Buildings, Public Buildings, Education, Seasons, Winter |
Many former residents of the "Hill" were interested in the sale of the Franklin School recently. Arne Koskela of Calumet purchased the structure, unused for many years, from the Primary district school board of Franklin Township District No. 5. For the time he will use it for storage purposes. The building is in good condition. There is not a crack in the broad brick walls, the roof is in good repair and the interior is in admirable shape despite the many years it has been unused.

The old Houghton County juvenile home in Houghton has outlived its usefulness. The building which once housed scores of wayward children throughout its long history is now slated for removal from the court house scene. It is shown here at the side of the steel fencing.[Image of the boarded up building once used as a detention center. See comments section for additional information.] Scanned: August 16, 2007 |

The former Lake high school is a far cry from the present structure. Yet, its halls have seen some of the finest scholastic products of an era still recalled by many in the Torch Lake district. [Image of the building in winter.] Scanned: October 18, 2007 |
