  • Report on Designation Lpb 559/08
    REPORT ON DESIGNATION LPB 559/08 Name and Address of Property: MGM Building 2331 Second Avenue Legal Description: Lot 7 of Supplemental Plat to Block 27 to Bell and Denny’s First Addition to the City of Seattle, according to the plat thereof recorded in Volume 2 of Plats, Page 83, in King County, Washington; Except the northeasterly 12 feet thereof condemned for widening 2nd Avenue. At the public meeting held on October 1, 2008, the City of Seattle's Landmarks Preservation Board voted to approve designation of the MGM Building at 2331 Second Avenue, as a Seattle Landmark based upon satisfaction of the following standard for designation of SMC 25.12.350: C. It is associated in a significant way with a significant aspect of the cultural, political, or economic heritage of the community, City, state or nation; and D. It embodies the distinctive visible characteristics of an architectural style, period, or of a method of construction. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE This building is notable both for its high degree of integrity and for its Art Deco style combining dramatic black terra cotta and yellowish brick. It is also one of the very few intact elements remaining on Seattle’s Film Row, a significant part of the Northwest’s economic and recreational life for nearly forty years. Neighborhood Context: The Development of Belltown Belltown may have seen more extensive changes than any other Seattle neighborhood, as most of its first incarnation was washed away in the early 20th century. The area now known as Belltown lies on the donation claim of William and Sarah Bell, who arrived with the Denny party at Alki Beach on November 13, 1851.

    Irving Berlin “This Is the Life!” The Breakthrough Years: 1909–1921 by Rick Benjamin “Irving Berlin remains, I think, America’s Schubert.” —George Gershwin It was a perfect late summer evening in 2015. A crowd had gathered in the park of a small Pennsylvania town to hear the high-school band. I was there to support my trombonist son and his friends. The others were also mostly parents and relatives of “band kids,” with a sprinkling of senior citizens and dog walkers. As the band launched its “covers” of current pop hits toward the treetops, some in the crowd were only half-listening; their digital devices were more absorbing. But then it happened: The band swung into a new tune, and the mood changed. Unconsciously people seemed to sit up a bit straighter. There was a smattering of applause. Hands and feet started to move in time with the beat. The seniors started to sing. One of those rare “public moments” was actually happening. Then I realized what the band was playing—“God Bless America.” Finally, here was something solid—something that resonated, even with these teenaged performers. The singing grew louder, and the performance ended with the biggest applause of the night. “God Bless America” was the grandest music of the concert, a mighty oak amongst the scrub. Yet the name of its creator—Irving Berlin—was never announced. It didn’t need to be. A man on a bench nearby said to me, “I just love those Irving Berlin songs.” Why is that, anyway? And how still? Irving Berlin was a Victorian who rose to fame during the Ragtime Era.

In 1907, the theater became part of the Orpheum Vaudeville circuit and was renamed the Orpheum Theatre. In 1923, a fired destroyed the building, which was rebuilt. A new, larger theater opened in 1928. The Malco theater chain purchased the building in 1940, running first run movies until 1976. The following year, the Memphis Development Foundation purchased the Orpheum and began bringing Broadway productions and concerts back to the theater. The theater underwent another renovation in the early 1980s, restoring it to its 1928 grandeur. At present, the Orpheum continues to bring in performances and averages ten to twelve Broadway shows a year. The Orpheum Collection consists of two boxes spanning 1 linear foot. The collection contains materials from the Memphis and Shelby County Room pertaining to the Orpheum Theatre. Items in the collection include the souvenir opening programs from 1928 and 1984; Orpheum publications: Backstage, After Five, Broadway at the Orpheum, Marquee, and the Orpheum Circuit News; and miscellaneous memorabilia. Single photocopies or scans of unpublished writings in these papers may be made for purposes of scholarly research. While the Memphis Public Library & Information Center may house an item, it does not necessarily hold the copyright on the item, nor may it be able to determine if the item is still protected under current copyright law.

It’s always my pleasure because I was lucky enough to grow up in this very house — before it became a museum — and so I have this affinity for this house, this place, this land, and all that we do. And the fact that we have community partners is so terrific. So to have Ye Olde Curiosity Shop as a partner and having this exhibit is just so terrific. Thank you all for coming, and I hope you enjoy our panel. I’m sure we will. Clay Eals OK, I get to have some fun here because I used to be a journalist. If I were to have a gravestone it would say, “Journalist.” And so what we are going to do today, instead of making people make speeches, is I am going to ask some questions. I want to introduce you to the people whom you are going to hear from today. We have three generations of Jameses here today, and their family members. We have Joe James, who is the grandfather – grandfather? You are, but you’re also the grandson of J.E. (Joseph) “Daddy” Standley, who founded the Ye Olde Curiosity Shop in 1899, but I also hear that it may have been 1901. Maybe we will clear this up today. We have Joe’s son Andy, and he, you’re hands-on proprietor now.
