The New York firm of Reinhard and Hofmeister designed the tower, while In Deeds Carillon, four steel shafts sheathed in Indiana limestone and standing in a granite base rise 151.5 feet (46.2 m) above ground level. At the base of the tower is a flagstone terrace with sets of shallow steps yet protected, vault for the fifty-seven hanging bells.

From this open tower hang the tuned bells; just small room via a one-person elevator housed in one of the four shafts. At ground level, a room at the base allows access to the elevator, and to a restroom built into another one of the vertical shafts. In the original installation, the bells' clappers were electrified and were played from a keyboard console in this room. A basement level features a practice room and room for electrical and other equipment. the room. This door is covered by a second bronze grill door with three verses from Henry W. Longfellow's 1863 poem "Christmas Bells" forming the grillwork. Two small windows on the ground level have similar art deco-inspired grillwork?

The nonprofit Carillon The design of the tower is simple, strong, and unique, showing an Art Moderne influence. Slight entasis Meenely Bell Foundry of Troy, New York, cast the original bells. Deeds Carillon was the only complete of its four shafts give the tower a graceful appearance.It is quite unusual in design in that the carillon's NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 (Rev. 10-90) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES REGISTRATION FORM Section number 2 Page Montgomery County, Ohio 3. Then pealed the bells more loud and deep; "God is not dead; nor does he sleep! With peace on earth, good-will to men!" Upon its 1942 completion, Deeds Carillon, the seventh free-standing carillon in the United States, from the cross-shaped intersections of the arches.

A carillonneur operated the bells electrically from a MT), was inscribed with Edward A. Deeds' name and birth date and was located on the top tier of bells. The second-largest ringing bell, inscribed with Edith Deeds' name, was located on the second highest tier. Of the nine silent bells, six were inscribed with the names of deceased Deeds family members. Soon after the carillon's completion, Mrs. Deeds found that the tone of the bells was of a lower quality than she expected, and initiated the first of several modifications made to improve the bell tower. A celestron, an electronic device used for playing recorded music, was added thirty-five feet (10.7 m) above thirty-two speakers. Four bells were replaced in 1950. In 1963-64, Dutch artisans recast eleven bells. Between 1971 and 1975, the number of bells increased from thirty-two to forty, and most of the bells were re-tuned.

In 1986, Educational and Musical Arts hired a consultant to advise Carillon Park on potential improvements to the bells. With the consultant's study as a guide, carillonneur William DeTurk convinced the Board of Trustees of Educational and Musical Arts that total replacement of the bells was the only way to ensure musical success. He also recommended that the bells be played mechanically, Originally, carillonneurs played Deeds Carillon from an ivory keyboard with electronic action operating the clappers, though most other carillons used keyboards containing wooden levers and pedals wired to clappers. In 1988, Petit & Fritsen Royal Bellfoundry in the Netherlands cast fifty new bells for Deeds Carillon.

Carillon Park hung the new bells from steel brackets attached to the sides of the tower, from dedicated on 23 October 1988, were inscribed, like the original, with the Deeds family names; death dates were added for Edward and Edith Deeds. The original bell inscribed for Edward A. Deeds was mounted on a polished granite base and installed on the lawn between the carillon and Patterson Boulevard as a NPS Deeds Carillon with no electrical amplification. The Wrong shall fail, bells are now played from a wooden keyboard and pedals that are wired to clappers.

Since the new bells were to be played mechanically, a small playing cabin was built immediately beneath them; an elevator to the cabin was installed inside one of the four shafts. An additional seven bells have been added since 1988, raising the total to fifty-seven bells, making Deeds Carillon the largest in Ohio. to the Great Miami River, with the bluffs of a natural moraine and suburban hills forming a backdrop.

Lawns radiate out to Patterson Boulevard and Carillon Boulevard.On two sides, a great lawn gradually slopes down toward the moraine, uniting Deeds Carillon with the additional sixty-two acres (25 ha) of Carillon Historical Park, the adjacent outdoor historical museum later developed by Col. Deeds. Flowering trees and other ornamentals line the Patterson Boulevard edge of the property; a small grove of trees buffers the great door openings are the same. The only visible exterior changes have been the removal of the celestron, which was not part of the original design, and the addition of the playing cabin.

Carillon Park made few other changes to the structure and its surroundings. In the early 1960s, Carillon Park added exterior lighting to the surrounding grounds to illuminate the carillon at night, upgrading and replacing fixtures in 1995. Carillon Park replaced the roof of the first floor console room in 1996. Deeds Carillon designed the landscape. 3 See Photograph 6 lawn area from museum buildings.

