As we report in this newsletter, our Smart Growth Stevens Point legislation teeters only one step away from passage in the Legislature as does our Bev Anderson, Darlington proposal for a dramatically expanded Stewardship land protection fund. The long Dennis Boyer, Linden debate over the land use impacts of new septic system technologies may be headed Marigen Carpenter, Neenah toward a positive solution. In addition, the stage is being set for progress on reform of Wisconsin’s 20 year-old and limping Farmland Preservation Program. Walter John Chilsen, Wausau Arlen Christensen, Madison After better than two decades of little or no progress in land use legislation, why David Cieslewicz, Madison is so much happening so fast? The first answer that comes to my mind is self- Emily Earley, Madison serving: us! When we formed our organization three years ago, 1000 Friends of Robert Ellingson, Amherst Wisconsin vowed to put a positive land use agenda before the Legislature and to Kristine Euclide, Monona fight vigorously for its enactment. We’re doing exactly that. So, I don’t think it’s Jim Holperin, Eagle River just self-congratulatory to say that a big part of the reason for this progress is 1000 Charles James, Milwaukee Friends. Bud Jordahl, Madison Tom Quinn, Menomonie But there’s more to it. We have been able to pull together an unusual coalition Roger Shanks, Merrimac of groups behind our Smart Growth initiative. That coalition, brought together by Jeanie Sieling, Fitchburg our board member and UW professor Brian Ohm, includes groups as diverse as the Deb Slavin, Middleton Realtors, the Sierra Club, the Towns Association and the Alliance of Cities. There Charles Trainer, Milwaukee is a broader recognition that Wisconsin’s population is growing, that growth is not Jim Van Deurzen, Mazomanie often being managed well, and that in order to protect and enhance our quality of life we need to get a handle on it. 1000 Friends of Wisconsin Land Use Institute Most importantly, this recognition of the problems and the opportunities for Jeanie Sieling, President solutions extends beyond interest groups in Madison to Wisconsin citizens Fitchburg everywhere. After all, 1000 Friends wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for our 1,800 Judith Adler, Janesville members in 250 communities all over the state. In a very real sense, we’re starting to make progress in reigning in sprawl because of you. Jim Arts, Madison Juli Aulik, Madison Soon, maybe even before you receive this newsletter, the state budget will be David Cieslewicz, Madison passed – with or without our Smart Growth and Stewardship proposals.

  • The Architecture of the Illusive Distance Amir H
    The Architecture of the Illusive Distance Amir H. Ameri Sounding Space From early to mid 1930s, movie-theater design in the United States underwent a profound transformation. By the end of the decade, new movie-theaters bore little resemblance to the movie-theaters of the preceding decade (Figure 1 & Figure 2). The call for change had come at least as early as 1927 from, among others, Seymour Stern, the noted film critic. However, it was not until the early 1930s that the movie palaces of the preceding decade were supplanted by a new movie-theater design, of which Benjamin Schlanger’s Thalia Theater of 1932 was a pioneering example. The call for change in movie-theater design and its eventual realization coincide all too conspicuously with the introduction and eventual widespread adoption of sound in movies. Although introduced to a wider audience in 1927, it was not until the early 1930s that the initial technological challenges were overcome, the novelty dissipated and the “talkies” became merely movies.1 The initial Vitaphone or sound-on-disk technology proved notoriously unreliable for keeping image and sound in sync.2 It was not until the early 1930s, when it was abandoned in favor of sound-on-film technology that the synchronization problems that besieged early “talkies” were finally overcome.3 It took equally long to realistically reproduce the human voice. It is approximately at this latter date that a new movie-the- ater design comes into vogue. In the meantime, Alexander Bakshy’s complaint about being “treated to hollow and squawking and lisping voices, and even to imperfect synchronization” remained commonplace.4 Significant as the introduction of sound was and closely as it was followed by calls for change in movie-theater design, besides their temporal coincidence, movie- theater historians have found no apparent connection between the widespread adop- tion of sound and the advent of a new movie-theater design.

