Ever since I started planning my America trip one of the things I had always wanted to see was a big American school, I was entranced by the photos coming out of some of the massive high schools dotted around America most notably Cass Tech in Detroit, sadly demolished a few years back.
This school, while not on the same multi-level city block size scale as Cass Tech was definitely big enough, and like many public buildings in America wasn't constructed very well so has suffered areas of catastrophic water damage - the entire Eastern end of the building is sagging, there has already been one collapse and a lot of the rooms are pretty sketchy. The other end, with a fairly modern extension however was perfectly sound.
