School No. 26, Milton Street School

School No. 26, Milton Street School

Built in 1888 at 101 Milton Street, this school was designed by Louise Bethune's architectural firm, Bethune & Bethune.

It was described by Buffalo Express newspaper in 1889 as having 121 rooms, Queenstown-stone trimmings, and “finished in soapstone of light and attractive colors. There are transoms over the outside windows, and the light and ventilation are declared to be perfect.”

A new school was built on the same block in 1926, and this building was demolished.
