ENJOY THE HEART OF CINCINNATI AT FOUNTAIN SQUARE<\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

\nW<\/span><\/em><\/strong>e miniaturists in Cincinnati, Ohio, are super excited \u2028that the NAME National Convention will be heading our way August 14\u201317, 2025. Having hosted the annual convention\u2028here twice before\u2014in 1984 and 1990\u2014one might say that it\u2019s long overdue! Our 2025 Convention will be held at the Westin Hotel Cincinnati, located in the heart of downtown across from Fountain Square. The 17-story, 456-room hotel was built in 1981 on the site of the historic Gibson Hotel and acquired by Marriott International Inc. in 2016. Its amenities are top notch, with easy access to all facilities for our convention. And, for those of you who travel a lot, know that the Westin participates in Marriott\u2019s Bonvoy rewards program. An informative article about that program can be found at CNN underscored: <cnn.com\/cnn-underscored\/travel\/marriott-bonvoy-guide<\/a>><\/em>.<\/p>\n

One banquet room in particular will surely become your favorite\u2014it\u2019s already mine! That\u2019s the Fountain Room, aptly named for its panoramic view of Cincinnati\u2019s famous Tyler Davidson Fountain. The impressive 43-foot tall fountain, icon of our city, is truly breathtaking to behold, especially when lit at night! Be sure to walk across the Square to take it all in when you\u2019re here. Fountain Square and nearby environs are convenient to shopping and restaurants, all within walking distance of the hotel. Visit <myfountainsquare.com\/nearby<\/a>><\/em> and <visitcincy.com\/listing\/fountain-square\/5506<\/a>><\/em> to plan ahead. We\u2019ll highlight some of those in future articles.<\/p>\n

Focusing on the Fountain<\/span><\/h2>\n

Even though my family\u2019s roots are here, and I even cooled my heels in the fountain as a teenager (you\u2019re not supposed to do that!), I never knew the story behind it. So I was fascinated to learn its history and hope you will be, too… In 1866, Cincinnati hardware magnate Henry Probasco sold his business and traveled to Munich, Germany, in search of a suitable memorial to honor his deceased business partner and brother-in-law, Tyler Davidson. Approaching the Royal Bronze Foundry of Bavaria, Probasco learned of a fountain design that had been conceived 25 years earlier, but was never cast. Artist August von Kreling and Ferdinand von Miller (the elder, Director of the Foundry) had collaborated on a unique concept that would celebrate mankind rather than one populated with mythical deities. Probasco commissioned the fountain and requested four additional figures with animals that would be drinking fountains, which Miller\u2019s sons Ferdinand and Fritz designed. The fountain was constructed of approximately 24 short tons\u2028 of cannon bronze purchased from the Danish government and 85 short tons of green granite. Cast in separate sections at the foundry, it was shipped to Cincinnati for assembly. Its dedication ceremony took place on October 6, 1871.<\/p>\n

One hundred years later, renovations starting in 1969 prepared the fountain for its centennial. Another renovation took place in 1999, and the most recent, in 2005, moved the entire fountain to the middle of Fountain Square. It flowed once again on October 14, 2006.<\/p>\n

\"The
The Genius of Water<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Titled \u201cThe Genius of Water,\u201d the fountain\u2019s motif pays homage to the city\u2019s symbiotic relationship with the Ohio River. The square pedestal has four basso-relievo representations\u2028 of principle uses of water: steam, water power, navigation\u2028 and fisheries. Around the pedestal are four groups of figures topped by a 9-ft tall central female figure (I take it that she\u2019s the \u201cGenius\u201d) that sprays longed-for \u201crain\u201d from her outstretched fingers. The four outer drinking fountain figures represent\u2028 the pleasures of water, while the basins under them were intended to provide refreshment for horses and dogs.

