Stranahan Theater

The Stranahan Theater & Great Hall, commonly known as the Stranahan Theater, is a concert hall located in Toledo, Ohio. The facility was constructed in 1969 and until the mid-1990s was called Masonic Auditorium because attached to the west side of the theater is a structure owned and occupied by several Masonic organizations. Part of the construction and maintenance costs have been funded by the Stranahan Foundation. Around the time of the name change, theater management began seeking more broad-based community funding. The theater foyer is 3,000 square feet (280 m2) and the adjacent Great Hall features 10,000 square feet (930 m2) of meeting space. The property contains parking for 1,200 cars. Fulfilling its primary usage as a concert venue, the Stranahan Theater presents approximately 170 theater events a year. Broadway shows sponsored by Theater League have included The Phantom of the Opera, Chicago, The Lion King and Wicked. It is also the site of Pops concerts by the Toledo Symphony Orchestra, The Nutcracker by the Toledo Ballet, and A Christmas Carol by the Toledo Rep. In addition, the Great Hall hosts over 140 banquets, receptions, and trade shows each year. The Stranahan Theater is the largest proscenium stage in Northwest Ohio. It operates primarily as a rental house and is owned and operated by a 501c3 non-profit trust. Former executive directors include Penny Marks and Ward Whiting. Steve Hyman was named Executive Director in May 2014. References External links Stranahan Theater
Stricker's Grove

Stricker's Grove is a family owned amusement park located in Ross, Ohio, USA. Unlike other amusement parks, Stricker's Grove is closed to the public for most of the year. Instead, it is rented out for private functions, such as weddings. The park is open to the public for eight days of every year: on July 4, four days in mid-July for the Hamilton County 4-H Community Fair, the second Sunday in August (Family Day), Labor Day, and a Sunday in October called "Customer Appreciation Day." History The park was started in 1924 in Mt. Healthy, Ohio by Henry Stricker on 55 acres (22 ha) of property next to the Drive-in on Compton Rd. The Strickers lived in a house on the property. Henry Stricker initially used the land for a place for coworkers to come to on weekends to picnic and enjoy the countryside. A dance hall was later added and was designed so that if the park failed, it could be converted into a chicken coop. In the 1940s, a pony cart ride was added along with a horse and pony track. The first rides arrived at the park in 1954, including the Boat Ride and the Rockets, both of which remain in operation. Upon Henry's death in 1960, the park was passed on to his three sons, Harold, Elmer, and Ralph. In 1972, the park was relocated to Ross, Ohio, and Ralph became the sole owner. Ralph died in January 2007. His daughter Debbie and three longtime employees now operate the park. Rides and attractions Stricker's Grove currently has several amusement rides, including two "classic" wooden roller coasters. Tornado The larger of the roller coasters is Tornado, designed by Al Collins and built by Ralph Stricker. The ride started construction in 1990 and opened in 1993. The ride runs a single Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters train. The Tornado is a mirror image of the former John C. Allen-designed Jet Coaster (later known as the Mighty Lightnin' and the Comet) at the now-defunct Rocky Glen Park in Moosic, Pennsylvania. it goes 45 miles per hour. Teddy Bear The "Teddy Bear" wooden roller coaster is a small, family-sized ride first built in 1996, also by Ralph Stricker. Like the Tornado, the Teddy Bear coaster was built using the blueprints from the 1935-built Teddy Bear at Coney Island in Cincinnati, Ohio. The coaster has been recognized as an ACE Classic Coaster.

