Amazing built in only 2 years before modern equipment!!

This is very sad. I wonder why they didn't sell it? My mother has a civil style house from 1896. It takes her, my sister and myself to keep it going. It seems like there is something wrong all the time. My mother loves the house and we are fortunate we can help her with it.

Beautiful craftsmanship. Really sad to see it in such bad shape. Thankful that they want to save it!

It is a great example of Victorian era architecture . Houses that old are difficult to maintain for a variety of reasons. Great architectural features made with the best materials and workmanship are almost impossible to recreate today. The high cost maintenance on items like the roof the plumbing and electrical as well the keeping the paint updated are the main reasons these old houses are sometimes torn down. Another reason as a single family dwelling it cannot be run without an army of domestic servants that are very hard find these days.

This is a marvelous house! It makes me happy to see it.

That is a picture of the old world look at the structure of this building do you see the the buildings being built today don't look like this

How wonderful!

But what about inside the tower?You left out the best part! "Not now,maybe some other time"

How is it that after FIFTY+ years on the National Register of Historic Places, this building continues to decay?

Beautiful structure inside and out. I hope that it receives the attention it deserves.

What is the cage looking feature on the floor underneath the glass stained skylight? 1.06

So happy they brought this home back to life 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Before y’all feel too sorry for this house, just remember that Krueger’s employees likely worked long, hard hours for meager pay and lived in barely habitable conditions.

It. shouldn't have been let to Decay The State of NJ. should have stepped in ... Decades ago and restored the House 🏠..& rented it out for Special Events & sight seeing tours ... That would have paid for the cost of repairs ..eventually... and then make a profit for the State ...😮. Just my opinion

This video has a comfortable pacing. The pan and zooms keep the eye active with increasing detail.

Perhaps you may consider reducing the fade-in to fade-out to 3 seconds instead of 5.

Saw this years ago in ruins, and it made me sick that some rich person could of refurbished it and just written it off. To happy to think about it now, it's been saved!🟥🟥🟢🟢🔵🔵🔵🔵🟩🟩🟣🟣🟧🟧

It’s in Newark, that’s all I’m gonna say….

It's absolutely disgusting places like this are left to die and rot away.

Amazing

That bulging wall on the staircase is concerning. Hope there are no structural issues to cause this.

Wow. Nicely composed video.

You’d have to sell a lot of beer to build a home like that but even more to afford restoring it. It’s a shame it was allowed to decline.

My heart sank at first, but then was happy to see the mansion will survive.

.you did not present the years or cause of decay. It appears that incriminate electrical lines were added along walls (not restoration) w/the peeling paint from not being heated (for a length of time). Also, floor surfaces are uneven at the plank edges indicating a moisture problem. The world was moving so quickly from the late 1800's its understandable how these enormous mansions became obsolete for the next generation as interpreting and building a home is of that moment/era of time. By 1940, 84 years ago, these homes were totally out of demand/favor for most home buyers.... except "us" here today.

Stunningly gorgeous then, even among the decay of age, and just as stunning 😍 ✨️ now!! The entrance into the grand hall took my breath away and the floors were magnificent. The architecture is spectacular. Iam so glad that this house was one of the few lucky ladies to see restoration. Bringing such beauty back to life. Thanks for the peek then and now and always your photography really capture ageless beauty of these ladies❤❤❤

First ofnyour videos Ive seen. I wish you didnt do the fade-over effect. They make for a lot of time with both images being blurred. Id like to have seen more time to appreciate the images not blurred or moving.

So glad to hear that this beauty has been saved ❤

So grand so beautiful.

Why do we not build buildings like this anymore?

Thank you UrbanEye, Excellent job on getting the black/white before pictures, then vacant then now. Yeah proud to see mansion is on Register & even better in use. Love, the figures on the porch, even better the beauty of the mansion. Just do not understand wonder why they built so massive. The upkeep, wow....

She is grand & gorgeous! How I wish I could restore all of them! Awesome video as always! 👍👍❤️🤘✊

Thanks for sharing this video with me i really enjoyed it and God Bless.

What is this mansion being used for now?

So thankful someone saw her magnificent beauty within and out!

The attention to detail this mansion has both inside and out are just stunning! It certainly spoke to the wealth of the family. I am happy to see that it has a new life.

Magnificent. I hope when the refurbishments are complete, that they keep the property faithful to it's historical interior as much as is possible given the future plans for the old girl. What a stunning beauty.

It's amazing how builders get by with building such flimsy houses these days, many will not last 30 years before they start to fall apart.

Thank God that somebody recognizes old beauty and personality! Wish we could save them all. Thanks for sharing with us!!!

What a sign of the times.

I wouldve loved to live in a house like this. Beautiful place. Respect must be given to history.

Thank you so much for showing us another grand old lady.

Wondering who owns this beautiful place lost in time? The iron railing is cular.specta

Reminds me of "The Magnificent Ambersons".

I see Alex left it the way he bought it which explains the deterioration. But overall it's not that bad off.

I have been in it and it is gorgeous. Decaying is a strong word for it. The structure, bones, and all the appointments al in great shape ( floors, mantles, doors, stairway). Wall need resurfacing and painting. Only hope who buys it does not divide it up and modernize it. Would prefer it remain in its current state.

this home needs to be restored to its former glory

You always find the most beautiful abandoned properties. I appreciate the history that you put in the description and before and after photos. Is this mansion in an affluent neighborhood as there seems to be other large buildings surrounding it? Thanks for the tour.

It looks like someone planned to restore by taking all the furniture to a different place. Then replaster and paper the hallways. LOVE the gold bedroom!!!! Then paper the rest of the rooms Floors look good. Exteriors look great, they can wait. Would love to live there. Great library. Mine is "scattered" on all the walls, but a single room would be lovely. I'm a tad old to take this on. Still working on a 1940s building for 30 years. Neverending. Won't leave 30yrs of garden tho.

The old gal is still elegant and beautiful.
