Hancock Middle School Gymnasium, Revisited
I was out near Hancock Middle School, so I took some more pictures of the place.While the rest of the building seems to have been torn down and replaced by two new additions, the original, iconic domed gymnasium seems to have garnered enough pride that it was spared.Something I did not realize last time was that it has a wooden understructure.Likewise, this is one of the coolest smokestacks I've ever seen.Here is the old high school, which was apparently on the grounds of the current school.
Your picture of "Hancock Middle School Gymnasium", is actually, and always has been, the High School Gym. Had a swimming pool downstairs.
