Description
The Works Progress Administration (WPA) built the Lincoln School in Grand Junction CO. The two-story, brick building replaced a structurally-unsound school. The new Lincoln School building included fire safety features such as fire-resistsant, concrete construction corridors and stairways. The WPA crews also manufactured the brick used in the masonry walls of the school.
The exact location and condition of the school are unknown to the Living New Deal.
