Description
"The Institute" was built by Churchill County as a boarding school around 1875. W.H.A. Pike was the first teacher and the county superintendent of schools. The boarding school could house around 30 students, most of whom could only attend for 3 months at a time. This building was later bought by the Seventh Day Adventists to use as a church. A portion of this building was moved to 295 East Park and was used as a Lutheran church and then converted into a home.