Stuart's Opera House

Stuart's Opera House is a registered historic building in Nelsonville, Ohio, listed on the National Register on December 29, 1978. It is an Opera House and live music performance theatre that was built in 1879, and continues to be used to this day. History Founding Story The man who would build Stuart's Opera House, George Stuart, began life in show business as the owner and operator of a showboat, traveling through the canal system of Ohio with a professional minstrel troupe. Stuart's showboat sank in 1869 with construction of his new opera house beginning soon after. Workers finished construction of the Opera House in 1879, at the start of Nelsonville's boom period brought about by the growing rail system which sent coal from the area to the industrialized north. The presence of an Opera House signaled that Nelsonville had thoroughly established itself. The building quickly became a cultural centerpiece of the town, not only as a place of entertainment, but as a gathering place for community events: from benefits for local organizations and high school graduations, to Sunday school classes too large to fit in the local church. The Opera House attracted a high caliber of shows as well, playing host to some of the most successful acts of the era. The Opera House would continue to be deeply connected to Nelsonville until its closure in 1924, which was brought about in part by audiences’ preference for film and the coal boom coming to a halt. Stuart's doors would remain closed until the 1970s when the Hocking Valley Museum of Theatrical History bought the building with the goal of restoring it to a working theater, as well as a place of learning. The hopes to restore Stuart's were nearly dashed, however, when the building was enveloped in flames on March 24, 1980. In the end, it was decided that Stuart's would be restored, and after an immense amount of money and effort, Stuart's was finally ready to house an audience once more.

Summit Mall

Summit Mall is a one-story, 850,000-square-foot (79,000 m2) enclosed shopping mall located at 3265 West Market Street in the Akron suburb of Fairlawn, Ohio, and with the closing of both Chapel Hill Mall and Rolling Acres Mall, it is the only remaining mall in Summit County. Edward J. DeBartolo Sr.'s DeBartolo Corporation built the mall, which opened on October 28, 1965. Today, it is owned by Simon Property Group. Currently, Summit Mall contains 110 stores (of which 104 are currently occupied) and a food court. The anchor stores are Macy's and two Dillard's locations (Dillard's and Dillard's Men's and Children's). History DeBartolo Corporation developed Summit Mall. First announced in 1963, the mall opened to the public in 1965. The original anchor stores were Cleveland, Ohio-based Halle Brothers Co. and two other department stores both based in Akron: O'Neil's and Polsky's. Other major tenants included Woolworth, Kroger, and Acme Markets. After Halle's 1982 shutdown, their location was transferred to Higbee's, which operated the store until it was taken over by Dillard's in late 1992. It was a full-line location (without housewares) until 1998 when the men's department relocated to the top floor of the former Polsky's / Jewel Mart space (see below). When Dillard's took possession of the North store, the men's department and housewares relocated back to the south store which was renovated in 2005–2006. O'Neil's became May Company Ohio in 1989, Kaufmann's in 1993, and Macy's in 2006. After Polsky's closed, Jewel Mart occupied the main floor level. In July 1986, a Dallas businessman proposed opening a laser tag facility in the basement of the former Polsky's. By July 1990, Rizzi's Ristorante and Pizzeria and Charlotte's West occupied the space on the half-vacant lower level. Jewel Mart was gone by 1991 and the top floor remained vacant until Dillard's moved their men's store and started a housewares department on the upper level in 1998. Rizzi's and Charlotte's West were both gone by 2004, giving Dillard's the opportunity to renovate both floors as a Dillard's Women's store. Summit Mall used to include a small movie theater. In July 1989, National Theatre Corporation (now Regal Entertainment Group) closed the two-screen theater at the mall when General Cinemas opened up a new theater at West Market Plaza. National Theater Corp. later opened a new theater in Montrose. In January 2013, Williams Sonoma announced it would close its location in the mall. In January 2017, Ann Taylor announced that it would close at the mall. References Further reading Mills, Emily (January 19, 2020). "As other shopping malls decline, Summit Mall thrives".

