Annie Lathrup Elementary School

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

A defunct elementary school. There is an uncited, and apparently unfounded claim in the article that it is the village's only historic landmark. While Lathrup Village Historic District does exist, it does not appear to key on this particular building. In fact, that article doesn't even mention this building. Fails WP:GNG.

 * I added sources for that point. A picture of the building appears on the cover of every report that has come out about the Lathrup Village historic district. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jskarf (talk • contribs) 13:02, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment It was in the historic district and then in 2010 it was rezoned to the Village Center. It's claimed to be on the National Register of Historic Places. It's known more as Annie Lathrup School, a private/charter school and is now vacant. I would see it redirect to Lathrup Village. But it seems like they still haven't figured out what they want to do with the building as it's been empty for many years, maybe 1999  some use as a farmer's market for the parking lot      AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 21:16, 12 June 2018 (UTC) updated 00:52, 13 June 2018 (UTC)

 * Merge to the HD or village article: The Annie Lathrup school is one of 994! contributing buildings of the historic district, and is one of 10? non-residential buildings. It is not individually listed of the NRHP. The nomination document has three paragraphs on the school building. It does not seem to have a whole lot of notability on its own. (on a separate point, the HD article is less extensive than the section in the village article, and should maybe be merged there) Chris857 (talk) 03:03, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Merge to the Lathrup Village article. Given two reasonably related merge targets, I would go for the one where it should be of more substantive importance. I think there is more than a redirect in play Nosebagbear (talk) 10:20, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
