This 9-1/2" x 6-1/2" black and white photograph shows a street view of Capitol School, a two-story brick building. The building has fire escapes and many windows. There are bushes and trees surrounding the school. The third capitol building can be seen in the background.
Capitol School was located at 821 S. 16th Street in Lincoln, Nebraska, from 1886 to 1963. It was torn down in 1963 and replaced with McPhee School. The first part of the building was built in 1886 by contractors Grace and Kelley for a price of $18,477. A new wing of four rooms was built in 1900, at a cost of $13,407.35, by the contractors Cambell Brothers.
