Bowling Green High School occupied this space from 1928 until 1964. It then served as the junior high school until its closure in 2009. After the city purchased the property in 2010, and by action of city council on October 3, 2016, it became open public space. On June 1, 2018, this historic site was officially designated as Wooster Green.
