Jeremy even sent us home with a bunch of fresh tomatoes. As it turns out, Jeremy’s serves up some pretty great pub food, and Jeremy himself is somewhat of a recipe innovator and amateur chef. Jeremy’s served as a safe house after 9/11 for people who were destined to still be in the area working cleanup. Jeremy kept the place open, and in that spirit of giving back to his community, he’s also throwing a fund raiser to help fight breast cancer at his other location, out in Freeport, Long Island. It used to be located a bit closer to the bridge, but it has since moved.

Jeremy's at the South Street Seaport calls itself the last great dive bar in New York City, and if you're not sure what that means exactly, let us provide you with some clarification. They sell $8-11 beers in quart containers, fried clam strips and jalapeño poppers, and 10 wings for $10.95. There's a man who sits in the same bar seat every night, and bras hanging from the ceiling—legend has it that when Jeremy’s was struggling in the 1980s, they’d pay people $25 for their bras to drum up business. (It worked.) Come here for a massive beer with fish and chips when you can't bear to fork over $23 for a dressed-up vodka soda. After quart container beers, you'll need to proceed with caution. Jeremy spent years perfecting New England clam chowder recipes at home, spoiling his family in the process, who can now no longer eat the chowder at restaurants because the homemade version was so much better.

The secret, Jeremy says, is in using heavy cream and half & half instead of milk, and a bit of sherry. You can see that a little shot of sherry is served alongside the chowder for mixing (or drinking, like I did). Jeremy has been in the saloon game for nearly 45 years now, first opening his doors back in 1970! We also talked about how the neighborhood changed so much between then and now, and how NYC laws governing food establishments caused him to make changes or operate differently, depending on the mayor and what safety concerns they pushed in their agendas. For the past 40 years, Jeremy’s has been filled with ice-cold beers and mouthwatering appetizers that are perfect during a leisurely afternoon or a crazy, bra-hanging night out with friends.

I’d say this was probably my second favorite item from the tasting. While I was digging into this fucker, Jeremy called out for Monstro to bring us over one of the Jersey tomatoes that he uses both at home and at the bar for salads, burger toppings and also just for snacking. These were picked fresh from near his hometown in southern New Jersey (he grew up in NJ, but he is originally from England). They have a slightly thicker skin than most tomatoes, but that helps to seal in the juicy freshness and sweet qualities of the fruit (yes, tomatoes are technically fruit, not veggies). These particular tomatoes were light on seeds and that slimy goop in the center, which was great for me because I hate that garbage.

Beers, Bras and Fried Seafood

It hasn’t lost any of its charm and character, however, other than the awesome outdoor beer garden that it used to boast. The new spot has some elevated curbside seating near big windowed doors, which is cool in its own right. We first tried some of his lobster bisque, which currently is not on the menu. He does give it out to customers on occasion, but right now it is an off-menu hush-hush item.

You’ll always find eclectic crowds mingling no matter when you arrive at this South Street Seaport dive bar. One is spicy, with sliced cherry peppers included. Both have salami, ham, cheese, lettuce and a nice vinegary sandwich dressing on top. The bread is fresh, crusty Italian bread – the only thing worthy of such a sandwich. Monstro hollows out a bit of the bread’s interior so that all the fillings can fit inside the sandwich without being too massive to bite down on.

The grill, on the other hand, gives it a fired-up taste and the seafood takes on some of the grill flavors. Here's the comprehensive guide to everything Lower Manhattan, with 179 pages of restaurants, bars, local resources and more. A night out at one of these restaurants will never be boring.

The scene at Jeremy’s wasn’t this vibrant when the bar first opened in the early 1980s. Now the seaport is a lively area with residential buildings, restaurants and stores, but back then, it was downright desolate. On an unusually warm Friday afternoon in April at Jeremy’s Ale House in the South Street Seaport, customers sipped beer from quart-size Styrofoam cups while “Jessie’s Girl” blared from the jukebox and the sun streamed in through the open windows. There was a distinct vacation feel in the air. Our newsletter hand-delivers the best bits to your inbox.

