Movie Musical Divas Tournament: Round 1
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Those who played at ghost singing, and those who lived it
Debbie Reynolds (1932-2016): Kathy Selden in Singin’ in the Rain* (1952) | Molly Brown in The Unsinkable Molly Brown (1964) | Judy in I Love Melvin (1953) *Dubbed in two songs by Betty Noyes, high notes and taps dubbed throughout.
"Part of one the most iconic movie musicals of all time (this movie is legit studied as the quintessential movie of the genre), held her own with G*ne K*lly and Donald O’Connor at just 19! Nominated for an Oscar in Molly Brown for portraying an equally badass woman. AND mother to The Carrie Fisher!" - @kingscatt
Marni Nixon (1930-2016): Deborah Kerr’s character in The King and I (1956) | Maria in West Side Story (1961) (she also was the voice of Anita during the Tonight Quintet) | Eliza in My Fair Lady (1964) | Sister Sophia in The Sound of Music (1965) | Marilyn Monroe's high notes in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)
"Time Magazine called her “The Ghostess with the Mostest” for her contributions to musical movies. If you like movie musicals from the sixties, chances are you’ve been listening to Marni Nixon the whole time and didn’t even know. Her career at Disney, while not relevant to the poll, is quite impressive as well. She had singing roles in Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, and Mulan. Without Marni, some of the most popular movies of the sixties would have sounded very different." @anton-wyzek

Federal Knitting Mills Building
2882 Detroit Ave.
Cleveland, OH 44113
The Federal Knitting Mills Building is located at 2860-2894 Detroit Avenue in Cleveland, Ohio, also 2820 and 2811-21 Vermont Ave., and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  Herbert G. (Goldberger) Goulder and Louis H. Hayes established the Federal Knitting Mills company in Cleveland in 1905. Within six months Louis L. (Seligman) Selden joined the company as a partner. The company, employing 75 people, was first located at a rented 10,000-square-foot loft at 600 Huron Road. Around 1910 the company relocated and became the sole occupant of a building at West 29th and Detroit. Little is known of the 1910 architect, Gustave B. Bohm. He was born in Cleveland around 1874 and educated in Cleveland's public schools. He attended Columbia University and was listed in Cleveland City Directories as an architect from 1901-1932 and died on April 15, 1934. The architects of the later additions, Christian-Schwarzenberg and Gaede Company, also designed the L.N. Gross Building.
     When the building was constructed in 1910 the neighborhood was primarily residential, with commercial buildings lining Detroit east of West 28th Street, towards downtown Cleveland. The Franklin Circle Historic District (a Cleveland Landmark) remains an equal mix of residential and commercial buildings. The majority of the residential buildings are two-story wood-framed Victorians. Commercial buildings are two to three-story masonry structures. The Federal Knitting Mills Building is recognized as one of the few remaining commercial buildings of the Franklin Circle Historic District. The 1910-1915 commercial-style building was designed by local architect Gustave B. Bohm. Additional construction for the building, required during the construction of Interstate Route 2, was headed by the architectural firm of Christian, Schwarzenberg and Gaede Company in 1917. The building is a three-story masonry constructed building, with a small additional one-story in the northeast "L" of the building. The interior structure is wood post and steel-beam construction, with skylights and a clerestory on the third floor.
     The Federal Knitting Mills Building is a Chicago Commercial style brick structure with stone decorative accents along the cornice. The building is a simple design, limited to detail in the fashion of the commercial style of the 1910s. Projecting piers between the bays minimizes the horizontal effect of the building. The facade faces Detroit Avenue, it is 44' high and carries 16 bays along Detroit Avenue. There are two entrances at the east and west end of the building on the south facade. The west elevation is similar to the south facade. The north elevation employs several entryways for delivery access. The east wall is a blank wall with limited projections suggesting the Chicago style. A large chimney extends upward along the northwest corner of the building. A large water-tower structure is located on the roof, the tank is missing.
     The building is a three-story warehouse building with an open plan. The building is sixteen bays along the south elevation and ten bays deep to the north. There are several entrances into the building, two on the south elevation, one on the west, three on the north and three on the east. The building is a combination of masonry construction and steel and wood beams with wood piers. The roof is a rolled asphalt flat roof.   The immense fenestration allows a great amount of light to fill the interior space. A photo dating from 1934 demonstrates the use of 1/1 double-hung wood windows in the sixteen bays that front Detroit Avenue. Alterations, sometime after 1994, blocked in a majority of the lower-level windows. Steel industrial windows are located throughout the window openings, based on the 1934 photo, these are replacement windows. An open interior court is located in the center of the building. The court has brick flooring and is enclosed on all four sides with an entrance to the east. The existing windows demonstrate alterations. Both steel industrial windows and wood 12/12 remain, in addition to the glass block and concrete blocked in areas.
