hether you’re a junkie for blockbusters or an admirer of the less familiar, change-of-pace film, this summer’s crop of movies aims to please all tastes. While barbeques and days at the pool can prove taxing, it’s all a matter of going the extra mile to seek out the seasonal gems.

MetroParks kicks off $2.5 million fundraiser for Ford Nature Center BY SAMUEL DICKEY SPECIAL TO THE METRO MONTHLY

ill Creek Park’s Ford Nature Center is about to undergo a major renovation and restoration. One June 27, Mill Creek MetroParks hosted the “Blues, Brews and BBQ” fundraiser. The kick off event, sponsored by Youngstown Propane and Covelli Enterprises, featured craft beer tastings, barbeque, blues music played by the River Saints, tours of the building and an early glimpse of plans for the facility. The event served as a kickoff for a fundraising campaign directed at foundations and individual donors. The goal is to raise between $2.5 and $2.75 million for the project. Linda Kostka, MillCreek Metro Parks development and marketing director, stresses that the campaign is in its very early stages and that the final architectural drawings are still being tweaked. She

notes that the Center is an anchor for the surrounding Idora neighborhood. The Center was designed by Charles F. Owsley and built in 1912 as a home for Charles S. Robinson, a former Mill Creek Park commissioner. Owsley was also the designer or architect of a number of other fashionable houses built in Youngstown in that period as well as such notable buildings as the Mahoning County Court House, the Reuben McMillan Library, St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, Youngstown City Hall, and a number of former area schools such as South High School, Adams School and Monroe School. The Robinson house was later sold to Judge John W. Ford. In 1968, his children donated the stone mansion to the park and it opened in 1972 as the headquarters for the park’s nature education programs. Architect Frank Rulli of Faniro Architects, said that MetroParks has maintained

the Ford Nature Center well and that only “cosmetic repair” is necessary; the HVAC and electric systems need to be updated. He adds that the Center is a “tremendous asset that not everyone is aware of,” and that a key goal of the renovation is to stimulate awareness of the Center and its programs and to make it more attractive to an even larger audience. Rulli adds that many of the people who know and love the Ford Nature Center first become acquainted with it through school field trips. However, even though it is an ideal destination for the area’s youngest nature lovers, it has much to offer the rest of us.

Rulli expresses palpable excitement about this latest venture. After having been involved with the renovation of the Pollock House at Youngstown State University, he has taken particular interest in adaptive reuse and historical preservation. MillCreek MetroParks Planning Director Steve Avery emphasizes that the park board is committed to the Center’s current location. The renovation is part of a schematic planning process, not just for the structure of the Ford Nature Center but for the site itself. He adds that a strategically multi-faceted plan will examine not only the structure but the site, looking at infrastructure and roads. The schematic process will see what the needs and desires are for the present and the future. Avery said the goal is to provide the public with better nature education.

MVHS honors Metro Publisher with Directors’ Award of Achievement

he Historic Preservation Committee of the Mahoning Valley Historical Society’s Board of Directors is announcing the winners of its 2014 Historic Preservation Awards. These awards honor those in Mahoning and Trumbull counties who take an active role in preserving historic buildings, sites, and districts. The categories and winners are as follows: Commercial Revitalization Award: Erie Terminal – The Erie Terminal Building was built in 1923 as a passenger depot and office building for the Erie Terminal Railroad/Erie-Lackawanna Railway. This 55,000 square foot building has been transformed into a mixed-use project that revitalizes a significant landmark in Youngstown. Work on the ground floor removed newer partitions in the original passenger waiting room to restore its original open proportion; and surviving plaster walls and ceilings, originally-exposed brick wall detailing, terrazzo floors, wood trim, plaster cornices, and original “schoolhouse” light fixtures were retained. The upper floors were converted into a series of one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, flanking the original corridor location using sustainable design practices and employing energy efficient features. Property owner: NYO Property Group. Project designer: City Architecture. Community Revitalization Award: C.S. Lewis Institute at Trinity United Methodist Church – In 2013 the newly formed

