The Bowditch School is an historic school building at 80–82 Green Street in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. The three-story brick-and-granite Classical Revival building was designed by Harrison Henry Atwood, a prominent local architect, and was built in 1892. Its main facade has a projecting three-part pavilion, with square entry openings at the base, and round-arch windows at the top level, with a modillioned cornice. It is named for Nathaniel Bowditch, a noted early 19th-century astronomer and mathematician.[1]
By 1981 Boston Public Schools stopped using the facility, and the city government deemed it excess to the city's needs in July of that year.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.
