Public School 7 is a historic school building located in the Dumbo section of Brooklyn, New York City. It was built in 1882 to designs by James W. Naughton. It is a three-story, I-shaped masonry building faced with pressed brick and trimmed in sandstone. It consists of a three-bay center section flanked by a two window-wide wing on either side. Attached to the original building is a rectangular two story brick-and-stone annex built in 1907.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 3, 1983.[1] Today it serves as the home of the AMG School of Licensed Practical Nursing.[4][5]
