LinkLinksOpinion Philip Kennicott in The Post: Planet Word, a new museum devoted to language, is a high-tech, feel-good experience By Editor On Oct 22, 2020 Last updated Oct 22, 2020 62 Share The Franklin School in downtown Washington has been empty for more than a decade, except for a brief period in 2011 when the Occupy Movement used it as a homeless shelter. One of the most significant historic structures in the city, and one of the most beautiful, the school was neglected and severely dilapidated. Preservationists have considered the brick building endangered since at least the 1970s, when the D.C. school board planned to tear it down. 62 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
