• Ruston High School - Ruston LA
    Described as "an Art Deco gem" (Leighninger, 2007, p. 78), in which "simple geometric forms predominated" (p. 80), Ruston High School was constructed by the PWA in 1939-1940. The original building included an auditorium wing and the central core of classrooms. A second wing was added to match the auditorium wing in the late 1960s. "One of the best examples of this style in the state", the architectural features were duplicated in the changes (Dailey & Pfister, 2000). The building is still in use as the high school, and is well-maintained.
