Built as Noe and Temple Primary School and later known as James Lick Grammar School. When the first story was built in 1874-1875, it was one story in height with four classrooms but was planned so two more stories could be built later. The second story, of four more classrooms, was added in 1881, and a third story was added in 1895, five years after this photo was taken. [WMK] [SC29]
