Property Features
Charles Blose is listed in the Ashland City Directory of the period, but little else is known about him. The school represents an unusual symmetrical Modernistic style red brick gymnasium building with vault roof and simple cement ornament.
Historical Background and Significance
Architect's perspective drawing exists for this building and is currently held in City Museum collection.
See site files titled "Wildhagen, Henry, Thematic" and "Ashland Middle School" for additional information. While this building was located behind the former Ashland Middle School, it was not included in the National Register nomination.
2017: Built as the gymnasium associated with the Latimer School of Manual Arts; now the Ashland Middle School. The gym, which had been largely free-standing, has since been altered by additions evident along all four elevations.
