Concrete Structure in Playground

A question was asked in the Preston Street School recollections pages about the purpose of the large concrete structure in the school playground.  Here is a recent photo of the structure.

I think there is no doubt that the purpose of the structure is to shore up the tenement building adjoining the school playground.
