Old Bisbee High School was constructed in 1914 by architect Norman F. Marsh and was Bisbee's first high school. It would accommodate up to 450 students until the new high school was constructed in the late fifties. It is considered a historic landmark today because it is the only building in the US to have a ground-level entrance for four different stories. The building would go on to serve as county offices for the District Library, Adult Probation, Elections, and more. The building is currently vacant and awaiting renovation into apartments. <ref>https://www.bisbee.us/history</ref>
