Plan showing the National Register boundaries. Paul Lawrence Dunbar School, Fort Myers, Lee County, Florida, is a two -story, T- shaped, Mission -style building built in 1927. The school was built as the first high school for African American students in Lee County. The original building has undergone few alterations and still serves its original function as a public school. The present school complex includes several buildings constructed in the 1950s, which are excluded from the nomination. The Paul Lawrence Dunbar School is significant for its association with African American community life and education in the Fort Myers, Florida, area. This property illustrates boundaries including the historic core of a prop- erty but excluding peripheral, noncon- tributing buildings. Verbal boundary description: The boundary for the Dunbar School is shown as the dotted line on the accompanying scale map entitled "Site Plan, Dunbar School." Boundary justification: The bound- ary includes the building and immedi- ately adjacent grounds historically associated with Dunbar School and excludes that part of the original site now occupied by new construction. Thomas I. Stoner House, Des Moines, Polk County, Iowa, is an early 20th century Spanish Eclectic style house. The Stoner house is significant as a rare example of its style, display- ing high artistic values and properly expressed design principles associated with the style, particularly the de- tailed stonework and balanced massing with side wings. The house is located on an irregular corner lot, overlooking Waveland Golf Course. The boundary for this property is limited to area that continues to be associated with the house and ex- cludes areas historically separated from the house. Verbal boundary description: The nominated property occupies the eastern 31.4 feet of lot 53 and all of lots 54, 55, and 56 in Waveland Hills in Des Moines and is roughly 168 x 181 feet in size. Bound- ary justification: The boundary includes the immediate grounds that have historically been associated with the property and that maintain historic integrity. At the time of construction, the owner also owned lots 52 and 57 -60, property that was later subdivided and therefore is excluded from this nomination.
