Buildings
The downtown area contains a number of historical buildings, many of them dating to the city's peak days in the late 19th century and early 20th. These include the Romanesque Revival (Old) Central High School building (now the administrative offices of Duluth's school district), the Duluth Opera House, and the Union Depot (now a museum), among many others. Newly constructed ones are less common than older edifices, although some large newer buildings such as the Tech Village are present.

Famous quotes containing the word buildings:
“If the factory people outside the colleges live under the discipline of narrow means, the people inside live under almost every other kind of discipline except that of narrow means—from the fruity austerities of learning, through the iron rations of English gentlemanhood, down to the modest disadvantages of occupying cold stone buildings without central heating and having to cross two or three quadrangles to take a bath.”
—Margaret Halsey (b. 1910)