Northeast Ohio C.S. Lewis Institute Fellows Program became the Trinity United Methodist Church’s newest tenant. The alley entrance on the east side was rehabilitated to become the Fellows’ main entrance. A protective glass canopy was added above the entrance to make minimal impact on the historic character of the building’s exterior and adjacent windows. Inside, three community rooms surrounding the ground floor courtyard were renovated to meet the students’ educational needs by installing new carpet tiles, furniture, technology upgrades, and a fresh coat of paint. The remaining fourth floor walls were re-configured to meet the needs of the tenant. The renovations funded by the Northeast Ohio C.S. Lewis Institute have already brought new life to an underutilized portion of this historic Youngstown landmark leading more people downtown. This investment has helped secure the future of the Trinity United Methodist Church. Property owner: Northeast Ohio C.S. Lewis Institute, a tenant of Trinity United Methodist Church. Project designer: Balog Steines Hendricks &

American Legion Post, the building is rich with historic fabric and detail that remain to this day. The program called for the building to house the permanent home of the School of Graduate Studies and Research as well as renovating the building in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior Standards for Rehabilitation of Historic Structures As the main level required an expansion of the building to satisfy the program, a “porch” was added to accommodate the increased need for space. The remainder of the renovations involved restoration and replication of historic elements such as plaster moldings, glazed tile flooring and walls, hardwood flooring, and decorative millwork. All new interior additions were executed in a contemporary motif in keeping with the Standards involving the “easily discernible and recognizable” precepts.

MVHS Directors’ Award of Achievement: Austin Log Cabin & Austintown Historical Society – During demolition on a vacant

asked, “How can we improve?” H. William Lawson, executive director of the Mahoning Valley Historical Center, suggests that one possibility might involve changes in the landscape. He suggests that the Old Furnace Road site is a great location that “might be made more visible from the road,” referring to the balance between parkland and the exhibits inside the building faithful to the original style. Lawson points out the architectural charm of the building, the Georgian Revival style of its entrance. A back entrance leads to a central staircase and hall. At one time, the house boasted formal gardens and a tennis court on a plateau. Naturalist and outdoor education manager Ray Novotny concurs, suggesting that the Center is “tucked away” and might be landscaped to give it greater prominence. He describes the building as “solid structurally” and “very well built.” Novotny adds that there are some interior issues such as old plaster that are not unusual for a building of the Center’s age. The appeal of the Nature Center is its Habitat Room depicting plants and animals of four local habitats (forest/woods, field, pond, backyard), the Live Animal Room with its toads, crayfish, screech owl and occasional frogs, the popular Discovery Room where visitors may guess what such items as a skull or snakeskin are by simply touching them, and a track table where it is possible to make tracks of different animals encountered in this area. Novotny adds that the plan will not address exhibits, but it will address exhibit space. The Center offers a variety of programming throughout the year including hikes, school programs, workshops and special events. A quick glance at Mill Creek Park’s Facebook page indicates that the Ford Nature Center is a lively place. It has been the starting point for many two-mile hikes, such as a “moderate” hike to the Lily Pond and back and one on Father’s Day, as well as a “difficult” 16-kilometer hike. The center was also the site for an empowering day camp that led girls to discover their inner beauty. The Center is also popular for its recurring Explore events that expose local children to nature.

home on South Raccoon Road in Austintown, a log cabin was discovered that under artificial brick and wood siding. A deed search revealed that Calvin and Martha Austin (Calvin was a land agent for the Connecticut Land Company) sold the property to John Packard for $500. The deed does not indicate that any buildings were on the land; however, evidence shows that the cabin was built prior to 1824. The cabin was named the Austin Log Cabin to honor Calvin Austin. From 1973 to 1976, volunteers raised $50,000.00 to preserve the log cabin and prepare it for public use. Work to the cabin included a gas furnace, electrical wiring, a bathroom and plumbing, and a new wood shake shingle roof. Window frames were installed with glass from a 100-yearold home and a brick fireplace was added with brick from a 100-year-old school house. The Austintown Historical Society maintains the cabin and provides educational tours to local schools and the general public. Property owner: Austintown Township. Project designer: Austintown Historical Society. MVHS Directors’ Award of Achievement: Mark C. Peyko – Peyko has an undergradu-

ate degree from Youngstown State University and a master’s degree in Historic Preservation Planning from Eastern Michigan University. His thesis topic centered on the historic buildings of downtown Youngstown and their ongoing contribution to the city and its people. In 1992, Mark co-founded “The Metro Monthly,” a regional publication featuring wide-ranging subject matter, including historical articles and photographs. He is president of the North Side Citizens’ Coalition and recently directed a property-divestment initiative involving over 45 properties in the Wick Park Historic District. Of these, he personally found home buyers for five houses. He also was one of the first persons to buy a home in the district. The winners were honored at the Mahoning Valley Historical Society’s 139th Annual meeting on Tuesday, June 17 at the Tyler Mahoning Valley History Center, 325 West Federal St. in downtown Youngstown.