Perusing the Past<\/span><\/h2>\n

Going back a little further into our local history… Founded\u2028 in 1788, Cincinnati is considered by many historians to be the first American city, as it was the first major city to develop after America secured its independence. Located in the southwest corner of Ohio, north of the confluence of the Licking and Ohio Rivers and between the Great and Little Miami Rivers, three settlements comprised what would become the city: Columbia, Losantiville, and North Bend, joined by Fort Washington in 1789, which was built to defend settlers from Native attacks. Early settlers were mostly former Revolutionary War officers who were granted lands, soldiers and their families, and pioneers from New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Kentucky who came to purchase affordable land.<\/p>\n

In 1790, Arthur St. Clair, governor of the Northwest Territory*, established Hamilton County and named the combined settlements \u201cCincinnati\u201d; at that time about 700 people lived here. St. Clair was president of The Society of the Cincinnati. He named the city the same, in honor of a Fifth Century BC Roman citizen soldier, Lucius Quinctius Cincinnatus, who was commended for his loyalty and brave service in saving Rome from a crisis.<\/p>\n

*At the time, the Northwest Territory was huge! It encompassed over 260,000 square miles, including present-day states of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

Of course, Native Americans were already here, including the Ojibwa, Lenape, Ottawa, Wyandotte, Shawnee and Miami tribes. After many skirmishes and two major battles (Wabash in 1792 and Fallen Timbers in 1794), eleven tribes signed the Treaty of Greenville in 1794, which forced them to relinquish most of their land.<\/p>\n

Cincinnati gained its charter as a town in 1802. By 1803, there were about 1,000 civilian residents. The introduction\u2028 of steamboats on the Ohio River in 1811 spurred trade and growth, and jobs were plentiful. A significant number of German-speaking immigrants came, who later founded many of the city\u2019s cultural institutions. Incorporated as a city in 1819, Cincinnati was nicknamed \u201cQueen of the West,\u201d and by the next year there were nearly 10,000 residents. By 1850 the city had grown to 115,435 and was ranked sixth largest in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Other nicknames for Cincinnati include The Queen City,\u2028The City of Seven Hills, Cincy, The \u2018Nati, The Pig City, and Porkopolis\u2014so called because Cincinnati was once the pork-processing capital of the country (prior to Chicago taking over that moniker by 1875). During the 1840s to 1860s, hogs overran downtown streets as they were herded into one of 48 pork-packing warehouses that existed then. With the Ohio River as its lifeline, steamboats transported pork and hay, as well as many other products.<\/p>\n

Prior to the Civil War, with Kentucky being a slave state just across the river, Cincinnati became an important stop on the Underground Railroad. Abolitionist author Harriet Beecher Stowe lived here as a young adult. No doubt influenced by her deeply religious family and controversial issues surrounding slavery, her book, \u201cUncle Tom\u2019s Cabin; or, Life Among the Lowly,\u201d published in 1852, became the best-selling novel of the 19th century and is said to have helped fuel the abolitionist cause leading up to the Civil War. Due to our \u201cDefense of Cincinnati,\u201d however, no shots were ever fired in the Queen City during the Civil War (1861\u20131865).<\/p>\n

By the late 1800s, Cincinnati was commonly referred to as the \u201cParis of America,\u201d due mainly to ambitious architectural projects. The city had an art academy, art museum, Music Hall, opera house, Exposition Building, and a public library. About 130 magazines and newspapers were produced in the city. There were more than 200 churches, five hospitals, and a university. In 1888, the German Protestants community started a \u201csick house\u201d (\u201cKrankenhaus\u201d) started by deaconesses, which evolved into the city\u2019s first general hospital and included nurses\u2019 training school. It was renamed Deaconess Hospital in 1917.<\/p>\n

I dare say that few horses drink from the Tyler Davidson Fountain anymore, but you can cool off there when you come to Convention next August. The Convention Committee has its collective hands full. I\u2019ve been told it takes three years to plan a NAME Convention and, at this point, we have a little over one year. Join me in applauding Chairs Nancye Claypool and Ellen Grinstead Yunker and all our volunteer committee members for taking this on with such short notice. Wish us luck and help out where you can! Next time we\u2019ll introduce you to more of our lovely Queen City.<\/p>\n
