Laramie Plains Civic Center

Or as I knew it in my day... the Junior High School. We moved to Laramie in the summer before I started 7th grade. This was the huge school I was to start in and I was terrified. It turned out to be fine of course. When I was in 9th grade we moved mid year to the "New" Junior High. It's over 40 years old now and many still call it the "New" JH. It sure didn't have the cool factor that this building does.
It was repurposed as our civic center and it is a fabulous building full of offices, artists, music studios a wonderful theater, gyms and a coffee bar.  From the web site:
The historic Laramie Plains Civic Center (LPCC) is an impressive building in the heart of Laramie, Wyoming. The LPCC is the oldest school building in the state, originally built as the East Side School in 1878, and the first stone building in the Wyoming Territory. Two major additions were completed in 1928 and 1939 following the original construction. These multiple structures of the LPCC form a block square facility, occupying an entire block with a footprint of nearly 58,000 square feet.