RESTAURANTS & DINING

Wine Guy offers recommendations for summer wines, beers

urrently, our area is in the throes of a stifling heat wave, so most of the following wine (and beer) recommendations were chosen for warm weather enjoyment. I recently attended Vintage Estate Wine and Beer’s annual Big Tap-In beer festival and found a number of tasty, refreshing beers and hard ciders. The first beer I sampled was Bell’s

passion without breaking your budget. My last pick from this tasting was the 2012 Peachy Canyon Incredible Red

Brewing Amber Ale

The Wine Guy John Webster

from Kalamazoo, Mich. This is a great choice for summer dining. Light caramel on the nose with a clean citrus note on the finish, it would be perfect with barbecued chicken. My next sample was a glass of Youngstown’s own Rust Belt Brewery’s Rusted River Irish

Red Ale. With malt and caramel notes

on the nose and a nutty finish, this is a great everyday brew that should pair with a number of summer-style foods. My next stop was the Woodchuck Hard Cider booth from Vermont, where I was offered a glass of their Amber Cider. Medium-bodied and refreshingly sweet-tasting with apple notes on the nose, this cider is a fine choice for crisp summer salads with sliced apples and other fresh fruits. Another great fruit-inspired beverage was the Rivertown Brewing Company of Cincinnati’s Lambic Pear Malt Beverage. This unique brew is aged in used port barrels for one year, giving it a pleasant woody finish in addition to its upfront pear flavors. On June 14, I attended the store tasting of Michael Charles Wines on Elm Road in Warren. If you’re looking for a refreshing inexpensive bubbly for upcoming summer dining, try the Avive Peach sparkler ($9.99) from Salon de Provence, France. Produced from locally made wine and peaches, it offers lush peach flavors and a long fizz-tinged finish that will have you popping another bottle in no time. This is a fun wine that will be the hit of any summer gathering. The central coast of California is the source of my next wine pick. The 2010 Mossback Pinot Noir ($15.99) has rich,

bright cherry and berry fruit flavors leading to a supple lingering clean finish. It would be perfect with burgers at your next cookout. Pinot of this quality is hard to find at this price range, and I was very pleased to come across this great discovery. My final pick is a red blend that should appeal to the adventuresome among us. The 2009 Matchbook Tempranillo from the Dunnigan Hills of California is a lusty blend of mostly Tempranillo with Tannat and Graciano added in for depth, richness and structure. Rich mocha-tinged red fruit flavors lead to a firm structured finish that should be outstanding with steak hot off the grill. On June 21, I attended Vintage Estate Wine and Beer’s second Saturday store

tasting, where I found three very nice wines for upcoming summer entertaining. My first pick was Paul Hobbs 2009 Cross Barn Chardonnay ($29.99) from the Sonoma Coast of California. Refreshing mouth-filling pear and citrus flavors lead to a lush finish that lasts forever. This is California Chardonnay at its best, and at a price that is hard to beat. As I mentioned above, great Pinot Noir is hard to find at $20 and under, but DeLoch Vineyards’ 2012 Heritage Reserve

at $10.99 a bottle is simply unbelievable. Luscious berry and red fruit flavors lead to a lingering finish tinged with spicy vanilla. For lovers of Pinot Noir, this is a fine everyday wine that will let you indulge your

