South School (Torrington, Connecticut)
United States historic place
The South School is a historic school building at 362 South Main Street in Torrington, Connecticut. It is a Beaux Arts architecture building, designed by Wilson Potter and completed in 1915. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] It is significant as a well-preserved example of the work of Potter, a New York City-based designer of schools throughout the Northeastern United States, and as a prototype for other schools built in Torrington.[2] The building has been renovated for use as residential apartments. In 2010, a sign describes it as "South School Garden View Apartments".
