time can do so much
This building was the school for the community of Allmon for about a quarter century; in 1935 the school was merged with the one in the nearby town of Petersburg. That was followed by years of being vacant, a time as the offices for Barwise Elevator and Fertilizer, and another era of vacancy.
The building is made from tan brick with red-brick accents around the windows, which I guess was the height of rural school design back in 1909.
