"Not being afraid to ask some of the difficult questions. We know that that does not increase or worsen the risk for suicide. It actually can save a life." "Suicide affects everyone. It doesn't matter your age, race or gender," Emhoff said. "One hundred and thirty-two people die by suicide each and every day." Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff shared the grim numbers of the growing public health crisis.

Frank Eversole, one of the owners, freely admits that he didn’t want things like exposed ceilings and reclaimed wood.

This old gymnasium will get new life as affordable housing.
Our impeccable service and lovely ambience set the stage for a remarkable evening. Japanese A5 Wagyu headlines a variety of premium, hand-selected steaks. Inventive seafood features are prepared to perfection. An exciting range of entrees, salads and small plates bring offerings full circle. Named “Best New Restaurant” in CityBeat’s “2021 Best of Cincinnati” issue, Ivory House has become a fast favorite for special occasion dining, Sunday brunch and everything in between.
This aesthetic of carefully made classics is the perfect mindset for brunch, and Ivory House has one of the city’s best. From the pickle-y green hollandaise in the Green Benedictine to the delicious French toast (it’s actually a sliced and griddled bread pudding), everything we had was exceptional. The Cincinnati hash created a kind of regional super-dish by combining goetta, Cincinnati chili, potatoes, and an egg. Executive Chef Rob Scannell, who developed the menu with the former Executive Chef Dana Adkins, uses his own recipe for the chili, which is the dominant flavor in the hash, and it has wonderful zip and balance.
Even when an ingredient seems out of left field, like the burnt rosemary and pine nut puree on the carpaccio or the burnt grapefruit hot sauce on the pork belly and tenderloin, it never tastes as unusual as it sounds. The carpaccio has a perfect nutty vinaigrette, and the hot sauce is just a hint of sweet citrusy spice that melts into the grits—a softly intriguing element rather than a slap in the face. Throughout the menu, the flavors are subtle and lower register without ever being bland.
Ivory House Reviews
Ivory House’s menu generally doesn’t reinvent dishes or introduce outlandish flavors, but simply pays attention to enough little things to make the results unusually good. The Wagyu Frisco, after all, is basically a cheeseburger, but the exceptional tomme from Urban Stead gives it that extra something. The cocktails are things you’ve probably seen before, but everything we had—from the bourbon rhubarb sour to the Queen City’s Bees Knees—had an extra dash of liveliness from a house-made element, like a rhubarb honey syrup or the raspberry shrub.
Welcome to Ivory House
The name refers to James N. Gamble, son of the founder of Procter & Gamble, inventor of Ivory Soap, and the last mayor of the Village of Westwood before it was absorbed into the city. Befitting the name, the restaurant has a classic atmosphere—from the white baby grand piano near the gleaming bar to the framed black-and-white photographs that date back to the late 19th century. We ate our meals out on the small enclosed porch. With cold weather arriving and the pandemic stretching on, Ivory House plans to heat the space through the winter, and has since added dividers to the dining room inside, so that people can safely enjoy the space.
Our Wine Program
The staff was welcoming and worked hard to ensure we had a very pleasant dining experience. Even during these difficult pandemic months, Eversole says he’s noticed that diners have been staying for a while at the restaurant, often for three hours. One escape that remains is a good meal at a truly nice neighborhood restaurant. Although the restaurant has been open only a few months, Ivory House feels like it pays homage to an earlier time.

This sense of connection is apparent in everything Ivory House does.

Since these two wall segments should be equal, use the same 3” midpoint mark and draw two diagonal lines down to the endpoints. The one inch (1”) line down from the top will be cut off as well, from the six inch mark to the other side of the piece. Several of our pieces will need to be cut at an angle to make room for the slope of the roof we are going to construct. Start with the 6” x 11-1/2” piece - mark at the top of the piece where the midpoint is, which should be at 3”. We will draw a horizontal line an inch (1”) down from the top of the piece, and the draw a diagonal line on either side from the midpoint down to the endpoints of that line. Whole house fans are usually placed in a ceiling towards the middle of the house.

