The Italianate Criterion House at 225-227 High Street (to the Left in the upper image) was built in 1883 to the design of Thomas Stoddart Lambert (1840-1915). The building occupies the site of a pair of early wooden two storey premises, one of which was was a branch post office and grocers, the other being the fancy repository of Montague and Company.

 

Scotsman Lambert, a City Councilor, also designed the now demolished Jewish Synagogue (1881-1985c) in Gloucester Street West and the United Service Hotel (1885-1990) in Cathedral Square. The only other of his buildings known to have survived within the city are the former Tuam Street Hall (subsequently known as the Opera House), also built in 1883 and the earlier Church House on the Northwest corner of Cashel and Manchester Streets.

 

The Left hand third of Criterion House was occupied by George Hartley Bonnington (1837-1901), a Chemist and Druggist of Woolston. In the mid 1860s his Pharmacy was situated in a small wooden shop next to the Northeast corner of High and Lichfield Streets. George is probably best remembered for his remarkably successful Bonnington's Irish Moss cough mixture. By 1906 James Henderson Cobb, a Commercial Traveler, occupied the first floor as showrooms, the windows of which had been expanded to double their width sometime after 1908.

 

The Right hand two thirds of Criterion House were originally the premises of the Drapers Black, Beattie and Company. This was the first building in New Zealand to be fitted with a pneumatic document carrying system, which connected the shop counters with a central cashier to whom the customer's payments would be dispatched. The Cashier would then return the change and receipts to the shop assistants in cartridges that were driven along overhead pipes by compressed air.

 

Robert Black (1820-1887) had previously occupied a small shop on the corner of High and Lichfield Streets, but went into partnership with Robert Beattie from Dunedin in 1883. Black and his son Robert William managed the drapery shop while Robert Beattie (1844-1897) traveled the South Island as the company's sales representative. Beattie's wife was drowned at Kaikoura in 1892 and five years later he died in London while taking his two daughters to England for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations.

 

To the Right of Criterion House are the premises of W. Strange and Company. Designed by William Barnett Armson (1834-83) and built in 1874, this building occupied the sites of the first Town Hall (1857) and the adjoining second Town Hall of 1863 (both destroyed by fire in 1873).

 

William Strange (1834-1914) was a highly successful Draper and added another two floors to his building between 1900 and 1907. Strange expanded his business into Criterion House before 1909 and also built the extant 1899-1900 premises at the corner of Lichfield Street, which had been the site of Victoria House, his first Draper's shop in 1863. Strange's 1874 premises endured until 1984, being replaced by the Ministry of Social Development's Central Service Centre.

 

About 1988 Criterion House burnt and the two upper floors have been vacant since then. The building was purchased in July 2006 by the KPI Rothschild Property Group. Restoration work began in January 2007, with completion expected in March 2008.

 

But Criterion House is not the oldest survivor in this High Street block, that distinction lurks behind the modernised facade of the building currently occupied by Hunters and Collectors at number 235 (far Right). Melbourne House was built by Polish Ironmongers Solomon and Hiram Nashelski to replace their single storey hardware shop of 1864, which they shared with Hermann Issac, a watchmaker and Solomon Nashelski's son-in-law. One could purchase a revolver over their counter in the late 1880s and business was good; they had added a fourth storey before 1900. Although gutted in the Great Fire of 1908 it was refurbished and subsequently became Ashby, Bergh and Company when Solomon Nashelski of Armagh Street died in 1890.

 

Edward E Ashby and the Norwegian Ludwig Bergh (1848-1895) had both begun work at the original Ironmongery in 1864, and although their names remain incised into the Limestone facade, the 143 year old ghost of the Nashelki brother's humble enterprise lingers on as the automotive parts retailer Repco.

 

To the extreme left of the older image can be glimpsed the corner of Alfred Jones' single storey Boot and Shoe Depot.

 

Canterbury Heritage, a journal of the province's social history and cultural heritage.

Originally called the “Music Museum and Grainger Museum”, the “Grainger Museum” is a small Streamline Moderne Art Deco building, built between 1935 and 1939, a repository of items documenting the life, career and music of the well known Australian composer, folklorist and pianist, Percy Grainger (1882 – 1961).

