City, school officials surprised by timing

While the list of “wins” in Prescott’s historic preservation is extensive, one long-time preservation advocate maintains that this week’s demolition of the old Miller Valley Elementary School counts among the “losses.”
“You win some and lose some, and I think this is a big loss for Prescott,” Nancy Burgess, former historic preservation specialist for the City of Prescott, said of the razing of the school building located at the corner of Miller Valley and Iron Springs roads.
