The main building of the new plant, which will occupy the site of the present high school, will be a three-story building of class “B” construction. All stairs through- out the building are to be fireproof. The corridors and walls of the ground floor and the corridors of the main floor are to be of reinforced concrete and inclose all parts connected with the heating plant. All hoods and chemical closets are fireproofed, and every precaution has been taken to make the building as highly fire resisting as possible. Every attention has been given to easy and unobstructed exits and escapes. From the ground floor there are five exits in four directions; from the main floor, five exits in two directions; and from the second floor, two exits to the front and two to the rear. The ground floor is occupied by the main floor of the auditorium and gymnasium, which, when seated to capacity, will accommodate six hundred people. The stage is designed to handle all entertainments and exercises offered by the school. The general locker rooms for students’ wraps, hats, books, etc., together with the gymnasium lockers, showers and shower rooms, general toilets, and fan room are located on the ground floor.

The assembly or study hall, with a seating capacity of two hundred, occupies the central part of the third floor and is directly and conveniently connected with the general recitation rooms. The following class rooms are provided on this floor: English, History, Modern Language, Latin, two Mathematics, and three Commercial. The rear of the lot will be graded and finished after the fashion of an open-air theatre, with a permanent seating capacity of seven hundred and space to accommodate, in case of public gatherings, an audience of 2000 or more. Circling the pit there will be a running track, which will measure ten laps to the mile. The space inside of the track will be given to four courts which will be available for tennis, basket-ball, baseball and field sports. The Manual Training and Domestic Science building, a two-story structure, will stand on the northwest corner of the Washington School lot. The Manual Training Department will occupy the main floor of the building, and in place of the cramped conditions now endured the boys will have a large bench room, a lathe and mill room, a drafting room, a varnishing room, and a stock room. The second floor will be devoted to the Department of Domestic Science. A large kitchen, a sewing and fitting room, and a Model Flat' will make possible the teaching of every phase of household arts.
