New Iberia High School (1926 building)

The former New Iberia High School building is a historic structure located at 415 Center Street in New Iberia, Louisiana. It is a large Classical Revival building, three stories in height, built out of brick and stone. It was built in 1926 and enlarged in 1939 to a design by William T. Nolan, and is the parish's only example of Classical Revival design. It served as a high school until 1966, and as a middle school thereafter until 1990.[2][3] The building has since been converted to residential use and is currently hosting the School Days Apartments.