  • Evolution of American Movie Theaters. the Files Include More Than 24,000 Images and Some 315 Linear Feet of Paper Materials
    evolution of American movie theaters. The files include more than 24,000 images and some 315 linear feet of paper materials. The images and papers ill ustrate how movie screenings first became an established part of programs offered in vaudeville theaters and opera houses, and th en how storefront spaces in existing buildings were adapted for the specific purpose of exhibiting fi lms and became "nickelodeons." Mter that came custom-built theaters, open-air theaters, and ornate movie "palaces," built mainly in larger cities in the 1910s and '20s. The B'hend and Kaufmann Collection includes photos and background information for many "palaces," and shows how that aesthetic fi ltered down to neighborhood houses in communities of all sizes. Left: This spectacular, neoclassical neighborhood theater in Chicago, designed by J.E.O. Pridmore, opened in 1927. The Sheridan later became a synagogue, then ran Spanish-language films, before being demolished in 1994. Right: Grauman's Chinese Theatre, which opened in 1927 in Hollywood, is likely the world's best-known movie theater. Previously, exhibitor Sid Grauman had contributed the Million Dollar, Egyptian and Metropolitan (later the Paramount, Downtown) to the Los Angeles theater scene. The photos depict every aspect of a theater: exteriors, marquees, box offices, lobbies, decor, auditoria, projection booths, concession stands, even personnel. The photographic collection also captures important technological developments: the coming of sound, CinemaScope, 3D, Cinerama and other landmarks. The paper h oldings include box office records, legal documents such as leases and insurance reports, inventories, newspaper and magazine clippings, programs (many original), and booklets on restoration projects.

The power of this we give to you...for your entertainment. You are the monarch while the play is on!" - June 1929 newspaper advertisement for San Francisco’s ‘fabulous Fox Theater In 1960, fading movie queen Gloria Swanson posed majestically against the half-gutted backdrop of the soon to be demolished Roxy Theater in New York City. It was a fitting tribute to the old time movie palace once christened ‘the Cathedral of the Motion Picture’ by its founder Samuel L. Rothapfel. A Swanson movie had opened the Roxy to great pomp and fanfare some thirty years before. 1 But by 1960, Hollywood was already in a bad way – financially speaking - and the movie palace itself in even worse condition to weather the changing tide in audience tastes and dwindling theatrical attendance from the onslaught of television. A decade earlier the U.S. government had forced a split between theater chains and movie studios; seen as an antitrust move that would generate more free market enterprise for the independent distributor.

  • The Gateway Theater Logan Square
    Newsletter – January 2017 Number XXV A Gorgeous Garden of Dreams: The Gateway Theater Logan Square This past year, the Northwest Chicago Historical Society was proud that Jefferson Park and Portage Park were chosen to showcase venues in Open House Chicago, an annual architectural festi- val organized by the Chicago Architecture Foundation. Multiple establishments on the Northwest side opened their door for the very first time to host curious guests from all over the country. The venues included the Copernicus Center, Carl Schurz High School, the Jefferson Masonic Temple, the Rivoli Theater, Our Lady of Victory, Portage Arts Lofts, and the Portage Theater. Over 100,000 people partici- pated this year, making it one of the largest events of its kind in the world. We hope that we are able to continue to bring more people into the area to visit our historical and cultural heritage. In our most recent newsletter issues, members were most excited about the movie theater pic- tures, so this issue continues on that theme. This time, we feature the Kobelinski Theater, a theater inside the Copernicus Center that has been redeveloped into a cultural venue and multi-event complex. At one time, this was called the Gateway Theater, and it was the largest movie palaces on the Northwest Side. Since the Copernicus Center purchased the Gateway, they transformed the lobby and outside mar- quee to be more reflective of its current usage. However, the community is fortunate that they saved the theater from the wrecking ball and have beautifully preserved the historic, decorative interior. While the venue now is mostly used for live performances, the center also hosts many multi-cultural and neighbor- hood events.

The Golden Age of Cooling Historic Theaters and Their Impact on Air Conditioning Today BY ROGER CHANG, P.E., MEMBER ASHRAE The performing arts have been an integral part of the history and culture of society. Access to performance evolved significantly starting in the late 19th century, inextri- cably tied to developments in the conditioning of performance spaces. Overheated theaters had been a concern for centuries, with the cheapest seats often up higher and exposed to even higher temperatures. A theater presented significant challenges for comfort and wellness, given they were often windowless, ornate, and most of all, packed with both performers and audience members. In an era before electric light- ing, gas jets were used, often pushing temperatures past 100°F (38°C).¹ First Innovations distributed through a network of smaller “pipes” emerg- Most theaters in New York City had no choice but to ing throughout the auditorium.
