new PUBLIC SCHOOL
OF NOVEL: DESIGN FOR
ENCLEWOOD CLIFFS

Englewood Cliffs has started the
construction of school building of
the pavilion type, a style of school
rarely seen in this part
of the country.
This type of school is built extern
sively in California and other western
and middle western states. 1t consists
of one story units of one or more class
rooms, the units being held together by
connecting corridors. There are no
basement playrooms, but covered play
terraces on the ground level.
The present plans of the EngleWoOd
Cliffs school comprise two classroomS
and play terraces, and the next unit
to be added will doubtless be combi-
nation assembly room and gymnasium.
Eventually there will be a group of
four or more pavilions around cen
trail court
The floor construction will he fire

colonial design. having more the APP
pearance of a home than Il school of

Ernest Sbley of Palisade is the
architect, and it is one of the neatest
