P.S. 26

P.S. 26Location: 101 West Burnside Avenue (1930 Andrews Avenue, 1900 Andrews Avenue South, 101 West 178 Street), Block: 3216, Lot: 2.

Status: Never landmarked or heard. New addition was added in late 80s.

Description from the Bronx SurveyAn attractive Collegiate Gothic structure by the borough’s most prolific school architect. Unfortunately, only half of the original building remains, the entire wing west of the entry tower having been destroyed by fire in 1972 (Plans are currently underway for the rebuilding of this section). Despite its rather truncated appearance, this school remains a handsome addition to the neighborhood. The two-story oriel windows are especially fine.
