Description
Bracketted by fan palms is the entrance to Sacramento High School in this circa 1910 postcard. Located on L Street, between Eighteenth and Nineteenth streets, one architect involved with the school's 1908 construction referred to the finished product as "a dandy," although the city's population surge made the building obsolete as a high school, prompting the construction of another building in 1924. The original school would serve ably as Junior High and night school for decades to come.
