    I’ve so enjoyed your channel. I live in WA. My son attended North Bennett Street school in Boston. A craftsmanship college established close to 150 years ago. One of his instructors was almost 100 years old. My son was able to build a serpentine Bombay chest. All crafted as one would have built it in the 17th century. We have lost so much skill over the centuries. The overall plan to dumb us down. I’ve always been fascinated with old world architecture. Keep up the great work. When Jesus Christ returns, I’m praying He brings us the truth of exactly what has happened and we can kick back and watch in real time movies the construction of these magnificent structures! 👍🤗

    The floors are so much taller in the old-world structures. Why would a town decide to build much larger than they would otherwise need? and multiply this across the entire country. It's crystal clear all these structures were found and used for an agenda.

      Exactly who were the people filling up these buildings? I believe that right at the end of their society the over population excuse or maybe there WERE loads of people and then their civilisation ended. At the END of their civilisation they stole all the children and put the adults in asylum or the catacombs. When the disaster was over THEY came out from underground with the stolen children so that the children could work in the factories and chimney etc and repopulate the earth…… whilst they took up the large houses and buildings and turned them into banks, schools government buildings etc “they” were the “authorities” school masters etc and the children were all in the work houses and orphanages (until they grew up and started having families of their own.. birth of the working class) question is why can’t “they” have their own children? Maybe the children were ideal for a restart because at some point they taught the children to read so one generation would be able to read and their mother couldn’t..,,. Hence the ease of narrative change …….

    Erie, Pa has existed since 1795, and it pisses me off that more than half of its history, buildings and businesses have been torn down long before I was born (1965).

    I ended my family's fourth generation of masonry. You are chosen by someone to learn the tradition. It takes some years to gain the knowledge of even the ground/earth you're working on. At one time we made our own footings. I wound up in Florida only doing it once here. I used one thousand brick to lay 300 over it. We have the only job where once we've done it right it never comes down or need any repairs. I was always complaining about carpenters not letting me do my job right.
    To build Old buildings you bet they had saws that we imagine they used or they can't do the job. Looking at the masonry of those buildings gives me wonder, awe and more questions. I wouldn't know how to start a bid on the smallest of them. None of these jobs are profitable because of design today.

    I'd like you to do a video on Painesville Ohio. It's halfway between Erie and Cleveland. It's the same story. There were a great many mansions in painesville and a lot of history. The courthouse and the two churches in the downtown both have large statues in front of the courthouse and a obelisk in the center of the park. The two large churches with steeples also have the original pipe organs in them. Painesville also has the college that are obviously old world buildings. Downtown was changed many times. Most of the buildings have been torn down. there used to be a trolley system going through town. The original bridge across the Grand River was a covered bridge next to a large flour Mill that is no longer there. They changed the bridge twice and finally took out the damn that was underneath it. There are several very old cemeteries on different ends of town. One of the cemeteries next to the river has very old mausoleums and some fantastic old tombstones. The dates only go back to the 1850s. Painesville is just like Cleveland and Erie. The original roads were all bricks. All the schools were multi-story brick buildings.

    The Comet coaster was built in the 1950's. Paul Nelson worked on it as a young teen. He worked many summers for free with the understanding that he would eventually be the owner. Paul went to university and came back to work with the owner to be trained as a park manager. Paul passed last year at age 89 and was still actively involved in Waldameer's daily operations. His son-in-law is now the general manager. The park is actually owned by PNC Bank that took ownership of Marine Bank who took ownership of the Trolley company assets when they went bankrupt. There is a book that gives the entire history of Waldameer published in 2013.

One of the floors in the center is the Masonic meeting hall. The LL is the Camelot Room dining hall where people rent it for wedding receptions and such.

      @johnbrice7868 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Up until the 1980's the downtown area was heated by a distributed steam system. The steam was generated by the electric plant that was located at the bottom of State Street (current Maritime Museum). The steam went through underground pipes to a headstand in each building. The headstand was a valve that controlled how much steam was let into the building. So the buildings did not need any type of furnaces just radiators and the pipes that connected them.

