Schiller Park groups relish donations By GARY SEMAN JR. ThisWeek Community Newspapers Both the Schiller Park Arboretum Fund and Huntington Garden Endowment, two groups responsible for beautifying Schiller Park, are rejoicing after receiving generous financial commitments in recent weeks. The Columbus Recreation and Parks Department’s Community Recreation Council, Schiller Chapter, has agreed to match $3,000 in community dona-
tions toward the treatment of ash trees in the park, said Lindy Michael, chair of the arboretum fund. She said the donations have been pouring in since late November, when the group announced a $5,000 goal toward the purchase and administration of an insecticide on roughly 30 trees in the park. The fund, which has been in existence in some form since the late 1970s, had treated 11 trees in 2010. “It’s amazing the response we have gotten,” Michael said.
The ash trees soon will be wrapped in yellow ribbons so residents can see how common they are in the park, she said. While the group is more than halfway to reaching its $5,000 goal, Michael said other donations are encouraged to help offset the cost of trimming, fertilizing and new planting. Also, current treatments last two years and have to be reapplied, she said. Meanwhile, the Huntington Garden Endowment received an individual con-
tribution of $5,000 and another $200 in memorial gifts donated in the memory of Fred Holdridge, a longtime German Village advocate who died Dec. 23. Bert Stevens, chair of the endowment, said the balance is now up to $115,000. The goal is to have the account earning $5,000 a year in interest, which can sustain the annual cost of the maintenance of garden, a vibrant patch of turf on the west side of the park in front of the Schiller statue.
“This is good news,” she said of the recent donations. “My thinking is I am so blessed to live in a community which treasures the park and the legacy we’re trying to ensure going forward.” But Stevens encourages people to donate resources in addition to those earmarked for the endowment. “I want to continue to build the endowment until we know it’s self-sustaining,” she said. “But there are always See DONATIONS, page A2
GVS plans GVS TURNS 51 on paying tribute to Holdridge and Burns
Resident hopes series will strike a chord with music lovers

The German Village Society will look to honor the memories of Fred Holdridge and Howard Burns with some type of lasting monument in their name. Brian Santin, president of the GVS board of trustees, is putting together a committee to explore the best way to celebrate the late couple. Two weeks ago, the community paid its last respects to Holdridge, who died Dec. 23 at the age of 86. Burns died in 2001. The two were often called the “popes of the neighborhood,” a pair of irrepressible socialites who were deeply devoted to each other and the community. The Neighborhood Room at the Meeting Haus was dedicated in their honor. Also, the society has the Fred and Howard Award, given annually to those who best promote German Village to a local and international audience. Jerry Glick, a former society board member who is active in the community, had a few ideas, such as an impressive kiosk or welcome sign at the South Third Street entrance or an endowment scholarship for interns to study German Village history or architecture. He also suggested an outreach program to teach about preservation and community involvement to students. It will not be the first time the society and community mobilized to pay tribute to a community advocate. Brent Warner, who died November 2007, had a hall at the Meeting Haus dedicated in his honor. He left the society $225,000, said Katharine Moore, former executive director of the GVS. Warner was the volunteer operations director for Oktoberfest and the Haus und Garten Tour and he quietly funded and worked on maintaining the Meeting Haus. He served as a German Village Commission member and was a “passionate preservationist,” Moore said. “A small committee tried to balance the
Schiller Park will be one of three destinations for a summer concert series. German Village resident Aaron Leventhal plans to produce the free series of shows, called Jammin’ in the Park, as a way to raise money for several nonprofit organizations, including the German Village Society, Directions for Youth, the Short North Business Association and the Fort Hayes Metropolitan Education Center. “Basically, this is a pilot project,” he said. “Our goal is to roll out 10 to 12 of them for the bicentennial festival (in 2012).” The entertainment will feature a gospel concert held in May at Fort Hayes Career Center, a pop rock show in June at Schiller Park and a jazz and electric bluegrass performance in July at Goodale Park. All shows, to take place from noon to 7 p.m., will feature at least three bands. Specific dates have not been set. “I wanted to do something that’s really exciting and new for the community,” Leventhal said. Leventhal is the founder of High Street Magazine, which was recently sold to Outlook Media Inc. He has maintained the High Street Neighborhood Fund, a permanent endowment that has awarded more than $80,000 in grants since it was founded in 2001. Most of the recipients have been along the High Street corridor. A portion of advertising and sponsorship dollars from the shows goes directly into the fund, part of the Aaron Leventhal Foundation administered through the Columbus Jewish Foundation. Money from the fund has gone toward children’s programming at the Columbus Recreation and Parks Department. Terri Leist, assistant director of recreation and parks, said she likes the sound of Jammin’ in the Park. “The concept is always good: Any time you can bring any kind of entertainment, a diversity of entertainment, for our citizens is a good thing,” she said. “In addition to that, if you raise funds to help others in the community, especially nonprofits, that’s just icing on the cake.” Leventhal, a travel writer, is a 30-year resident

Detroit pastor to speak at breakfast honoring Rev. King Several Columbus events scheduled to commemorate birthday of famous civil-rights leader By GARY SEMAN JR.