It seems in all of Nancy Meyers’s films, the unspoken third star is the film’s interiors. From the Vermont house in Baby Boom to the Napa wine country villa in The Parent Trap, a Nancy Meyers movie has always had a certain aesthetic appeal. Now the real-life house in Alhambra, California, is on the market for just under $2 million. And while the rose vines and white picket fence are gone and the portico has been changed, there’s still charm for days in the sprawling 4,397-square-foot, four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home. If you're a diehard fan, you can stop at the residence located at 843 S El Molino Avenue in Pasadena, California.

Tour the Home in the Movie, Father of the Bride

Last week I featured Steve Martin’s traditional white house from Father of the Bride, so today I thought it would be fun to take a look at how it changed for the sequel, Father of the Bride Part II. It’s a private residence of course so any trips there should be respectful and discreet, making sure not to trespass on the property or disturb residents and neighbors. There’s been plenty of that in the past; according to betweennapsontheporch.com, the young couple who purchased the property shortly after the movie was made even had people ringing their doorbell and asking for a tour.

Lovely Bride

Father of the Bride is a beloved classic movie that has captured the hearts of audiences for decades. Released in 1991, this comedy film stars Steve Martin as George Banks, a father who goes through a whirlwind of emotions as he prepares for his daughter’s wedding. While the movie itself is known for its charming storyline and hilarious moments, one element that has piqued the curiosity of many viewers is the iconic house where much of the film takes place. However, it wasn't just the wedding scenes that were filmed in its spacious backyard.

The house in Father of the Bride is a stunning example of colonial-style architecture. With its beautiful white facade and traditional design, this eight-bedroom, 4,339 square foot single-family home is truly a sight to behold. The attention to detail and the charm of the house perfectly complement the story being told in the movie.

This is the location where they filmed the iconic backyard wedding scenes, according to Velvet Ropes, and in 2016 the home was sold for just under $2 million. The 4,397-square-foot Colonial-style dwelling has five bedrooms and four bathrooms and features lovely columns paired with ornate rounded glass windows. High ceilings and smooth wood flooring continue throughout the space decorated with beautiful details around the door frames and walls, as seen in pictures of the home's listing on Zillow.

When reminiscing about the classic film, fans will undoubtedly talk about the fantastic Banks family home. With the help of outlandish wedding designer Franck Eggelhoffer (played by Martin Short), they pull off a magical wedding, but not without its fair share of twists and hilarious turns. The story follows George Banks (Martin) as he deals with the ups and downs of finding out his daughter, Annie (Williams-Paisley), is about to get married, according to the film's IMDb. Hijinx and comedy ensue as George comes to terms with the fact that his daughter is no longer a little girl.

It’s no wonder that viewers have been captivated by its beauty and have been eager to locate the real-life counterpart of this cinematic gem. I think it’s time to give a toast to a movie that will go down in history as one of the best there has ever been. A view of the upstairs hallway as George talks with his son, Matty, played by Keran Culkin. While watching the movie, I was thinking how much Matty reminded me of another “child actor” in another favorite movie house movie. Let’s go inside and take a little tour of this famous movie house.

However, as it turns out, they actually used two homes to bring the movie together. The first, built in 1913, was used to film interior scenes and features as the front of the home that George pulls up to at the beginning of the movie. Father of the Bride is a 2022 American romantic comedy film directed by Gaz Alazraki and written by Matt Lopez, based on the 1949 novel of the same name by Edward Streeter. It serves as a reimagining of the titular 1950 and 1991 movies, and the sixth overall installment in the Father of the Bride franchise. The film stars Andy García, Gloria Estefan, Adria Arjona, Isabela Merced, Diego Boneta, and Chloe Fineman. It is the third filmed version of the story, after the original 1950 film and the 1991 remake.

One particularly memorable moment is when George Banks meets wedding coordinator Franck Eggelhoffer for the first time. This interaction, filled with hilarious misunderstandings and cultural differences, perfectly showcases the comedic talents of both Steve Martin and Martin Short. Fans of the "Father of the Bride" movies know how integral the Banks family home was to the plot. Not only was it the location where Annie was married, but in the second film, George sells the memorable house during a midlife crisis.

