Show or less a month. Many taxpayers protested the building of such a lavish educational facility, often called the "million dollar" high school. The school's unique architectural style and its financing through a federal grant and a local bond issue allowed the structure to rise above its earlier opposition. On October 1, 1935, a small group of school officials and supporters met to break ground for the new school. The school was built by George A. Whitmeyer and Sons of Ogden. The Works Project Administration (WPA) proved an economic "beanstalk" for Ogden as it poured hundreds of thousands of needed dollars into the local economy and created jobs for large crews of depression-idled unemployed. The cornerstone was laid on September 17, 1936, not quite a year after the groundbreaking. The following year, students moved into the new facility. Architect Hodgson had earlier envisioned a "building that caught the rhythm of the Rockies,because of its mountainous setting that reflected a ruggedness in an intricate design of beauty." During the dedication ceremony in the new auditorium on October 29,1937, a crowd of 3,000 people heard a speaker call the school "a monument to the designers' foresight and a building of architectural excellence." The finished structure stood 480 feet long and 350 feet wide with four floors |
