The former Washington Polytec Academy is where Washington Elementary School with a history that spanned from 1868 until 1935 once stood. Originally named Washington Number One, the school was renamed to honor George Washington crossing of the Allegheny River with Christopher Gist. A marker on the school notes the event. A structure was constructed on the site in 1908 and in 1936 was expanded to form the Washington Trade School. The Charles W. Bier designed structure opened on September 1, 1937.[4] From 1937 until the early 21st century it served as a public vocational school[5] capable of accommodating 900 students and included a testing laboratory, bricklaying shop, print shop, library, two drafting rooms, blue print shop, mimeograph room, and an auditorium with a seating capacity of 384. On February 2, 1972 Julie Nixon Eisenhower visited the school during her fathers re-election campaign to discuss busing.[6] In May 1972, an international contingent of students visited the center from Brazil, Thailand, South Korea, Venezuela, Chile, Peru, Afghanistan, and Libya.[7] The school building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[2] The building was used as a school until 2006; it has since been sold with plans to be converted to a hotel.[8] References1. ^http://images.library.pitt.edu/cgi-bin/i/image/image-idx?view=entry;cc=hpichswp;entryid=x-msp117.b017.f10.i04 {{Portal|Pittsburgh}}2. ^1 {{NRISref|2009a}} 3. ^{{cite book | url= http://www.phlf.org/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/Historic-Plaques-2010b.pdf | title=Historic Landmark Plaques 1968-2009 | publisher=Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation | location=Pittsburgh, PA | page= | year=2010 | accessdate=2011-07-28}} 4. ^http://images.library.pitt.edu/cgi-bin/i/image/image-idx?view=entry;cc=hpichswp;entryid=x-msp117.b017.f10.i04 5. ^http://www.lhs15201.org/articles_b.asp?ID=83 6. ^https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=djft3U1LymYC&dat=19720202&printsec=frontpage&hl=en 7. ^http://images.library.pitt.edu/cgi-bin/i/image/image-idx?view=entry;cc=hpichswp;entryid=x-msp117.b007.f05.i04 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bizjournals.com/pittsburgh/blog/the-next-move/2015/06/new-buyer-eying-lawrenceville-school-for-hotel.html|title=New buyer looking at Lawrenceville school for hotel conversion|date=June 5, 2015|last=Schooley|first=Tim|publisher=Pittsburgh Business Times|accessdate=November 27, 2016}} External links
