St. Bassard's Main Hall

The St. Bassard's Main Hall was the largest building of the St. Bassard's School and Home for Disadvantaged Youth. The main hall included the kitchens and other service rooms on the ground floor and in the basement. These service rooms included laundry rooms. On the floor above the service rooms was the dining hall which took up the entire floor aside from the stairs. The three floors above the dining hall (3,4 and 5) were the boarding rooms, three and four were for boys, floor 5 was for girls. Each residential floor had 12 boarding rooms for four human-sized wards (though actual ward size varied) , and one room for the resident warden on duty for the evening. Finally, the top floor was the gymnasium.
St. Bassard's main entrance was to the southwest on Cathedral Street. A back entrance was to the northeast on Marketplace Low Road. The building communicated directly with the bath house and the classroom building.
