stuffs inside , in 97 me and my friends just hangout in their just to look around it wasn't so bad plus we were on the roof the the gym seen some large holes , then 98 the town wants to demolished it most peoples didn't like the plan for it some peoples said they should turn it into a community center or a place for students to hangout , in 99 the town wants to build a new city hall, library and a new police station . the town got screwed after the school was demolished they barely have money just to build the small library, so that's it for now for the info about the school . more pic's are coming but don't know when that will be .

Nice building. Shame it's gone.

Now you can tear a building down, but you can't erase a memory
These houses may look all run down, but they have a value you can't see

lol, demolishing stuff is apparently expensive... seems easier to let buildings just fall apart on their own haha. Very cool building, nice informative history as well.
