Background Information • The original Hawthorne School Building was designed by Architect Ben H. Byrnes in the Tudor Revival style. The school structure is distinguished by its reddish face brick, stone trim and castellated roofline. Brick stringcourses and ribbon windows encircle the original building. One-story brick additions were made to the structure in 1916, 1930, 1961 and 1993. The expanded classroom and office areas, as well as the multi-purpose room attached to the south and southeast of the original building. A stone Tudor arch that covered the main entrance to the building on the east was in-filled with masonry during this time and the original wood windows were replaced with aluminum windows having dark bronze frames. Detached modular classroom structures were added to the northern portion of the site in 1993 and 1996, but were later removed. • The City of Salina designated the original Hawthorne School building as part of a Heritage Conservation District in 1997. However, the property is not listed on the State or National Register of Historic Places. The Conservation District designation means the school is one of 215 non-contiguous properties that were identified as having historical and/or architectural significance to the city.
