Description
“The Harrah school gym is unique because it is constructed of poured concrete. This is a two-story gym building with a barrel roof. The building is painted white and the windows have been covered with metal siding painted blue. Only a couple of window units have a small window remaining.
“The building was constructed in 1939-1940 with a [Works Progress Administration] WPA appropriation of $84,078. A brick extension has been added to the gym on both the east and west sides. The building appears to still be in use.”