They had some pretty wild stories to tell about folks walking right up to their door, ringing the bell and asking for a tour. One of the things they said that really stuck with me was that some of what we saw in the movie was constructed just for the movie, like the white picket fence. This popular bridal salon (with locations across the United States and one in London) opts for a low-key and minimalist vibe compared to many of its Los Angeles counterparts.

However, after finding out that not only is his daughter pregnant, but he and his wife Nina (played by the legendary Diane Keaton) are also expecting, he scrambles to get the long-time family home back. And, if you’re hoping the house used for the backyard wedding scenes might be more reasonable, you’re in luck… kind of. Also off the market, Zillow estimates this equally striking family home’s worth at around the 2.5 million dollar mark. Between the assortment of expertly crafted gowns and the Beverly Hills location, you'll be living the California dream when visiting Pronovias's LA flagship boutique. From the moment you walk in you'll feel like the star of your own show, as staff members will skillfully guide you through an assortment of couture-like gowns one-on-one.

From television shows to parodies and even real-life weddings, the house has become a symbol of family, love, and celebration. Other notable scenes that were shot in the house include the emotional father-daughter moments shared between George Banks and his daughter Annie, played by Kimberly Williams-Paisley. These scenes, filled with love, laughter, and a touch of melancholy, have resonated with audiences and have solidified the house’s role as a significant setting within the film. Additionally, the house’s crucial role in the movie’s plot further adds to its fame.

• Rodeo Drive If you love all things fashion and want to shop ‘til you drop while visiting Los Angeles, then we suggest taking a stroll down Rodeo Drive. This two mile long street in Beverly Hills is filled with high end shops as seen in the iconic scene from Pretty Woman and other various films. So, if you’re in need of some retail therapy, Rodeo Drive definitely should be added to your list. •Santa Monica Bay Beaches While visiting Los Angeles you can easily spend a day lounging and getting a tan at Santa Monica Bay. The beaches on Santa Monica Bay are known for being a hot spot for surfing, since they always have killer waves.

Sofia is disgusted that her parents and Adan have been hiding it from her, but reconciles once more with her father and agrees to push through with the wedding. Adan's wealthy father Hernan and the rest of his family arrive in Miami. He and Billy disagree further on the cost and scale of the wedding; Hernan offends him by offering to pay for what Billy cannot afford. Now, 25 years later, a new family can relive the scenes that have become part of our childhood memories. Visiting the house can be a nostalgic and exciting experience, allowing you to connect with the movie on a deeper level. So, if you find yourself in Pasadena, California, be sure to swing by 843 S El Molino Avenue and experience the magic of Father of the Bride in person.

Here's Where You Can Visit The House From Father Of The Bride

If you’re a diehard fan, you can stop at the residence located at 843 S El Molino Avenue in Pasadena, California. The beautiful white facade of the house still looks just as enchanting as it did in the film, according to views from the Zillow listing. Many years ago, I read an article in a magazine where they interviewed a young couple who bought this house in real life when it became available a few years after the making of the movie.

Fans will also see the driveway where George and Annie bonded while playing basketball. Although it's not the same basketball net used in the production, there is still a hoop in the same spot. Unfortunately, the home is not currently for sale, but you can still relive your movie fantasies by visiting both locations featured in "Father of the Bride."

To Diane Keaton, who showed mothers everywhere how to show enthusiasm for a daughter’s wedding so strongly opposed by the father of the bride. Built in 1925, the house is similar in style to Pasadena house, and if we had $1.98 millon to spare we'd snatch it up in a heartbeat. This is Colonial Revival architecture at its absolute finest; the front door features a beautiful fanlight and sidelights, while the interior boasts a gorgeous formal parlor and walnut-paneled den. We never get a great shot of this wonderful grandfather clock, but it adds so much to this otherwise very neutral interior.

But that house's backyard was apparently not up to par, so they located another house in nearby Alhambra featuring a spacious basketball court to serve as the setting for the film's backyard scenes. Los Angeles, while known for its iconic Hollywood sign, California sun, and vibrant nightlife, is also becoming a popular destination to host a wedding. So, if you’re getting married in Los Angeles and want to learn more about the stylish and chic city, we’ve got you covered. After much speculation and exploration, the real-life location of the house from Father of the Bride has been found.

