Greenville School, collapsed
Title
Greenville School, collapsed
Description
A photograph of Greenville School, which formerly stood on Greenville Road between Forest Grove and Banks, Oregon. The small schoolhouse may have been built in the 1870s. It began collapsing circa 1990, and fully collapsed within about ten years. This is one of a series of photographs that documents the structure's deterioration. In this image, which may date from the mid-to-late 1990s, the roof has fallen down along with the walls, although the right wall is still propped up on logs. The far side of the house appears to still be mostly upright from the angle of the collapsed roof. A man and a woman are in front of the house looking at the debris. The man appears to be salvaging some wood planks.