Perkins will deliver the keynote address at the 26th annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Breakfast, slated for 7:30 a.m. Monday, Jan. 17, at the Greater Columbus Convention Center, 400 N. High St. Perkins, pastor of the Greater Christ Baptist Church in Detroit, describes his speech as “positive and uplifting,” but
also challenging to the audience. “The reason we need to continue to celebrate his life and legacy is because it brings us back to face the fact that, as a nation, we are not where we need to be and should be,” Perkins said. Doors open at 7 a.m. Tickets are $35 and must be purchased in advance by calling (614) 252-0868.

Bible’s account of Joseph and his brothers in Genesis 37:5: “Joseph dreamed a dream and he told it to his brethren, and they hated him yet the more.” Rev. James C. “The point is that, Perkins for whatever the reason, dreamers build an atmosphere of hate,” Perkins said.

Perkins, 59, graduated from high school in 1968 and went to college four months after King was assassinated. He said he always planned to go into the ministry but felt motivated by King’s words and actions. “It did inspire me,” Perkins said. “I felt a sense of responsibility to try and challenge others to perpetuate the dreams that he talked about.” Perkins will be preceded by several other speakers, including Columbus
Mayor Michael B. Coleman. “Dr. King said, ‘Everybody can be great because anybody can serve.’ To keep Dr. King’s dream alive, we must rise to meet the needs of our community,” Coleman said in a prepared statement. “We remember how Dr. King inspired people to give what they could of their time and talent. He provided opportunities for them to learn and grow. See BREAKFAST, page A2

VILLAGE NOTEBOOK with every book one could possibly want. Historically speaking, the business hasn’t been there forever, but a perk of the place is that it feels like it has. Everything about the Book Loft is a must-see, and when it comes to knowing how to take care of its neighbors and clientele, the Book Loft has it down. That quality, among so many others, will keep the Book Loft and German Village’s other local businesses vibrant. They pay attention to their clientele. They stand out from the crowd and they champion products they trust. It is no wonder that tour buses and throngs of visitors outside their shops and restaurants no longer surprise German Village residents. If the Book Loft is just one jewel in the village’s crown, local businesses and the German Village Business Community have what it takes for years of future success. And if they can keep making it snow every year for Village Lights, that will help, too.
There may be no better place anywhere (and I mean that — anywhere) to do all of that than the Book Loft. In an age when people are reading books online or on hand-held computers, stores like the Book Loft continue to amaze me with their variety, their determination and their grit. Now I have no doubt that Kindles are awesome. I really do feel confident in saying that. But I am just as confident that I have no desire for one. Ever. Period. I like books. I like how they feel and how they smell. I like carrying one around — not that I’d ever want to carry 10 around on a vacation and I suppose that’s where a Kindle comes in handy — but I’m all about paper. As “green” as that isn’t, I’m OK with it. I’m green in enough other ways to make up for it. But I feel the pressure. I feel it when people read on devices other than books and when I hear of libraries closing. Now that I’m a mom, I can’t believe how many computerized reading systems Jody Graichen is director of Histhere are for kids. I know progress toric Preservation Programs for is good and just because it’s not the German Village Society. for me doesn’t mean it is not for everyone.

Friends of the Ravines, a Columbus-based preservation and resource group, is sponsoring an art contest open to all students in Columbus City Schools.

Student artists are eligible to win gift certificates from local merchants and schools associated with the winning entries will receive $100. Winning entries will be featured in an exhibition at the Northwood ARTSpace, 2231 N. High St., during March and April. An award ceremony will be held at the Northwood ARTSpace on April 1.

