"The 1927 three-story Late Gothic Revival style brick building was designed by Denver architect William N. Bowman, in conjunction with Greeley architect Sidney G. Frazier.

The exterior remains virtually as constructed, and the building remains in use as part of the Greeley Central High School complex." (from (visit link) )

"The new Greeley High School was completed during the summer of 1927, opening for classes
that September with a student enrollment of 600 and a capacity of 1100. This represented a
102-student increase from the number enrolled at the earlier high school the previous year. By
the early 1950s, the Greeley High School building was reaching its capacity and space was
required for extra classrooms. To accommodate this need, the district erected the Agricultural
Building in 1953 to the northwest to house vocational shop classes that included woodworking,
metalworking, and equipment repair. In 1958, the Gymnasium Building was erected to the
southwest to house a gym, cafeteria and instrumental and vocal classrooms. With these
structures complete, the interior of the Greeley High School building was remodeled in 1958." (from (visit link) )
