Place U2: Ninth Street Middle School
Mike Hanlon's school yearsNamed in Mike's brief biography. No usable street relationship was recovered. That biography also names Derry Elementary, while the childhood scenes place him at the Neibolt Street Church School; the inconsistency is retained.
About Ninth Street Middle School
Ninth Street Middle School appears in the brief account of Mike Hanlon’s education. It is a named Derry institution, but Ninth Street itself has no recovered position in the reconstructed network. The biographical account also mentions Derry Elementary, while childhood scenes associate Mike with Neibolt Street Church School. The atlas preserves these school references separately rather than forcing them into one campus or silently resolving the inconsistency. Ninth Street Middle School therefore remains an off-map historical record.
Why this place has no pin
No location. The book doesn’t say where it is; no point on the map.
The school is marked U because its name is the only spatial clue. No cross street, route, district, neighbouring place or direction locates Ninth Street within Derry. The conflicting educational references concern chronology and identity but do not create a coordinate. Placing the school beside either known campus would imply a connection not stated by the source. It remains unlocated until the street can be tied independently to the town plan.
