In the past year a portion of the Prospect Park East River Road neighborhood
was designated an official historic site.  Included in the description of
the protected site is the Pratt School.  As a result, the building cannot be
sold or modified without consideration of the effect on the Pratt School as
an historic structure.  What that means is that the Minneapolis Public
Schools will NOT be able to dispose of the building without going through
the procedures for preservation of an historic structure.  It's an
additional reason that the MPS can't, willy-nilly, dispose of it on its own
whim.

That, and other information will be available at a PPERRIA meeting to
consider action on the proposed closure that is being held Sunday night at 7
PM at the Prospect Park United Methodist Church.