from Paso Robles, Calif. This mostly Zinfandel red (with a smidgen of Syrah and Petite Sirah blended in) offers lush berry fruit flavors leading to a spicy oaktinged finish that should work nicely with grilled steak and chicken. Late this month, I attended two wine trade tastings in Cleveland. I found so many great wines at these two shows that I will have to cover some of them in future columns. At the Cutting Edge show at Rockefeller’s Restaurant, I found a delicious Semillon from the Clare Valley of Australia. Tim Adams 2012 Clare Valley Semillon offers lemony citrus flavors and a light oak-tinged finish. This wine will age well and is just the thing for someone looking for a unique gift of wine. I subsequently attended a Vintner Select tasting featuring wines of Germany and Austria from the Terry Theise portfolio. I quickly made my way to the table pouring the Nikolaihof-Wachau wines from Austria. Winemaker Niki Saahs led me through their stable of wines (some of which I’ll cover in future columns), and at the end, he filled my glass with a sampling of their 1997 Vinothek Riesling. This is one of the finest Rieslings I’ve ever had a chance to try. Crisp but muted citrus fruit flavors and a long, long finish send the signal that this is indeed a very special wine. I’d like to thank both Cutting Edge and Vintner Select distributors for inviting me to their fine events, and I look forward to reviewing some more of the great wines I found for you. Upcoming events include a Springfield Grille dinner pairing with unique mixed drinks on July 15 (contact restaurant for details); the Upstairs Restaurant’s Wine Down, third Thursday tasting; Charlie’s Premier Wines of Howland, every Saturday; Wine Styles, every other week on Thursday, Friday and Saturday; Vintage Estate, third Saturday tasting; and Michael Charles Premier Wines (Elm Road), second Saturday tasting. If your restaurant, shop or charity event is having an upcoming wine tasting, email me a month in advance at wineguy@ metromonthly.net.

JULY 2014 | METRO MONTHLY.NET

Blockbusters, cartoon dramas, movie sequels – it must be summer!

hether you’re a junkie for blockbusters or an admirer of the less familiar, change-of-pace film, this summer’s crop of movies aims to please all tastes. While barbeques and days at the pool can prove taxing, it’s all a matter of going the extra mile to seek out the seasonal gems. If this isn’t your prerogative, these next three months are loaded with the usual popcorn-munching fare that we’ve grown accustomed to each year. Now, let’s just cross our fingers and hope that at least a few can deliver the goods.

Enjoy Summer

SUMMER MOVIES

neered ex-military hunter (Channing Tatum) arrives on Earth to track her down. A Most Wanted Man (July 25 – Not Yet Rated) – Though he passed away earlier this year, Philip Seymour Hoffman will grace the screen in one of his last completed roles. This spy-thriller follows a Chechen Muslim who gets caught in the international war on terror after illegally immigrating to Hamburg. With Rachel McAdams, Robin Wright, Willem Dafoe and Daniel Bruhl.

On Film Ty Landis

Edge of Tomorrow (June 6 – Rated PG-13) – The reliable director Doug Liman (“Mr. & Mrs. Smith”) is no stranger to summer actioners, this time helming a sci-fi action-thriller about a soldier (Tom Cruise) who finds himself caught in a time loop while in a war with aliens. Full disclosure: when Cruise’s name is attached to a project, I’m usually there. With Emily Blunt, Bill Paxton, Brendan Gleeson

and Noah Taylor. 22 Jump Street (June 13 – Rated R) – Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum return in this sequel to the 2012 hit based off of the popular 80s TV series. This time, the charismatic duo goes undercover at a local university where the laughs hopefully prove to be as effective as they were in the first entry and as drunkenly gleeful as college itself. How to Train Your Dragon 2 (June 13 – PG-13) – While Disney’s “Frozen” owned the box-office in 2013, the Dreamworks sequel to the 2010 animated success should have no problem getting kids and adults to the multiplex for another adventure between Viking Hiccup (voiced by Jay Baruchel) and his faithful dragon, Toothless. With the voices of Cate Blanchett, Gerard Butler, Kit Harrington, Craig Ferguson, America Ferrara, Jonah Hill, Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Kirsten Wiig. Jersey Boys (June 20 – Rated R) – Though not likely to tickle the fancy of the younger demographic frequenting theaters this summer, this Clint Eastwood directed-biopic/musical following the iconic ‘60s group the Four Seasons could serve as a nice change of pace for moviegoers. Let’s just hope the film isn’t as dry as its trailer or as crusty as the 84-year-old Eastwood. The Rover (June 20 – Rated R) – Australian director David Michôd returns to the outback for another tale of violence and revenge in this dystopian drama following a hardened policeman (Guy Pearce) and his attempts to force a wounded thief (Robert Pattinson) to help him catch his gang. Transformers – Age of Extinction (June 27 – Not Yet Rated) – Michael Bay’s fourth entry in this flamboyantly loud franchise swaps out its prior lead Shia LaBeouf for Mark Wahlberg and a few other cast additions. Whether the latter

‘Edge of Tomorrow’ with Tom Cruise opens on June 6

ELECTRONIC IMAGE COURTESY OF 20TH CENTURY FOX

‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ opens on July 11 proves to be an upgrade or not, the main attraction has never been the human characters, but the Autobots and their battle with the Decepticons. With John Goodman, Ken Watanabe, Kelsey Grammer, Titus Welliver and Nicola Peltz.

