The Schoolfield Welfare Building is a historic function hall at 917 West Main Street in Danville, Virginia. The architecturally eclectic brick two story building was built 1916-17 by Dan River, Inc. as a social center for its workers. The building has a Mission-style tile hip roof, with extended eaves supported by brackets. The building housed meeting spaces, a day-care center, and a medical clinic, as well as providing a large function space. A kindergarten playhouse made out of false logs and daubing was added to the property in 1938. It is now owned by a non-profit organization. Read more on Wikipedia
