::[[Image:PensacolaPS1.jpg|thumb|right|"Pensacola Public School No. 1"]]OK. It's not the depot, it's part of the structure. See the picture to the right. This (and the picture I linked earlier) looks to be a different structure altogether than what we have at this article. Both are referred to variously as Public or High School No. 1 ... weird. I'm pretty sure this is a later structure, but it is not the PHS from [[Lee Square]] -- I've seen pictures and that's an entirely different building. Unless this structure preceded it on Lee Square.

::::Okay, he wasn't familiar with the old drawing from the ''Historical Quarterly'', but I'm pretty sure, since that rendering matches the Wellge map so well, that it was the only school building that was down on Wright by the Depot (i.e. between 1875-1887, as per the article). The new photo you found shows pretty clearly that the building was on a hill, presumably Gage Hill. It seems reasonable to infer that the building with the towers stood on the hill from 1887 to when it burned down in 1919 (according to Mr. Appleyard). Maybe they appropriated that old Victorian house to serve as the school until the Pensacola High School building was finished in 1921. That building was annexed by nearby PJC and burned in 1968. --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 12:54, 28 April 2008 (CDT) | ::::Okay, he wasn't familiar with the old drawing from the ''Historical Quarterly'', but I'm pretty sure, since that rendering matches the Wellge map so well, that it was the only school building that was down on Wright by the Depot (i.e. between 1875-1887, as per the article).

:::::Nice. Now we just have to figure out what to call their articles or how to combine them etc. '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' ··· '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' 13:15, 28 April 2008 (CDT) | :::::Nice.
