The Boulder Elementary School, at 351 N 100 E in Boulder, Utah, is a PWA Moderne-style school completed in 1936. The builder was Arthur McInelly, Sr., and the designer is not known. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
It is a one-story building built as a Works Progress Administration project during 1935–36. It was designed with a mix of PWA Moderne and classical elements. Its nomination describes it as having a front entrance porch with classical elements including "cornice returns, a pedimented head over the recessed doorway, and a transom above the door itself. The formality of the porch is broken by a zig-zag belt course that circles the building and gives it a sense of the abstract geometric quality associated with the moderne movement."[2]
It is currently the Boulder Town Office.[3]