July Tammy (July 2 – Rated R) – The first week of July is usually reserved for the summer’s biggest blockbuster, but this year, comedic wonder Melissa McCarthy (“Bridesmaids”) will have to suffice. McCarthy plays a woman who hits the road with her profane and alcoholic grandmother after getting fired from her job and learning that her husband has been unfaithful. With Susan Sarandon, Sandra Oh, Toni Collette, Dan Aykroyd and Kathy Bates Boyhood (July 11 – Rated R) – It’s hard not to get excited for Richard Linklater’s (the Before series) 12 years (all with the same cast) in the making drama following the life of a young man, Mason (Ellar Coltrane), from ages 5 to 18. With a concept this novel, few filmmakers are capable of transcending such an ambitious blueprint, but

Linklater is worth putting your money on. And get comfortable, this is the director’s longest film so far, clocking in close to three hours. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (July 11 – Not Yet Rated) – The latest incarnation of the franchise focuses on the growing rift between the genetically evolved apes and their leader Caesar and a band of humans who survived a deadly virus a decade earlier. Led by director Matt Reeves (“Let Me In”), “Dawn” has the potential to be this summer’s best and most intelligent sequel. With Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Judy Greer, Andy Serkis and Jason Clarke. Life Itself (July 11 – Unrated) – Oscar-nominated filmmaker Steve James (“Hoop Dreams”) focuses on the life of the legendary and inspiring film critic Roger Ebert. Jupiter Ascending (July 18 – Not Yet Rated) – Andy and Lana Wachowski (“Cloud Atlas”) bring their visionary palette to the sci-fi genre with their latest adventure, a colorful, special-effectsdriven adventure following a young destitute woman (Mila Kunis) who awakes to her true destiny in the universe when a genetically engi-

Calvary (Aug. 1 – Not Yet Rated) After he is threatened during a confession, a goodnatured priest (Brendan Gleeson) must battle dark forces closing in around him. With Chris O’Dowd, Kelly Reilly, M. Emmet Walsh. Get on Up (Aug. 1 – Not Yet Rated) A chronicle of James Brown’s (Chadwick Boseman) rise from extreme poverty to become one of the most influential musicians in history. Guardians of the Galaxy (Aug. 1 – Not Yet Rated) – Perhaps Marvel’s biggest gamble yet, the James Gunn-directed ”Guardians” sports an eclectic cast and finds a space adventurer (Chris Pratt) the object of a bounty hunt after stealing an orb coveted by a treacherous villain. Gunn has been a talent to watch, but the film’s trailers have been less than promising. With Zoe Saldana, Vin Diesel, Bradley Cooper, Glenn Close and Benicio Del Toro. Lucy (Aug. 8 – Not Yet Rated) – A woman (Scarlett Johansson), accidentally caught in a dark deal, turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior. From director Luc Besson. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Aug. 8 – Not Yet Rated) – The hard-shell warriors reemerge in a new decade to battle Shredder and his evil Foot Clan. The Expendables 3 (Aug. 15 – Not Yet Rated) – The aging action stars return once again, this time incorporating some younger blood into the mix to help them take down an arms dealer. With Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Mel Gibson, Antonio Banderas, Jet Li, Wesley Snipes, Dolph Lundgren, Kelsey Grammer, Harrison Ford and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Frank Miller’s Sin City – A Dame to Kill For (Aug. 22 – Not Yet Rated) It’s been nine years since the star-studded original won over newbies and fans of the source material. This time, the town’s most hard-boiled citizens cross paths with some of its more-reviled inhabitants. With Jessica Alba, Mickey Rourke, Rosario Dawson, Bruce Willis, Josh Brolin and more.
