Phillis Wheatley Elementary School was just issued an RFP for its demolition. While I do like some Modernist buildings, I'm still on the fence about this one. What do y'all think about it?
I just hope that if they tear this building down it doesn't make it harder for any developer in the future to tear off the ugly Modernist facade of the Sanlin Building on Canal Street, exposing the Greek Revival facade underneath.
Read more about it here, or sign the petition to stop its demolition if you'd like:

Here's a picture of the Sanlin too while I'm mentioning it:
