The Broad Street School is a historic former school building at 100 Broad Street in Norwich, Connecticut. The school was designed by New York City architect Wilson Potter and built in 1897. It is a well-executed and well-preserved example of Romanesque styling, and was the largest school built as part of a major construction program by the city.[2] The schoolhouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 19, 1984.[1] It has been converted to residential use.