Produced by Plan B Entertainment, it was released on June 16, 2022, by Warner Bros. This is the same look I am going for in a room in my home that I’m hoping to one day turn into a library. You can see the vintage shelving I found for my “someday library” in THIS post. I hope to bump my fireplace out from the wall like they have done here, too. Of course, the snow is just pretend snow since this home is located at 843 S. The second house was used to shoot scenes for Annie and Bryan’s backyard wedding.

Therefore, we suggest finding accommodations for friends and family that are not only near your wedding venue, but affordable. Do your research by checking out the different hotel options and also make sure to provide accommodations and room block information on your wedding website. Los Angeles is an easy city for out-of-town guests to fly into because there are several major airports in the area.

Filled with killer beaches and hot new bars and restaurants opening up almost everyday, LA has plenty of variety when it comes to hosting a wedding. This does mean that prices are usually a bit higher when it comes to booking vendors—especially since couples in the area are choosing up to 13 vendors for their wedding. The average cost of a wedding in Los Angeles is around $33,000, which is higher than the national average of $28,000. There are plenty of ways to easily save if you’re getting married in Los Angeles.

It reminds me of a Mora clock but it doesn’t quite have the “pot belly” proportions of the Mora. It’s not really a Bornholm clock like I have HERE in my upstairs family room. It has an incredible total of 8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms and remains as charming today as it was back in the early 90s. To be fair, Annie’s outfits have come full circle and are once again considered the height of cool-girl fashion. As for our love of that fairytale family home, you’re not the only one still pining to step inside over 30 years later.

The door on this house is black, adding to the subtle look of the house. It has a patterned driveway and concrete walkway leading to double garage doors and the front door.

The white helps break things up and draws attention where you want it. It’s hard to match the rich quality of a dark stained real wood door. When dark colors are executed properly they’re dramatic and full of life. Gray house color combinations are some of the best but I particularly like them when they add some darker tones into the design.

Herringbone Grey Brick With Black Trim

FYI, we love the matte finish of the black paint use on this exterior. A good example from the picture is the choice of red clay shingles for the roof that makes the house look even more fabulous. Besides, you can also see some wooden brackets for the roof extensions in front of the windows and doors. The color of this element matches the Tuscan white tone of the stucco material very well.

If you want a gray house color scheme then consider color combinations that will last. This stunning stone home has been designed with gray mansard roofing and three cream colored dormers. Two-toned gray houses offer a sophisticated duality that plays with perception and aesthetics. By pairing light and dark shades of gray, homeowners can harness a design that’s both timeless and trendy. This design technique not only accentuates the home’s architectural features but also provides an added layer of visual intrigue. Gray provides an understated elegance that creates an almost universal appeal.

Grey House Exterior Color Schemes

As you’ll probably notice from the example pics on the page light to mid gray tends to work best as a siding color. Although we’ve seen some beautiful homes with really dark gray, for most home a lighter shade is the best choice. Some grays have warm or cool undertones and some have a bit of color. While others are solid gray, whether light, dark, or medium in tone.

Charming Blue

Potted plants surround the top porch step in colors to match the door and its wreath. This gray snout ranch home uses white bricks as an accent to create interest in an otherwise unassuming home. The design often incorporates large windows to allow natural light into the living spaces while maintaining privacy through strategic placement or tinted glass.

The colors here do not have bright colors to contrast with. Yet, the trim still serves as an accent color to the grey brick. This home gives us another great example of how to use black and grey as accent colors for a light shade. It all looks beautiful along side the wood decking, white trim, columns and railings and the red brick. Copper is not used often on the exterior of homes, so it makes your house stand out. When you add copper gutters, light fixtures, and in some cases, a copper roof to a house, it gives it touches of class.

This delightful grey house with black trim showcases a welcoming front porch that exudes warmth and charm. The combination of rustic and modern design elements creates an inviting and timeless exterior that is both stylish and functional. By carefully considering factors such as shade, undertone, and accent colors, homeowners can create stunning and cohesive grey house exteriors that stand the test of time. The sleek, monochromatic color scheme creates a modern look that is both stylish and functional. This color scheme creates a sleek and sophisticated look that can be easily achieved by combining different shades of grey, such as light and dark greys or warm and cool greys.

