Summary

Park School was built in 1918 by the Omaha Public School District as an eighteen-room elementary school facility. The flat-roofed masonry building, which is U-shaped in plan, includes two floors over a raised basement. The building incorporates features of the Collegiate Gothic style. The building is located in one of the city's older residential districts, less than one mile from the central business district. Because the building has been subject to few alterations and little deterioration or removal of historic fabric has occurred, Park School retains a high degree of historic and architectural integrity.
