the mind is a terrible thing to waste...
The remains of the Elmira schoolhouse continue their road to ruin underneath a thick blanket of foliage. The extremely photogenic old schoolhouse was closed in the 1950's and was used for a time as a town hall.Apparently years ago after it became privately owned,an attempt to raze was foiled.But considerable damage was done(the whole backside is open)making any attempt at restoration impractical.So it decays a little more each year,much like the little rural town around it-2 houses directly across from it our abandoned and are going to ruin.It is a real waste of a classic example of early American schools and a much more personal way of educating our young people....
