Description
Photographed, in circa 1953, is an architectural plan, done on June 9, 1951, of Las Palmas Senior High School at Las Palmas and Sixth Street in North Sacramento by the architect Leonard F. Starks. Starks won a major contract, in the 1950s, to design schools for the Grant School District. The schools were built with an eye on cost and streamlined design, both of which frustrated Starks, whose portfolio included more fanciful Beaux Arts style structures like the Elks Building and Alhambra Theater. The high school was not built until 1956.
