Park View School Gets New Entry Doors
I was pleased to see that the historic Park View School has new entry doors on the original 1916 building. While the doors are not replicas of the original solid oak panel doors, they are in keeping with the design of the original doors. This is one of the benefits of the landmark status of the building, which ensures that something like new doors is in keeping with the spirit of the building’s design. In any event, as you look at the before and after images below, I think you’ll agree that the doors are a vast improvement over what they replaced.

Amazing how much better something can look when you don’t default to the “prison” look.