 

Built on one of Melbourne’s grand tree lined boulevards, Royal Parade in Parkville, the autobiographical museum was constructed in two stages between 1935 and 1939, on land provided for the purpose by the University of Melbourne. The Grainger Museum was designed by the staff architect of Melbourne University, John Stevens Gawler (1885 – 1978) through his architectural firm Gawler and Drummond. The building, built of brown clinker bricks is typical of Streamline Moderne design in Australia in the late 1930s, yet it also has undertones of the Arts and Crafts movement. It has very little detailing on the outside, with a severe arched entranceway, two windows featuring Art Deco grillework, a few decorative panels of brickwork (quite typical of John Gawler’s work) and the remaining windows consisting of glass bricks. The name of the museum appears above the main entranceway in stark Art Deco lettering made of cast iron which have been painted black. The museum is circular and features a small central courtyard accessed by two sets of French doors. The courtyard facades are detailed with decorative brickwork.

 

The Grainger Museum received input from Mr. Grainger in its design as well as its purpose, as well as funding provided by the composer. Mr. Grainger had contemplated establishing an autobiographical museum in the early 1920s, following the sudden suicide of his mother Rose, to whom he was very devoted. The museum contains large quantity of material from Mr. Grainger’s life, including art and furnishings from his home, musical instruments that he used, compositions, recordings, reformist clothing, published scores, field recordings, photographs, books and personal items belonging not only to Mr. Grainger, but also his mother. It also contains a curio case of whips that Mr. Grainger used in sadomasochist sexual acts which were in a trunk given to the museum with strict instructions that it was not to be opened until ten year after his death. The trunk also contained photographs of the composer after sessions of self flagellation. The museum also contains large amounts of material concerning some of his musical contemporaries, many of whom have fallen into obscurity. The Grainger Museum was officially opened in December 1938, and was staffed and maintained by Mr. Grainger throughout his life.

 

Sadly, the Grainger Museum suffered some initial setbacks with the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, when the building was used for storage for the duration, rather than its original purpose. The museum’s designs were also problematic, as the building was prone to leaks and required extensive waterproofing. The majority of objects were not put on public display until the 1950s when Mr. Grainger visited Australia with the intention of finishing his autobiographical project; something he failed to do as he set sail for his New York home with the task still incomplete. During the 1960s the Grainger Museum was opened to the public regularly for the first time and was sometimes used for concerts and musical workshops for jazz and other avant-garde music, which would have pleased Mr. Grainger, who sadly had died some five years before this eventuality. The Grainger Museum quietly closed its doors in 2003 for extensive renovation, restoration and conservation work. It reopened seven years later 2010, and has been open selectively ever since, showcasing Mr. Grainger’s life and works in a smart, well set out and discreet fashion.

 

Percy Aldridge Grainger was born in Brighton, Melbourne. He showed precocious talent in music, and at the age of 13 he left Australia to further his ability by attending the Hoch Conservatory in Frankfurt, Germany. In 1901 he moved to London, where with the assistance of his mother, he established himself as a successful society pianist, and developed a career as a concert performer and composer. During his time in London, he also collected original folk melodies and helped revive interest in British folk music in the early years of the 20th Century. Mr. Grainger left England in 1914, and moved to the United States, where he lived for the rest of his life, residing in White Haven, a suburb of New York with his mother, Rose, who was always his greatest supporter and exponent. Mr. Grainger took up American citizenship in 1918. After his mother committed suicide in 1922, he involved himself more with educational work, and created his own experimental and unusual musical compositions. He particularly enjoyed musical experiments with fantastic music machines that he imagined, and perhaps hoped, would supersede human interpretation one day. During this time, he also made adaptations of other composers' musical works. In 1926, while returning to America from a tour, he met Ella Ström, a Swedish-born artist, whom he married before an enraptured audience at one of his concerts at the Hollywood Bowl in 1928. Mr. Grainger already had a great interest in Nordic music, but his wife’s lineage only served to drive his passion for such music even more. As he grew older he continued to give concerts. He also revised and rearranged compositions of his own, preferring this to writing new music, of which he produced little. After the Second World War, he suffered ill health which reduced his productivity and activity in his passions, and he considered his career to be a failure. He gave his final concert in 1960, less than a year before his death. The piece of music with which Percy Grainger is most generally remembered is his pretty piano arrangement of the folk-dance tune “Country Gardens”.

 

The architectural firm of Gawler and Drummond was a prolific, though rather undistinguished firm that designed a range of domestic, industrial, commercial and church buildings. These include the McRorie house in Camberwell in 1916, the Fitzroy department store Ackmans Ltd in 1918, the Loch Church of England in 1926, the Korumburra Church of England in 1927, the Deaf and Dumb Society's church at Jolimont in 1929 and the Nyora Church of England in 1930. The Percy Grainger Museum is perhaps Gawler and Drummond’s most distinguished work.

 

The Grainger Museum was open as part of the 2014 Open House Melbourne Weekend.