Those are the 17 options of catchy stucco and trim color combinations that we can share with you. The choices are various so that you can pick one for your next project. The picture example above shows everything that we just said. The design is also fabulous because the designer chose a muted grey tone for the window and door color. The multi-tone roof also has grey color domination that makes it suitable for the exterior design overall.

Popular gray paint colors range from light to medium and dark, depending on your home style and the mood you want to convey. A light gray like Sherwin-Williams French Gray has a balance of cool and warm tones that makes it a timeless choice. Try a medium gray like Benjamin Moore Kendall Charcoal, or a darker shade such as Sherwin-Williams Peppercorn for a more dramatic look. This is an ideal example of why choosing the right grey is so important.

Pale Grey House With Black Metal Accents

A Craftsman home typically has columns, exposed rafters, and covered porches. This type of house is a perfect combination of grey siding, white trim, and stone. This home does not include any siding, and instead settles for a flat, slightly textured appearance painted in a concrete gray. While the gray paint colors are offset by the white trim, they also give the decorative stone at the base a chance to shine. We’ve returned to the classic wood incorporation, but this time without any dark grey color.

Grey house with black trim and a beautifully landscaped garden

The white entryway stands out as a stark contrast to the dark gray. There is even a touch of wood above the windows and the doors that you might overlook. This wood adds to the style of the house without taking away from the modern feel. It also has gray stone columns to help break up the front of the house. The white trim, white window frames, and white columns are a great contrast to the gray. All of these accents pull your attention to the teal door, which gives the house a pop of color.

Shades of Gray on a Stucco Contemporary

Incorporating stone with other materials like vinyl can elevate design aesthetics, striking a balance between rustic charm and modern simplicity. Vinyl, with its wide array of colors and finishes, can seamlessly blend with stone textures. Utilizing a dual shade approach with grays can craft shadows, highlight certain features, and introduce a depth that a singular tone might not achieve. The darker shade can act as the anchor, grounding the structure, while the lighter shade can make spaces look expansive and welcoming. This interplay of light and dark is particularly effective in emphasizing architectural nooks, trims, and cornices, making them pop in an understated elegance.

Gray Painted House Exterior

The outdoor dining area in the French country house above is an excellent example. The interesting point is that the type of trim used is from a metal material that gets bronze color in the design. That is why the final result does look not only cozy and contrast but also elegant too. The picture above contains all the details we can consider as examples.

Concrete Vs Clay Tile Roof

Another thing that we pay more attention to this design is the fact that the exterior combines stucco and wall siding materials, and it looks amazing. People often use a design combination like this for two-story houses. The upper half of this structure sticks to light grey and deep granite hues, giving a familiar contrast. However, the lower half steps away from usualness; it combines brown with black, grey, and off-white.

A Welcoming View with Wood Trim and Red Stucco

Red is another classic option for stucco color that you can use to create an extraordinary exterior. For an easy choice that will still give you awe, white is the trim tone that you must choose. The visual effect that it provides is more or less the same as the one done to the brown stucco, balancing.

The Definition of a Grey Home

There are numerous shades of gray that blend with just about any accent, landscaping, design, or style. There’s something captivating about the rich texture of stone juxtaposed with the sleek elegance of a gray and black palette. Stonework not only introduces a tactile element to the exteriors but also instills a sense of agelessness, echoing stories of old while keeping in step with modern design ethos.

Again, we see the presence of blue-gray in the form of the painted garage door. If you’re more for a darker design, dark gray exterior paint is still a very good option to choose. In this example, you see that white trim has been chosen again, preventing the house from coming off as too dark while keeping those clean lines we love so much. Gray (grey), like white, black, and beige, is a neutral color.

The main color you see here is the light gray siding, used both horizontally and vertically as paneling. This shade of gray is great for keeping your house light, bright, and approachable. The dark gray complement comes in as the shingled roof color, but still plays an undeniable role in the appearance and color palette of this beautiful home.