    I spent some months in the small town of Girouxville, Alberta where I once stayed in a rather large priest college (don't know the proper term). It was so much larger than it should have been to make sense to me. The town was less than 1000 and far from any major cities. I didn't dwell on it at the time, but I have to wonder about the back story. It had long since been abandoned as a college and was maintained by a priest who ran the place alone. He would occasionally rent out the odd (dorm?) rooms to random men like myself and one other man.. It was bizarre, to be so few at night in the dark, in a building that must have housed hundreds. Probably dates from the turn of the century.

    Hey there , new subscriber, love the channel! I am from the area, lived in Buffalo, family in Jamestown and Erie PA and Harrisburg PA. I think thar struck me even as a kid is how many structures, buildings, roads, factories and the like, are made of brick. You find bricks being used in all these type towns nation wide, all looking basically the same architecturally. If you take a step back, the question i have is where the heck are all these bricks coming from thats supplying the buildouts of all these cities nation wide at the same time??? I mean there has to be trillions and trillions of bricks being used. Where is/are this mega brick factory or factories??

      Everywhere!... Haha is it that hard to understand that things can change and disappear and be forgotten about in only 100-150 years? Look up the black family. I think somewhere in the south or maybe Kansas area.. or states near.. that continue to manufacture bricks "the old fashioned way". Leading the way is a grandfather who refuses to stop doing it . And more so important because he is aware he is the last or one of the last that hand makes bricks for sale in America... I saw a long video on this I believe on TH-cam. If you search I'm sure you can find what I'm referencing.. but basically it was done in crude outdoor ovens. Almost something like massive pizza ovens out in fields or something. Atleast from what I can recall... And the heating of the bricks was super critical and crucial. And took like a day or two and required a man or few to stay on sight and feed the fire and monitor things constantly. Then after the process finished only would you find out if you basically had junk bricks or the best bricks found on earth. But likely often days could be wasted and materials wasted to only have to start over...

      @@MK-cw4gw you guys don't seem to understand.... There was no mass production ANYthing years ago.... Each city, neighborhood, region... Took care of its own extreme local needs. Talking blocks and miles instead of countries and continents... There had to be a grocery store on almost every other block, schools every 1/4 mile, fire stations every few blocks, ice houses, delivery services for any and all with horse and wagon, carriage routes, then later train, trolley and canal... People only ate what food was available in that time of year in the local area they lived... Like if you had never been to Florida you likely had never eaten an orange, maybe didn't even know what they were OR had had one once as a very very special treat as a Christmas present... Each town had a factory that made leather, then one they sold the leather to and they made shoes, then factories that made clothes, others who made glass bottles and also glass was returned to them to be melted down and re blown, there were boarding houses which was sorta like a bed and breakfast but just at a random person's house who needed extra money cause maybe their husband died. And people could rent rooms and meet in the dinning room with others for meals, for a price.. and may stay a few days... Maybe 20 years... Every person alive had many skills and could always find a job helping someone else. Even if it was just for a tiny bit of food or a place to sleep... If that's what you got, you felt great full! Everyone was super socially adapted at speaking to others and being polite and fair. And a big big thing no one seems to speak of. The ethnic groups that had come to America were by and large still very separated. Irish only lived in neighborhoods with Irish, blacks with blacks, Italians with Italians... And then further split amongst themselves again based on what religion they were and then what denomination or sect. And probably 80-90% went to church atleast a couple times monthly. By not going it was often taken as disrespect from the community you belong to. Also people belong to social clubs, political associations, neighborhood watches and gangs, clubs.... And people constantly were attending get togethers, funerals, family reunions, parades, circuses.... Sports existed but was mostly a thing for children...
      Things ethnic groups all competed with each other. And mostly each city was known by the ethnic group who had the most power, population, neighborhood size, and finally THE GRANDEST BUILDINGS AND AMINNATIES! A big factor never really discussed I think today is this. This is why people wanted to create such grand buildings. They were trying to establish themselves to be important enough to have such things. And make an impression that there town was "big time". This is how that style architecture spread to big and small towns in the whole country. It was the style and you had to have such things or appear irrelevant and poor and backward.... As well the people had no distractions. They spent all day near everyday working very hard. No set hours, no set lunch breaks, no unions or labor laws, no welfare or food stamps.... They had to push and push and push.... Or die.... Unless they were lucky to have important friends or large strong families to help...
      I knew many folks born in the late 1800's and early 1900's. My grandfather who raised me born in 1909. And let me tell you... The people from that age were superman compared to what we could call our best today... And make the average of today appear physically and mentally defective... They were 10x stronger, smarter, wiser, more in tune, able to navigate through problems and come out like gold... We are so de-evolved now only a few generations later. And clueless of our histories. Even family histories. That we seriously are now having theories like this be formed!? It's crazy.... You know why now it's being talked about all of a sudden and not 20-40 years ago.... Cause some of the people who were actually there to tell y'all your nuts were still alive.... Now being gone and forgotten and then add 10 years people today were never met a human born in 1898 can get on TH-cam and claim a bunch of idiocy...

