301 Pine Ave

From the National Register nomination

Two-story Classical Revival school building of stretcher brick construction with a metal-sheathed hip roof. The southeast-facing front elevation, which is on axis with Eleventh Street, is distinguished by monumental wooden Doric columns in antis. Above the columns are a stuccoed frieze and a pediment with a lunette in the stuccoed tympanum; behind them are a window wall; and between them is an entry with a pedimented surround on replacement classical columns. The rear wing has first-story and basement levels and a boiler flue with corbelling and other decorative projecting brickwork. The front section has modern 8/8/8 windows; the rear wing retains its historic 8/12 windows. A concrete retaining wall extends in front of the school and a parking lot is located to the south side. A concrete-block high school was built on this elevated section of Pine Avenue in 1906; followed by a brick replacement in 1912 and then the present building in 1922 (the earlier facilities have been torn down). Presently Waynesboro Public Schools Administrative Offices.