That’s what makes gray siding with a white door such a nice color combination for your home on. Pairing the gray with bright white trim adds personality, while still keeping a classic and overall neutral appearance. Gray siding looks fantastic when paired with masonry veneers like real stone, cultured stone or brick. When selecting your stone you have the choice of either adding contrast or a more harmonious color scheme. Notice how the gray stone has subtle brown tones that accent the real wood doors and small specs of black to match the window frames and accent roof. The best gray house color schemes are really all about the surrounding colors and materials.

The black balcony rails provide a sleek and contemporary touch, while also serving as safety features for those enjoying outdoor spaces on upper floors. Sherwin Williams’ Gray Area is a warm, inviting greige that works beautifully on the brick in the rendering shown above. Our designers used Cheating Heart by Benjamin Moore siding to bring depth and some moodiness.

Including an exciting burst of color by using Benjamin Moore’s Wasabi on the front door results in a dramatic, creative aesthetic. We can’t talk about the best modern gray house exterior color schemes without mentioning the dynamic duo that is Benjamin Moore’s Chelsea Gray and Seapearl. A sophisticated medium gray, Chelsea Gray brings depth to the home shown above. Our designers recommended Benjamin Moore’s Seapearl for the stone, trim, eaves, and soffit.

It’s a great question we get asked all the time and below we’re gonna answer it. The stone is a light gray speckled with some white and pairs well with the white garage and white trim. The trim around the windows and house is a beige gray color which is also subtle and subdued.

The Civic Opera Company opened on November 13, 1922 with a stunning performance of Aïda. This was a traditional opera to start with and was obviously the choice of Insull and not Mary Garden, who was the champion of French opera and had a more modern taste in music. Typical of what she would have chosen would have been Pelléas et Mélisande, a role Debussy had written for her. This is almost the opposite of Insull's taste in opera, he preferred older pieces in Italian, such as works by Verdi, Puccini, and Rossini. This tension was resolved by having an almost equal number of Italian and French operas a year, contrary to practice at virtually any other opera house outside France, with other languages wildly under represented.

This opera house was the inspiration for the one featured in Orson Welles's film, Citizen Kane. In order for his aspiring opera singer wife to perform, Charles Foster Kane builds an opera house for her, but the quality of her singing reveals her ineptitude. The urban legend is that Samuel Insull built this opera house for his wife, who was not hired by New York's Metropolitan Opera.

Birdie Bohan and Edith Ulrich were the pianists, Ernest De Soto, the violinist, and Mr. Parsons played the drums. Samuel Insull envisioned and hired the design team for building a new opera house to serve as the home for the Chicago Civic Opera, as the company was called. Subsequently, he moved to Chicago and became president of Chicago Edison (Commonwealth Edison). Built in 1929 by business magnate Samuel Insull, the art deco architecture and gold-covered interior design of the Civic Opera House is anything but subtle—an venue for the dramatic narratives that unfold on its stage.

What is especially striking this second time around is the edgy, pop-infused score of Swedish composer Mikael Karlsson with Swedish indie-rock singer Anna von Hausswolf back to providing her alluring, other-worldly vocals, moving amid the action as she sings. The music is performed by an onstage ensemble, including four string players from the Lyric Opera Orchestra. To enhance the notion of a summer party, several strings of white lights are draped above the front of the stage, which is bathed in green light, and the pleasant recorded sounds of singing birds greet audiences as they entered the theater.

Behind the Scenes

Extra details of foot and mounted police have been assigned to enforce the orders and they anticipate a difficult task, on opening night at least. The intimate tone of the house, considering the number of seats, is extraordinary. This effect has been attained largely through the incessant blendings of old rose and gold in Jules Guerin’s scheme of decoration. There are no abrupt transitions and no straining for the grandiose. 1,682 Seats on Main Floor.There are 39 rows—or a total of 1,682 seats—on the main floor.

The original plan was that the Civic Opera would retire these bonds over the next eighty years with rents from a 28-story office tower above the theatre. Thus they would completely own the building and rentals from the office space would subsidize the Civic Opera Company. The Civic Opera House, also called Lyric Opera House is an opera house located at 20 North Wacker Drive in Chicago. The Civic's main performance space, named for Ardis Krainik, seats 3,563, making it the second-largest opera auditorium in North America, after the Metropolitan Opera House. I am told that the orchestra pit, as spacious as those of the Paris Opéra, Milan’s La Scala, and other famous European opera houses, and like them sunk from the view of the public, is floored and backed with hard wood.

