Friday Flags:  A Naugatuck CT Building Re-Purposed

As happens in so many communities, school buildings become obsolete both for services as well as shifts in students. Such was the case for the Prospect Street school building for the town of Naugatuck CT.

The Prospect Street school was shut down some years back and now houses a gym as well as some small businesses. 

Driving down to Naugatuck from Prospect recently, I had to stop as the wind had the flag really seeking attention for the way it was waving.

While it may no longer be a place for kids to learn, at the very least the current occupants still keep the flag flying proudly.

Hello Ed - "repurposing" seems to be a way of life as our world continues to evolve.  It's interesting to see such new interpretations.   The thought you express in this series of posts, is not lost on me either.

Ed Silva, 203-206-0754 - there seems to be a lot of repurposing buildings these days in my area too. For example, Albertsons Grocer Store is now a church. The buildings next to the church (strip mall built) have been bulldozed down to the ground and new construction has begun to make the orginal Albertson's an enormous church.

Also, the Adminstrative Office for my school district added new buildings on, and the Administrative Office was bulldozed. Waiting to see now what that becomes.

Hi Ed:

It's good to hear the Naugatuck CT school building has been repurposed and put to good use. You caught the beauty of Old Glory in the breeze with a beautiful blue sky perfectly.

Enjoy your weekend.

It's kind of sad to see schools having to be repurposed throughout the United States, it seems like our education system is truly a mess.
