This is pretty cool, especially if you are into old gyms. Riverside High School, which is a 2nd location for Herron, is going to use the old Heslar Armory in Indy for it's building, complete with keeping much of the armory's gym intact.
"In the drill hall—a double-sized gymnasium—artist Charles Bauerle, under commission by the Works Progress Administration, painted four 12×15-foot murals depicting famous naval battles. The high school will keep nearly all of the historic nautical elements, with the drill hall serving as home gym for both Riverside and Herron high schools."
That is from an article on the Indiana Landmarks website: https://www.indianalandmarks.org/event/naval-armory-tour/
You can tour the building Nov. 5.
