City:	New Orleans, LA
Specific property affected:	Phillis Wheatley Elementary School, 2300 Dumaine St, New Orleans, LA
Comments:	Please do not allow the demolition of this historic structure. The flexibility of the building's design provides ample opportunity for adaptive reuse and could be it renovated more quickly and economically than a replacement would be. The structure is elevated well above the flood elevation and provides shaded play space under the building. The auxiliary buildings adjacent to the elevated classroom buildings could be replaced with a multi-story, up to date educational building. Thank you for your consideration.
