West Des Moines, IA

Visiting Des Moines and all the tourist stuff over there in October 2006, while in West Des Moines we came across this preserved school.  Bennett School. Built 1926-1927. Used until at least 1941 and then used as a home.  Originally on Fuller Rd and 50th St., now on Fuller Rd east of Grand Ave, moved there ca.1996.

    Thanks for that information link! Our guess was that it had been moved to its current location, and your link confirms that.
