What Should Fill the Former Waldorf School Building?

Cape Ann Waldorf School has been in its "new" home at Moraine Farm in North Beverly for the past three years.

Before moving to Project Adventure's former administrative space, the school had been in a building on Hale Street in Beverly Farms, next to St. Margaret's Church for almost 20 years.

The school had been looking for a new home for a while during its time in the Farms, including submitting a bid for the former Edwards School on Rantoul Street when it was being sold by the city. The school was later converted into residential condos. It later also submitted a bid for the vacant McKay School at about the time the school bought the Moraine Farm property.

The Waldorf school was in the Farms building since 1992 but was looking for new space because it wanted field space and an auditorium, school officials said a the time.

The former school building on Hale Street in the Farms remains empty today and for sale by the Archdiocese of Boston.

The 16,000 square foot building is priced at $1.66 million, according to a real estate listing by Colliers International.

The building was built in 1958 and sits on .75 acre of land, according to the real estate listing.

The listing says that the building would be good for elderly housing or other residential uses as well as a school.

What would be a good use for it? What should the next use be for the building? Tell us in the comments.
