St. Anthony's School

 school, 1909_construction, Renaissance Revival (architecture)

5-story Renaissance-revival school building completed in 1909. Designed by Nicholas Serracino, it is clad in beige brick, rusticated on the ground floor. The building was divided into a Catholic boys' school and girls' school, and today houses the Cooke Center Academy. The twin entrances (one for boys, one for girls) still exist on the ground floor, each framed in stone and topped by a triangular pediment with a stone cross. The building is set back behind a wrought-iron fence. The 2nd-5th floors have paired windows in the center and single windows at the end bays, each framed in stone. Between the 2nd and 3rd floors, letters affixed to the facade spell out "SAINT ANTHONY' SCHOOL". There is a projecting modillioned cornice above the 5th floor, with the top floor above faced in stone, with each of the windows recessed below round-arches.
