And at my school there's no parking whatsoever. None. Nada. Zippo. Doesn't really matter since everyone takes public transportation anyway. No tracks, no fields, nor anything of the sort. Can't find any pics on my school but here's some info. Oh well.

In 1936 New York City Mayor Fiorello H. LaGuardia founded The High School of Music and Art in order to provide a facility where the most gifted and talented public school students of New York City could pursue their talents in art or music while also completing a comprehensive academic program of instruction.
In 1948, The School of Performing Arts opened its doors on 46th St., in the heart of the theater district. As a vocational program with a strong academic component, the school offered intense studio training in instrumental music, drama and dance.
It was the late American composer, William Schuman, President Emeritus of Lincoln Center, who first proposed consolidating M.& A. and P.A. and bringing them to Lincoln Center. To that end, in 1961, M.& A. and P.A. became one, organizationally. In Sept. 1984, Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts opened its doors.
Over the years, the school has earned an international reputation for excellence. The accomplishments of our graduates serve as the most vivid proof of the value and worth of our specialized programs of instruction. Our alumni have distinguished themselves in virtually every field of endeavor.
