July 7, 2015: The brick and oversized window openings, if not the small playground, give away that this building in Holland was a school once. (Photo of the back, facing what clearly was a bad direction for the time of day.)
Four-fifths of the entire population of Holland, Iowa, could fit inside one of the larger lecture halls at Iowa State University, but this almost-suburb of Grundy Center once had its own school. That ended a long time ago, though, and now time has run out on the building itself. The town doesn’t have enough money for upkeep, and the building will be demolished, the Grundy Register reports.