Most miniature houses in the store for Christmas villages ended up being only about 5 or 6 inches in height. The cost of the larger ones ranges anywhere from $100 or more especially if they are the Department 56™ brand. All of them are such beautiful houses, just not in my budget. Because my mantel is so big and long, the miniature houses I could find in the stores were tiny little houses that looked even more dwarf-like on the mantel.
The latter two pieces will have the dimensions of 2-1/4" x 9", also creating an eave. We also have to account for the diagonal created by our roof pieces we've already glued in place. To make our house construction sturdy, we will add a base beneath the whole structure. Begin by taking a large sheet of cardboard and placing the house base on top of it. Using a pencil, trace an outline of the house about an inch out from the walls. Once you have your outline you can cut out the shape and then add glue to the bottoms of the walls and stick them to the base.
With clear instructions and room for personal touches, it’s an engaging way to spend quality time together while fostering creativity and sustainability. It’s a budget-friendly project that results in endless entertainment and a personalized touch to your child’s playtime. Perfect for indoor activity, these playhouses are sure to be a hit with the kiddos while keeping them engaged in a single room.
Once I glued the sides of the house back together, the blue would not show on the inside of the house anymore. I didn’t appreciate the assignment as much as I should have. In frustration, I was on the verge of mentally tossing out the whole vision I had for my winter mantel.

What You Should Know About American Colonial-Style Houses
With careful consideration and thought put into your walk path design, you’ll have an amazing-looking colonial house in no time. The two-story design is not ideal for families with small children or those with aging or elderly family members due to the potential dangers of navigating a full staircase. And because of the two-story design, most colonial-style houses have 8-foot ceilings, which could be a con for homebuyers who prefer skylights or ceilings that are nine to ten feet tall. Colonial-style houses usually boast a lot of square footage, and due to their two-story design, they can accommodate large families. These houses have stood the test of time and are still very popular and well-loved today.

The timeless appeal of these homes allows for them to never go out of style and stand out as a testament to history. While we appreciate the history, endurance, and versatility of these homes, we’re able to recognize the enduring legacy of these architectural gems. Today, however, the term American Colonial architecture almost always refers to British Colonial architecture in America. American Colonial homes typically have a square or rectangular front, a centre door, and a symmetrical set of windows on either side of the door. They are usually made of wood, stone, or brick and will usually have doors and windows full-size shutters. Practicality was a key consideration when they were built so they have functional features such as small windows to keep the heat out, and they're durable because they were built to last.

French colonial houses tend to have wide overhangs that are hipped or side-gabled, with sharply pitched roofs. Often, there is a “French” door in every room that leads to the outside. The French colonial can be seen in areas of the United States with a historically strong French influence, such as Louisiana. New Orleans, LA, has many houses and buildings that were made in French Colonial style.

Most Colonial house plans are two-stories, but choose a one-story plan if you desire easier living for future years. Early Colonial home exteriors typically consisted of mainly siding, often painted white, because the cost of bricks was unaffordable at that time. Modern Colonial homes are often a mixture of stone and siding, brick and siding, and occasionally, you'll find a newer home that is still all horizontal siding. Colonial homes almost always have some sort of porch surrounding the central front door that is supported by round white columns. Evenly shuttered windows are also very common on a Colonial house plan, and dormers are often found on the roof from each of the upstairs bedrooms.

This places the stairway as a central, dominant design element within the structure. A colonial home usually has the front door placed directly in the center of the front wall, opening right onto the staircase area. As a result of the infrastructure and materials available during their namesake era, traditional American Colonial homes are fairly simple. Similar to the homes colonists lived in back in England, they’re rectangular, typically two stories, and fairly symmetrical.
Spanish colonial style houses are known for their rustic appearance and can be found in Florida, California and in the Southwestern states such as Arizona and New Mexico. They were usually built with white stucco walls to deflect the heat and low pitched roofs made from red clay tiles. Other typical architectural features include few and small windows to help combat the heat, arches and a courtyard. Colonial revival house plans are typically two to three story home designs with symmetrical facades and gable roofs. Pillars and columns are common, often expressed in temple-like entrances with porticos topped by pediments. Multi-pane, double-hung windows with shutters, dormers, and paneled doors with sidelights topped with rectangular transoms or fanlights help dress up the exteriors which are generally wood or brick.
The colonial house style has seen a revival in recent years, and the design has been refreshed for the modern era, whilst still holding onto it’s classic characteristics.