While the carillon is a prominent local example of Art Deco and Art Moderne style, this nomination does not seek to list the carillon under Criterion C. Only ten carillons exist in Ohio, and most are attached to church buildings. Only two are freestanding.* Designed by the New York architectural firm of Reinhard and Hofmeister in the Art Moderne style and landscaped by the Olmsted Brothers, Deeds Carillon is a unique structure on the Ohio landscape. Deeds Carillon commemorates the Deeds family. When the tower was built, each bell was inscribed with the name of a Deeds family member, with the "silent" bells bearing the names of deceased family members and the ringing bells cast with the names of family members then living. Even with its commemorative connections to the Deeds family, however, the carillon's primary purpose is musical.

bells are arranged in chromatic series with sharps and flats, allowing music in any key to be played. Mechanical clappers connected by wires to a console strike the inside of the bells to produce a sound. The carillonneur sits facing the console and plays the instrument by depressing rounded levers with keyboard of a piano and has keys arranged in two rows. Carillons evolved in the lowlands of Holland, was not until the 1920s and 1930s, however, that North American entities began to acquire carillons of considerable size and weight. Deeds Carillon is locally significant for its role in entertainment and performing arts. The carillon was built through the efforts of Edith Walton Deeds (1870-1949). Mrs. Deeds was born in Spring Valley, Ohio, outside of Dayton. At an early age Mrs. Deeds was introduced to music at her Quaker congregation, learning to play the piano and pipe organ.

She studied music at Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana, and intended to advance her studies at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music before Carillon, Dayton (freestanding); Mary M.

She periodically played at the First Regular Baptist Church of Dayton after moving from Indiana to Ohio and, throughout her life, maintained a desire to share the beauty of good music with others.

She was impressed by the carillon music she heard on her European travels, particularly in Bruges, Belgium, and decided to provide a carillon for her community. Mrs. Deeds believed that "In no other way can simple, inspiring music be spread among an served as chairman of the National Cash Register Company, and was the first president of the Miami Conservancy District, which was created in the wake of Dayton's 1913 flood. After examining a number of possible sites, Mrs. Deeds chose the carillon's present location for its beauty. She also felt that the site would provide natural amplification for the sound of the carillon. She purchased the land and donated it to Educational and Musical Arts, Inc., a non-profit corporation established to administer the carillon.

Edith Deeds gave the first performance on the Deeds Carillon on Easter Sunday, 5 April 1942; the first regularly scheduled carillon concert, in which Mrs. Deeds also participated, occurred on 23 August of that same year. Robert Kline, the carillon's first Carillonneur played before Dayton audiences from 1942 until 1986. The Easter sunrise service and seasonal weekly carillon concerts became annual Dayton traditions during the carillon's first sixty years." The carillon is significant for its association with local public entertainment, recreation and performing arts. As the only carillon in the Dayton area, Deeds Carillon provides a unique cultural opportunity to local residents, allowing opportunities to listen to music not played by the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra Wright State University's Nutter Center, or the Victoria Theatre.

Its great lawn is a popular site for kite flying, weddings, and community festivals. Several festivals, including the German Picnic and the Fleurs de Fête occur annually on the carillon lawn. Deeds Carillon is an important recreational and architectural landmark in the city of Dayton. Located on the eastern bank of the Great Miami River, its setting and landscape augment its striking appearance. Its definitively says "Dayton, Ohio." Throughout the years, Deeds Carillon has been used in print advertising, on local media news broadcasts, in artwork, and as a community symbol. Local businesses use the carillon in their names, e.g. Carillon Cafeteria, Carillon House Condominiums, Carillon S Isaac F.

The city of Dayton uses "Carillon" to identify the neighborhood just across the Great Miami River from Carillon Historical Park and the Deeds Carillon.® It is also noteworthy that the New York architectural firm of Reinhard and Hofmeister designed Deeds Carillon. The firm is known for its work on Rockefeller Center (1927-35) in New York City. Stylistically the carillon reflects a conservative modernism and is most closely related to the Art Deco/Art Moderne style. Its soaring simplicity and the decorative details of the grill door and windows are elements of the Art Deco/Art Moderne style. Art Deco/Art Moderne is characterized by the cloaking of facades with balanced, streamlined bands, the use of smooth metal and machined surfaces, and a partnership between art and engineering.

The Deeds Carillon encompasses these characteristics of Art Deco/Art Moderne and shows a clear partnership between art and architecture. James L. Edwards of Edwards & Hjorth of New York designed the steel structure for the Deeds Carillon. This firm's engineering achievements include the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, and the While the Olmstead Brothers of Brookline, Massachusetts, designed the landscape of the Deeds Carillon, the acreage around the carillon is not an outstanding or significant example of their work. Therefore, the Deeds Carillon is not proposed for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places for its connections Today Deeds Carillon remains a recognizable symbol of Dayton, a source of music from April to November, and a memorial to philanthropists Edward and Edith Deeds and their family.
