Description
Written on verso: "Mildred Winters; Central Building; San Jose State Normal; 1880-1906."
"In 1881, the second Normal School was completed. The building was designed by local architect Levi Goodrich. To avoid a fire, it was built with brick and stone and incorporated a 5,000 gallon water tank on the third floor. It survived the 1906 earthquake, but there was serious structural damage and the building was demolished in 1908." from "Images of America, San Jose's Historic Downtown." Written by Lauren Miranda Gilbert and Bob Johnson.