cars that traveled along the brick streets of Columbus. Columbus had grown a lot since the veterans came to town in 1888. The opening of the Hocking Valley’s coal, lumber and iron resources after the Civil War led to the rise of several major industries in a city that had once been mostly a commercial and governmental center. By 1910, Columbus was a city of more than 180,000 people and, among other things, was the “Buggy Capital of the World.” We are looking at the commercial heart of this growing city. But it is also a place where many people still live. Columbus, like most cities, has a few skyscrapers. But most of the commercial buildings in the city are still four and five stories tall. Built in an era before elevators, they reflect the simple fact that most people will not walk up more than a few flights of stairs to their homes or places of business. Many of these buildings have metal fire escapes attached to their fronts and sides. While the buildings look substantial, most of their interiors are made of wood and the threat of fire is still quite real in a city where gas lights are as common as electric bulbs. Along the sidewalk to the right can be seen what appear to be a number of large stone blocks along the curb. These are steps to provide more easy access to one’s carriage. While automobiles are becoming a more common sight, many people still rely on horsedrawn carriages as well as the streetcar system to make their way around town. The shops and stores along High Street provide the widest variety of goods and services to the people who live and work nearby. Most of these merchants have placed large signs on their stores and projecting from them advertising their services. They range from Murnan’s taxi service and “sports parlor” on the left to the more elegant Goodman Jewelers on the right. In the distance on the right, at the corner of Town and High streets, can be seen the distinctive tower of the F. & R. Lazarus department store. There are other distinctive elements of this city of a century ago. Watches were a luxury many people could not afford; the timepieces were worn only on special occasions. To help keep track of the time, large clocks like the one at the right of the picture stood at many major intersections. To meet the need for information, some of the city’s several newspapers were sold by newsboys (and occasionally newsgirls) like the ones we see to the left of the picture. Most of the people we see in the picture seem reasonably well-dressed in suits and ties for the men and fashionable dresses for the ladies. By the standards of our time, they are indeed well-dressed and — in mostly wool clothing — probably a bit uncomfortable. But by the standards of their day, this was just the common attire of day-to-day life. This was a world that had changed a lot during the lives of the people we see here. But for the most part, these people were accustomed to change and had learned to live with it. And perhaps that is just as well, since a lot more change was not all that far away.

The Beat Arts, eats and fun in central Ohio
FAB 5 By Jim Fischer

1 One day, a presently-young
film composer/pianist will perform a concert paying tribute to Dave Grusin, the Academy Award-winning film composer who, this weekend, pays tribute to film composer Henry Mancini in concerts with the Columbus Jazz Orchestra. Or at least if there’s any justice, one will. Point being, Grusin’s career is heavily influenced by the great Mancini, so it would be appropriate to carry on the tradition. The CJO program is “A Night at the Movies,” and features Mancini tunes like The Pink Panther Theme and Baby Elephant Walk alongside other classic film repertoire, including Somewhere Over the Rainbow and As Time Goes By.
Dave Grusin
A jazz pianist (and record label exec — he’s the “G” in contemporary jazz giant GRP Records) as well as composer, Grusin’s film scores include Heaven Can Wait, On Golden Pond and Tootsie. Tickets for the Jan. 14-15 concerts at the Southern Theatre are $41-$49. Call (614) 294-5200.
STOMP is still cool. And hot, evidenced by the continuing presence of a North American Company, a permanent London Company and a European tour, all in addition to its 14-year continuous run in New York City. The brooms, plungers, trash cans and lighters are all back, but the troupe is always on the lookout for new “instruments” — this latest tour includes tractor tire inner tubes and paint cans.

Scotland-born David Francey has made his home in the Toronto area since his family moved there when he was a youngster. His upbringing in a working-class neighborhood imbues his songwriting with a poetic sense of the day-to-day. His latest work is a collaboration with Mike Ford of Moxy Früvous, inspired by their two-week journey aboard a 750foot bulk carrier on the St. Lawrence Seaway. Amelia Curran is a Maritimes native and resident for whom songwriting is but one of her pursuits — she is also a playwright and actress. Her songwriting hardly suffers from her varied interests — check her latest, Hunter, Hunter, for evidence of this. The two will perform Friday, Jan. 14, at the Columbus Performing Arts Center.

In addition to cast members straight from the NYC production, 19 local actors will be in on the fun.

You will feel like you are attending the most outrageous wedding you have ever been to in your life! TB:Will there be dancing? TL:Yes, plenty, so wear comfy shoes. TB: How “interactive” should I plan to be? TL: You should be as interactive as you are comfortable with without being inappropriate.

TL: Yes, we have had overzealous guests get a bit too personal with some of the actors. Common sense is encouraged. You are not allowed to touch the Nun or the Stripper!

