Sheet

As written

“P.S. 200 — 1952”

NYC records give P.S. 200-Q a 1953 built date; today's Q200 is still at 70-10 164 Street.

Why it matters

It demonstrates how Rita's list records the year Joseph was actually on a job rather than the ceremonial completion year.

Scope confidence

Probable

Likely: most likely CMU/concrete-block classroom, corridor, service and fire-rated walls, with exterior brick/block wall systems where the school/library used masonry cladding.

This scope is recorded as probable, not documented. It is a disciplined reading of the building and the trade practice of the period, not a contract-level record of Kelly’s work.
