Summary[edit]

Description

Carl Schurz High School in Chicago (1910). It is named after German revolutionary and US Senator Carl Schurz. It is the magnum opus of Dwight H. Perkins. Perkins was the Chief Architect for the Chicago Board of Education from 1905 to 1910. The building blends the Prairie School with the Chicago School. It was completed in 1910 and had an initial enrollment of 1,031. By 1912, enrollment jumped to 1,533, requiring a major addition. Arthur F. Hussander, Perkins' successor, designed the south wing along Addison Street in 1915. A second addition was completed in 1924 along Waveland Avenue by John Christensen.

This is an image of a place or building that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in the United States of America. Its reference number is 11000031.