The future of Chicago’s opera company was in the air again, but Samuel Insull was waiting in the wings. In yet another reorganization, the newly-formed Civic Opera Association elected the utilities magnate as its president, General Charles Dawes and Richard Crane Jr. as vice presidents, Charles Hutchinson as treasurer, and Stanley Field as secretary. With the support of Harold McCormick, president of the Chicago Opera Company, Cleofante assumed control of the orchestra as well as the opera company—and was the business manager to boot.

The south half of the block was bought by Victor Lawrence with the idea of building an office and plant for the Daily News, but the plans were changed and the northeast corner of Canal and Madison has since been considered for the newspaper. In fact, the contract is reported made, signed and delivered; and formal statement on the subject only awaits release. The Civic Opera House is a 3,563 seat venue, making it the second-largest opera auditorium in North America. It was originally built for the Chicago Civic Opera, but today is the permanent home of the Lyric Opera of Chicago. Its excellent design allows for perfect sightlines from every seat and top-class acoustics.

You know what the main floor seats at the extreme right and left of the stage of a large opera house usually are. They are ideal pockets in which to meditate, but as points of view they are negligible. The view obtained from such seats in the Civic Opera house is startling in its completeness and facility and must represent extraordinarily subtle handling of perspectives. The ideal result has been obtained without ruinous sacrifice of space. The seating capacity of the opera house will be a bit more than the 3,600 of the present Auditorium.

National companies on tour introduced both grand and light opera performances. I found my seat on the sixth floor of the massive auditorium and noticed the ceiling, covered in beautiful old designs in gold and velvet. Since I did know opera performers don't use microphones or speakers, I had my doubts about whether I'd be able to hear the singing from where I sat. So I signed up for the Lyric Backstage Tour and what I learned about the opera house surprised me.

In 1954, Lyric Theater of Chicago opened with Bellini’s Norma, and Maria Callas made her American debut. After some disagreements, Lawrence and Nicola left the next year and founded the Dallas Opera, but Carol stayed, renaming the company one final time to Lyric Opera of Chicago. In the first few years there were some minor disagreements that made the papers, but trouble was brewing and it came to a head in 1913 when Andreas Dippel, general manager and artistic director, quit. Despite much protestation from Andreas and from Cleofante Campanini, the general music director, that everything was fine, the consensus was that the two got in a feud.

When architects Graham, Anderson, Probst & White built the Civic Opera House in the late 1920s, they included a smaller theater behind it. The 878-seat Civic Theater was originally home to classic plays, then later a studio for ABC in the 1940s. It returned to theater and dance in the 60s, but struggled off-and-on until 1993, when it was engulfed by the Civic Opera. The space allowed the Civic Opera to expand the backstage, create a rehearsal hall, dressing rooms, and scenery storage space. A space for car parking has been reserved in Wacker drive between Washington and Randolph streets, the vehicles so aligned as to permit traffic either way in Wacker. Buses will transfer Illinois Central riders fron the Randolph street terminal to the opera house.

He hired Adler and Sullivan to build an amazing, acoustically perfect theater, even though the city had no company of its own and had to rely on traveling productions to get its fix. Cliffird Noonan, senior vice president of Graham, Anderson, Probst & White, the prolific architectural firm which designed many of Chicago’s downtown buildings. It seats a total of 3,600 persons; 1,700 on the main floor, 850 each In balcony and gallery, and the remainder in the thirty-six boxes. THE NEW GOLDEN HORSESHOE blazed with jewels and a shimmering rainbow of color last Monday night as the Chicago Civic Opera presented the spectacle of its house warming party.

She made her American debut at the Civic Opera House during the Lyric Opera’s first season in 1954. Because of her notoriety, the company’s first season was a success. At the time, she was being sued by her alleged agent but managed to avoid getting served. That is, until the process server snuck backstage after her performance of Madame Butterfly, catching her off-guard. A reporter snapped a photo of her furious, still in her kimono costume. The photo encouraged rumors she was a high-maintenance diva, hurting her reputation so badly she vowed never to return to Chicago.
