Norfolk Academy was first located on Bank Street in downtown Norfolk, now its accessible via Charlotte Street and St. Paul's Boulevard. The building was designed by Thomas Ustick Walter, who was later the fourth architect of the U.S. Capitol, designing its dome. The Greek-revival building, featured on the school's current seal (at right), was modeled after the Temple of Thesus in Athens. Subsequently, the building would serve as a military hospital during the American Civil War, a Red Cross building in World War I and from 1920-1970 as the City of Norfolk's Juvenile and Domestic Relations Court, and from 1973 as the City of Norfolk's Chamber of Commerce.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = The Virginian Pilot, 2008, )〕〔 and (''Accompanying photo'' )〕
