Standard 1950s gym, with bank-like looking lobby.
Oddly enough September of 2024 was my first ever visit to the gymnasium at Reavis High School in Burbank. I’ve covered Reavis’ teams for over a decade, but just never had a home game until this week.

The gym has a really interesting lobby. Lined with I believe black marble with goldish flecks and lines in the stone used for walls. If you’ve ever walked into a bank, court house, or post office built in the 1950s you may walk up the concession stand looking for a withdrawal slip.
