Charles M. Robinson's Schoolhouses in Northern Virginia

Richmond-based architect Charles M. Robinson designed hundreds of hospitals, churches, college buildings and public schools in Virginia in the early 20th century. Most of his public schools were in the Richmond and Hampton Roads areas but several were built in Northern Virginia.

This site attempts to document Robinson's schools in Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William, which can be explored through the exhibit, Robinson's Schoolhouses. Six of these buildings are still standing and can be viewed on a Google map.
