NOTES
Additional Information:2011- "The 1-story John Paull I Academy was constructed c. 1960. The building is L-shaped in plan with a concrete foundation, brick walls, and a flat roof. The front elevation faces east and is asymmetrical in plan. The fagade of the school is dominated by a continuous bank of windows that reach from just below the roofline to a few feet above the ground. The northern end of the front elevation contains a recessed entry. The short leg of the "L" is comprised of a large brick building mass that houses the school's gymnasium."
