Six two-story buildings matching in architectural style, built symmetrically around a large, flat area with no vegetation or grass. The Woodburn School for Boys was built in 1926 to alleviate overcrowding at the state’s first correctional institution for boys, the Oregon State Reform School in Salem. Most of the boys at the Salem school were moved to the newly-built Woodburn campus, which is now called the MacLaren Youth Correctional Facility. Cottages at the Woodburn School were arranged around a formal quadrangle, part of a design by Arthur L. Peck, professor of landscape architecture at Oregon Agricultural College (today’s Oregon State University). Most of the buildings were designed by Knighton & Howell Architects & Engineers. This photograph was taken with a rotating panoramic camera called the Cirkut.
