Justification

The former Lincoln High School, located in Rockville, is a landmark in Montgomery County's Black education history. Opened in 1935, it is the oldest remaining high school building and the only junior high school constructed for Black students in Montgomery County. The building was most recently occupied by Crusader Baptist Church of God. A structural and environmental assessment of the facility was performed in March 2020 by O'Connell and Lawrence at DGS's request and revealed a wide array of structural issues that indicated property maintenance code violations for the existing building that warranted timely abatement. The report indicated that a renovation would correct structural problems (the roof is in danger of severe failure), correct code violations (the plumbing, mechanical and electrical systems are noncompliant), and mitigate environmental issues by removing lead and asbestos. The report also stated that the structural and water damage cannot be fully determined without removal of the roof/ceiling assembly as well and plaster and drywall at the exterior load bearing walls and interior columns. In March 2020, the City of Rockville issued a notice that the facility should not be occupied in its current state.
