Sister Clara Housing Co-op ![]() 25 Units Of Co-op Housing Built in 1911, the former Benedict Fenwick School was sold in 1980 and reopened as the Sister Clara Muhammad School.

The school received the Maxwell Award for conservation and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The rehabilitation was performed in accordance with National Park Service guidelines.
