The building looks like a shithole because it was created in the 50s for children's use. They designed it to be indestructible.
1956, 31,827sqft, constructed as the Dayton Boys (& Girls) Club featuring a gym and indoor swimming pool. Famously spared from demolition when the U.S. 35 highway interchange was routed around it.
Moved to New Choices Community School, grades 7- 12, in 2000.
Property sold in 2006 for almost half a million
Dayton SMART Elementary School is established in the building, serving grades K–6.
Thanks. I had done half the research and ended up in the opposite resolution.
So yeah, a new-ish free charter school using an existing older building. The older building had the freeway built around it but for some reason hadn’t been demolished
Either the community or the owners pushed to save it, I'm not entirely clear myself.
Also, why in the fuck did they need such a grand exit ramp? Both sides of the road have plenty of easement. the other side of the road is just open. There's space in the bridge for at least 2 more lanes if they change up the tunnel walls. would bring it to 7 lanes.
