Tyrell Anderson, president of Decay Devils, believes there’s a lot of community excitement for a project to clean up Theodore Roosevelt High School. “It’s not necessarily excitement for, ‘Hey I used to go to school here’,” Anderson said, “but more so, ‘I wonder what this space could be.’”Decay Devils, a Gary-based nonprofit, has partnered with Indiana Landmarks to help clean inside the former high school.
