Biographical / Historical

Old Duluth Central High School is located at Lake Avenue and Second Street. It was built in 1891-92 by Duluth architects Palmer and Hall, but based on Henry H. Richardson’s work described as Romanesque. A massive sandstone structure with a 230 foot tower, the building is now on the National Register of Historic Places. Upon the completion of a new Central High School building in 1971, the building transitioned to use as the administration building for the Duluth Board of Education.
