About
The Mission-style City landmark was built in 1923 by architect Charles W. Dickey, who also designed the Claremont Hotel, the Temescal and Golden Gate Libraries and Kahn's Department Store. It was designated in the eclectic spirit of the time blending a functional approach to a modern classroom building with the historical model of the California missions. In 1923, it was an outstanding educational facility including science and home economics labs and amenities such as study courts and above average concern for light and quiet.
In 1998, North Oakland Senior Center opened in the Auditorium of the University High School, a historic preservation project with 15,000 square feet of space creatively for senior and community programs. The entire site is 8.9 acres. The theater chairs in the hallway were originally inside the Auditorium, the scene of many UNI High School productions!