     The 115,672-square-foot building was constructed in four phases. The westernmost portion (approximately the first four bays) measuring 70' along Detroit by 192' along West 29th, was constructed in 1910. In 1915, an additional 4 bays was constructed to the east along Detroit, spanning a depth of 114' towards Vermont Avenue. The plan for these first two phases was designed by local architect Gustave B. Bohm.  The last two phases of construction were administered by the architectural firm of Christian, Schwarzenberg and Gaede Company. Phase three of the building occurred in 1917. The change in the structure occurred in response to the construction of the nearby bridge to the north. The construction of the Detroit-Superior Bridge required the widening of Detroit Avenue in front of the Federal Knitting Mills, resulting in changes to the building. The widening of Detroit removed 34' of the existing southernmost face of the structure in effect the remaining surface of the structure fronting Detroit was refaced and an addition of 118" was constructed to the east along Detroit, sharing a common face. The last substantial phase of additions transpired in 1921, when Federal Knitting Mill enlarged the complex to 93' along Vermont Avenue with a depth of 93'.
     The firm was incorporated in 1926 and by 1928, the firm employed 650 people. Over 100,000 pieces of knitwear were produced each week. Federal Knitting Mills made sweaters, bathing suits, caps, dresses, shawls, scarves, knitted headwear, and many knitted novelties. It also exported knitted lace for Spanish shawls that were sold to tourists in Manila. The products were wholesaled to jobbers (middlemen) and also through Federal Knitting Mills' own agency in New York City, which controlled worldwide distribution. The company's customers included well-known department stores and mail-order houses, including Marshall Field, Sears Roebuck, Montgomery Ward, and Carson Pirie Scott.  The Federal Knitting Mills continued to flourish during the Great Depression and sales reached a peak of $2,782,418 in 1932. That year the company had the best record of all issues listed in the Cleveland Stock Exchange. Production records were set in 1934 and bonuses continued to be given out as late as December 1936.
     The Federal Knitting Mills thrived for twenty-seven years as a major economic force in the garment industry. The building continued to be utilized by garment companies for years after the liquidation of the Federal Knitting Mills. The Gottfried Company (Marie Dressler and Mynette dresses), a dress manufacturer occupied the building through the 1940s. The S. Weitz and Company, cloth manufacturers, occupied the building from 1940-1956; their printed sign is still visible on the building. The Barton Knitting Mills occupied the building through the 1950s-60s. From the 1950s to the 1990s, smaller and varied businesses occupied the building, including the Deltronix Corporation and the Glasier Casket Company, both of the 1960s-90s. Originally, the building opened as the Federal Knitting Mills Building, but was sold to the Seaway Company in the 1960s. Now, the building has been rehabilitated for residential use, maintaining the significant historic elements.
     Little of the original structure's exterior designed by Bohm remains, only a portion of the west wall. The entrance to the lower level of the Detroit-Superior Bridge was directly in front of the building, explaining the width of the street at this point. Streetcars utilized this entrance from 1917-1955, it has since been closed and covered.  Significant architectural features can be identified as the central courtyard, the stone accents at the parapet and the extensive use of fenestration, monitor windows and skylights. The existing conditions of the building are good. The exterior brick demonstrates the usual sign of air pollution. The existing wood and industrial steel sash windows demonstrate neglect. The skylights display deterioration while the majority of the monitor windows are in good condition, minus the overuse of tar. In general the building is of a simple design and lacks architectural details.  There’s nothing else like it in Cleveland.  The historic Federal Knitting Mills Building, now converted to state-of-the-art, one- and two-bedroom industrial-style lofts with open floor plans, high ceilings, polished concrete floors, exposed ductwork, high-quality gas kitchens, and sweeping views. Housed in an old-world exterior, these sleek, new-world lofts offer contemporary interiors with unparalleled comfort, privacy, and value.

The Shuttle Headcanons from @melliabee and I (contains spoilers!)
• You best believe Mrs. Vanderpoel got a summer house built exactly in between Stornham and Dunstanwolde, regardless of how close her daughters' estates are to each other.
• She doesn't usually stay at the summer cottage though- she spends most of her time with Rosalie at Stornham and eventually moves across the Atlantic to be with her daughters. Rueben visits much more frequently after that, sometimes even spending entire summers across the Atlantic.
• Since he's the vicar for Dunstanwolde, Penzance has the honor of officiating Dunstan and Bettina's wedding, and christening each of their children. Every time something like this happens, Dunstan is met with something along the lines of "I told you so," but after he leaves Penzance in on the verge of very proud tears.
• G. Selden is invited to Dunstan and Betty's wedding, which should be obvious, but can you imagine how excited "little willie" is to recieve a paid vacation to England! To go to Rueben Vanderpoel's Daughter's wedding as an honored guest! The boys at Ol' Shandy's are never gonna hear the end of it.
• Tommy and Jane stay close with Bettina long after the end of the book. Eventually, one of Tommy's sons marries on of the Dunstans' daughters.
• ^When one of Tommy's sons comes to him for advice on how to propose to her, Tommy immediately goes "Oh, how lovely! Have I ever told you about the time I proposed to her mother?" and his son is like "WHAT???"
• The Dunstans name one of their daughters "Robin," after the robin that James and Selden met through, because that interaction led to James and Bettina's courtship and later marriage.
• Ughtred inprints on any positive male influence on his life, especially uncle Dunstan, who sees a lot of himself in the boy, especially in terms of trying to grow into a promising member of society when your dad is just really horrible.
• When James and Bettina have kids, Ughtred is very protective over them, and all his little cousins look up to him.
feel free to add more if you come up with any!!!
