Hint: It's named after one of Reno's pioneers and is in a park. There are some other Reno places bearing this name as well. Extra points if you can name at least one of these additional places. Enter your answer in the comments.

The old school house at Bartley Ranch on Guss Bartley’s old property.

Heather is partly right. It is an old school at Bartley Ranch Regional Park. We still need the name of the school and other places with the same name.

The old Huffaker school originally located on Huffaker Road… :) Am I the only renoite here or what?!

Bingo! Heather wins (the satisfaction of being a knowledgeable Renoite). There is also Huffaker Ln. which leads to Huffaker Park in the Huffaker Hills. The name came from Granville Huffaker, an early Truckee Meadows pioneer. Read more about Reno / Tahoe Place Names.
