Cascara School At 1909 McKee St.


Highrise Tower

Recommended Posts

The Cascara School opened as a small schoolhouse in 1893 and was renamed in 1906 for Sidney Sherman. The school building was the second oldest in the city, but the original structure was destroyed and rebuilt.

Now the site of Sherman Elementary School.

The architect for this beautiful building is Nicholas J. Clayton.

From the book The Houston Buildings of N.J. Clayton by Stephen Fox.

Cascara School (1893), subsequently known as Sidney Sherman School, stood on the far north edge of Houston when first built. / Art work of Houston, 1894.
