THE CHALLENGE

Washington High School opened in 1906. Due to declining enrollment, the school closed in May of 1981. After sitting vacant for decades, the building has been converted to retail and office spaces. Versatile modified the original window design to create over 60 replica top sash and operable bottom sash with double pane insulated glass and simulated divided lites. These new sashes were installed into the original frames and re-connected to the existing weight and pulley systems.
