Remnants of entryway and bell tower - Salem Community School, Fayetteville AR.

Community efforts to stabilize the Salem Community School in NW Fayetteville couldn't outrun the severe ice storm that swept through the area in January 2009, and later fire damage destroyed any remaining hopes of salvaging the building. Listed as one of 2007's "Most Endangered Places" by the Historic Preservation Alliance of Arkansas in April of that same year, the building was already in trouble prior to the record-setting storm.