Scampering waiters and above-average food at new Poblano’s MENU Except for the hardest-working and quickest-moving wait staff in town — servers literally, stunningly and unfailingly jog across its wide-open and winding-around spaces — Poblano’s is nothing you haven’t seen before. That said, this bright and tidy newish Mexican restaurant’s food was consistently a cut above the norm. Occupying a rambling, double-decker edifice spread out over several rooms, Poblano’s is a big and splashy establishment. Kind of fun in a kitschy and touristy way, its brash color scheme alternates from one tropically tinted wall to the next. So as your head whirls as you try to follow that kinetic wait staff moving to the beat of relentlessly uptempo cumbia music, your eyes will rush past tones like tan-
by G.A. Benton gerine orange, avocado green, mango yellow and chili pepper red. After the arrival of fresh and above-average chips and salsa, you’re probably going to want some of the slightly orange-flavored house margaritas. I recommend the worth-it upcharge for a lasts-forever (and potent!) half pitcher of “Poblano’s” Margaritas ($17) made with Hornitos tequila and Cointreau. Appetizer-wise, though the homey, oregano-flecked and salty chicken and tortilla soups were both pleasant enough (each $2.50), my favorite starter was the extra-large and super-valued

Whitefish Ceviche ($6.50). I liked how its abundant, creamy and unblemished avocado chunks calmed down the assertive yet enticing fresh lime juice mixture
(with diced tomato and onion) in which the plentiful chopped raw fish was “cooked.” From the “House Specialties” entrees, El Amigo ($15) will definitely live up to its name and be your friend — if, like me, you’re a big eater. A virtual Mexican smorgasbord on a single plate, it was spilling over with nicely seared shrimp plus rice and beans (they grace most every meal and yes, they’re better than most), crisply grilled slices of thin beef (carne aside) and a boneless, skinless chicken breast. Both terrestrial proteins tasted great beneath their layers of rich melted Mexican cheese and zesty, greasy chorizo (but what wouldn’t?) Real Mexican chiles rellenos have an eggier batter than you generally get in America. Since I got something approximating that at Poblano’s, I’d rate theirs

($10.50) on the higher side. I mixed and matched a chicken (stewy) with a beef (hamburger vastly improved by being cooked with onion, carrot and potato) to fine effect. Though I doubt it was completely made from scratch, the mole sauce on my Enchiladas Poblanos ($9.50) was thicker, less sweet, richer and more complex (tasting of roasted chilies with a hint of cinnamon) than average.
It was slathered over a trio of tortillas wrapped around chicken stewed with rajas (roasted poblano pepper strips). Nice. Also quite nice was a massive platter of Chile Verde ($11). That one featured huge chunks of tender, stewy pork shoulder enlivened by a piquant tomatillo salsa. I’m a sucker for Pastel de Tres Leches, and Poblano’s version ($4.50) did not disappoint. Soaked in sweetened condensed milk, slightly perfumey and elaborately decorated with caramel icing piped into rococo decorations, it was a piece of cake that tasted as good as it looked. To read G.A.

Powell pizzeria serves up classic New York-style pies After Brooklyn Pizza opened on New Year’s Day, the New Yorkers started filing in. One guy was from Brooklyn, another from Staten Island. Long Island was represented, as was Albany. Owner Anthony La Cerva didn’t know there were so many Empire State transplants living in central Ohio. “There’s a lot of pressure on me,” he said. But it seems he has a hot, cheesedripping commodity – a New York-style pizza, complete with a crispy, foldable crust, 100-percent mozzarella and a house-mixed sauce. “The only thing that’s missing is the water,” he said. La Cerva’s goal was to create a true pizzeria, similar to the ones his father owned in the New York metropolitan area. “When I was a kid, I was stuck at a table folding pizza boxes,” he said. Thin-crust pizzas, cut into triangles no less, appeared to be an anomaly in central Ohio. Rarer still were by-theslice options. “Maybe the pizza places (in town) don’t think they make enough money on it,” he said. “I’m stumped. In New York, they’re all over the place.” Brooklyn Pizza, a carryout at 30 Grace Drive, has taken over the former Joshua’s Pizza in a strip center just north

of the restaurant-laden intersection at Liberty and Olentangy streets. La Cerva said he’s somewhat concerned about the lack of foot traffic in his strip center but is confident his product is singular enough to draw people from all over the region. “I want to be the exclusive,” he said. “Everybody’s going to have to come over here.” Pies come in 14 and 16 inches, plus a 16-by-16 Sicilian alternative. Toppings include the traditional to more designer choices, such as roasted red peppers, sun-dried tomatoes. A 16-inch

Liberty St. She admits that most customers haven’t even heard of it. “But once they taste it, they love it,” said Starling, who ran the Sunbury Grill for three years. It has myriad uses – for example, complementing omelets – or is enjoyable as a side, she said. Starling’s customers can get a GLT – a goetta, lettuce and tomato sandwich. She also has a parade of homemade dishes, including buttermilk biscuits and gravy, soups, chili, pancakes and such. Her potatoes are fresh-cut and her burgers are hand-patted. Prices range from $3 for a la carte items to $7.99 for meals. “I love to cook. I like to cook anything,” she said. “I’m not much of a baker. I love to cook comfort food that fills people up.” Jodi’s Home Cooking is open for breakfast and lunch Tuesday through Sunday, closed Monday. For more information, call 614-785-0474.
