150th Year of Jonesboro: Water Tower & JHS

Posted on 20:09 by Unknown
Here's one of the pictures I showed tonight on the news. If you have been watching, I've been showing old pictures in celebration of Jonesboro's 150th birthday. This is the old water water located between Main Street and Madison. While the water tower is the focal point of the picture, I was more interested in the building at the top of the picture. (click to enlarge)

That's the old Jonesboro High School. It was destroyed on May 27th, 1973. That tornado killed 4 people in the city and caused MAJOR damage.

I've been searching for pictures of the old Jonesboro High School. If you have one, email me at ryan@kait8.com

Have a great night,
Ryan
