Woodrow Wilson High School by Paul R. Williams, Los Angeles, 1968-1969
- Description:
- The current Woodrow Wilson High School campus and buildings were designed by the renowned African American architect Paul R. Williams. It was an engineering challenge to excavate over one million cubic yards of earth to re-grade the hilltop and to use 3,500 tons of structural steel for the main buildings. The new Wilson High was the first LAUSD school to implement multi-floored buildings equipped with elevators and escalators to accommodate students with disabilities.
