History of Andrew Jackson Intermediate School nearly almost forgotten.

Andrew Jackson Intermediate School was an intermediate school located on the east side of Detroit, Michigan which operated from 1928 to 2007. Nearly all Detroit citizens know about this school, but its history is slowly being forgotten.

Andrew Jackson Intermediate School was designed by B.C. Wetzel & Co. and was built in 1928. Detroit Urbex highlights this school as “one of Detroit's more unique schools in terms of design”. The layout is fairly typical of school buildings designed in the 1920s. The school held up a capacity of 2,200 students. The school was fairly large for its size. However that is not surprising since this is and was a Detroit school.

Throughout its history, Andrew Jackson Intermediate School operated as an intermediate school and a middle school for Detroit Public School. Overall the school was closed in 2007 due to low enrollment and low test scores. Today the school now sits abandoned and unused.

Andrew Jackson Intermediate School is located at 4180 Marlborough Street, Detroit, Michigan, US 48215.
