Description
The initial building (center) of Harrisburg Township High School in Harrisburg, Illinois was completed in 1904, with large additions built in 1914, 1922, and 1938. In 1934, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and Amelia Earhart visited the school, which exhibits distinctive Victorian and Gothic styles popular during the periods of construction. The still-functioning school is in danger of demolition due to the cost of upkeep. Efforts are being made to get HTHS listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
