“In the past 112 years, Washington School should have been rebuilt three times,” said Ken Carney, chairman of the city’s Building Oversight Committee. Carney on Monday provided a concept plan for a new Washington Elementary School, to be built on the same site as the current school at 369 Washington Ave. The project, which officials estimate to cost around $38 million, would be supplemented by $24 million in state bonding through a school construction reimbursement program. The building has been approved for about 42,000 square feet and would have air-conditioning, be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act, feature energy-saving fixtures and wireless internet. Before breaking ground, Carney said the city’s building committee first must select an architect, which it is narrowing from nine applicants.
