Boys High School, Public high school in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, United States.

The four-story Romanesque Revival building features a round corner tower, gables, dormers, and a campanile topped with a pyramid roof at 832 Marcy Avenue.

James W. Naughton designed this educational institution in 1891, which received additions from architect C.B.J. Snyder between 1905 and 1910 to accommodate more students.

Many notable graduates emerged from this institution, including author Isaac Asimov, composer Aaron Copland, and jazz musician Max Roach who shaped American arts and literature.

The structure now functions as an educational facility housing various programs, maintaining its original purpose of serving the Brooklyn community through learning initiatives.