Superior Building

The Superior Building, originally known as the Cleveland Discount Building, is a high-rise building in Cleveland, Ohio. The building rises 265 feet (81 m) in Downtown Cleveland. It contains 22 floors, and was completed in 1922. The architectural firm who designed the building was Walker & Weeks. The building's design incorporates a set of Doric columns in its base. The Superior Building was one of the earliest skyscrapers to be completed in Cleveland. However, it never stood as the tallest structure in the city; the Keith Building, also completed in 1922, rose only 7 feet (2.1 m) taller, and thus captured the title of tallest building in Cleveland. The Superior Building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

Taft Museum of Art

Taft Museum of Art – muzeum sztuk pięknych położone w Cincinnati przy 316 Pike Street, znane jako jedno z najlepszych małych muzeów sztuki w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Zbudowana ok. 1820 siedziba muzeum figuruje na liście Narodowych Pomników Historycznych USA. W muzeum znajduje się blisko 700 dzieł sztuki, w tym obrazy mistrzów europejskich i amerykańskich, kolekcja chińskiej porcelany oraz eksponaty europejskiego rzemiosła artystycznego. Celem Taft Museum of Art jest zachowanie, wystawianie i dostarczanie informacji nt. jego unikatowych zbiorów i zabytkowego budynku, w którym się znajdują. Muzeum otwarto ponownie w 2004 roku po gruntownym remoncie, dzięki któremu powstała nowa galeria przeznaczona do wystaw specjalnych, urządzono na nowo ogrody, zbudowano parking i sklep muzealny. Historia Budynek muzeum, znany jako Baum-Longworth-Sinton-Taft House, został zbudowany około 1820 dla przedsiębiorcy Martina Bauma. Jest on najstarszą w USA budowlą drewnianą zachowaną lokalnie in situ, jest też uważany za jeden z najwspanialszych przykładów stylu stylu palladiańskiego w architekturze amerykańskiej. Po Baumie budynek przeszedł w ręce polityka Nicholasa Longwortha. Odnowił on jego wnętrza oraz wynajął afroamerykańskiego malarza Roberta Duncansona do namalowania pejzażowych murali w foyer, które uważane jest obecnie za jeden z najwspanialszych apartamentów udekorowanych muralami pochodzącymi sprzed wojny secesyjnej. Od Longwortha budynek kupił przemysłowiec David Sinton, ojciec współzałożycielki muzeum, Anny Sinton Taft, która mieszkała tu razem z mężem Charlesem Phelpsem Taftem od 1873 aż do ich śmierci, odpowiednio w 1929 i 1931. W 1908 przyrodni brat Charlesa Phelpsa Tafta, William Taft przyjął w tym domu nominację na prezydenta USA. W 1927 Taftowie zapisali w testamencie swój zabytkowy dom i własną kolekcję dzieł sztuki (liczącą 690 eksponatów) mieszkańcom miasta Cincinnati. Po przebudowie i modernizacji Baum-Longworth-Taft House został otwarty w 1932 jako Taft Muzeum. 15 maja 2004 Taft Museum of Art zostało po gruntownej renowacji i rozbudowie otwarte ponownie. Nowe obiekty, które doszły w wyniku rozbudowy, to m.in. galeria Fifth Third Gallery dla wystaw specjalnych, pokój edukacyjny Dater Educational Room, sala widowiskowo-odczytowa Luther Hall i sklep muzealny. W galerii Fifth Third Gallery miało miejsce kilka interesujących wystaw, między innymi: „Fashion in Film: Period Costumes for the Screen” ukazująca zbiór kostiumów noszonych przez aktorów grających w takich filmach jak m.in.: „Titanic,” „Evita”, „Indiana Jones i świątynia zagłady” i in. „Antique Christmas” prezentująca dekoracje bożonarodzeniowe i zabawki z XIX i XX w. „TruthBeauty: Pictorialism and the Photograph as Art, 1845–1945” ukazująca artystyczny dorobek piktorializmu. Zbiory Zbiory Taft Museum of Art obejmują: malarstwo dawnych mistrzów europejskich XIX-wieczne malarstwo amerykańskie sztukę chińską europejskie rzemiosło artystyczne rzeźbę europejską i amerykańską kolekcję zegarów z XVII–XIX w. kolekcję amerykańskich mebli z I poł.