    12:22 I can't shake it off of how identical these temples look to the ruins of roman and greek temples (also the one that stood in the middle of Birmingham, England, btw). are the (what we are told are) roman and greek temples of the mediterranean actually ruins of some old reset of our own civilization? ruins of cities of some ancient reset of our civilization that surpassed the technological level of what we have today, left standing for either some macabre memorial reasons or for the building material for this false roman and greek temple builders fairytale, or for both.

      Pffft... eVERY town , village, city and crossroads in America had all of the same. look at the city 1/4 the size of Erie that I live. Near by. Olean NY.... Quite similar. With slightly smaller scale. Of course 85% has been now destroyed.
      This whole idea that these are MUCH older and we don't know some secret past... That's b.s. ALTHOUGH. I fully admit we have and ARE manipulated and lead to remember things by approved agendas. That much of the true reality of things lived and experienced by people while in its current state, will always be much more fruitfull and full than anything that is wrote in history books.
      Memory,trends, greed, ignorance and stupidity can never be underestimated.

      When Martin Liedke started talking about mud floods years ago I could see all over my town buried buildings. But I did know there was a massive flood of French Creek that flooded downtown Erie and caused the building of the massive underground tunnel that creek now feeds into.

    The manufacturers I tried finding in the area (but in a lot of areas in the u.s.) was glass making, brick making and silk making. There had to have been steel for trains. They wore lace dresses so that material had to have been widely used. It’s a shame we can’t know the culture of these people and families, stories of their lives, etc.

      Erie was a heavy manufacturer center. In the 1890's more boilers were made in Erie than any other place in the world. Erie also manufactured more small steam horsepower engines in the world. Erie also manufactured steam shovels and later and still does manufacture locomotives. In addition Erie had the world's largest lithograph presses and just about every 1890's era circus poster was printed in Erie. Erie was settled first by the Irish, then lots and lots of Germans then the eastern Europeans, Slavs, Check's, Polish and then the Italians. Erie is very, very, very, Catholic. There were literally dozens and dozens of parishes and the nuns controlled numerous High Schools, and one College (Mercyhurst). Erie was known as a hard drinking city (the drink Boilmaker (a beer with a shot) was invented and named in Erie. Erie in 1890 was a hardworking, physical town, whose population was mostly immigrants with a social life built around their local Catholic Parish.

    When it comes to the issue of such structures being torn down and built over after what appears to be a surprisingly short amount of time standing, it might be appropriate to consider that the aspect of cold business tradition may be have been at play there. That is to say, new owners, jealous of the previous ones and builders wished to make their own mark on the area, and if they deemed it necessary to scrap the entire structure in order to “imprint” their presence and “ownership signature”, they decided that so be it. Perhaps. Think Pharaohs of old (at least as far as we’re told) who would frequently attempt to make their mark on the greater domain’s history by “chiseling over” their predecessors’ works. Again…perhaps.🤷🏻

    It keeps popping into my mind that the term "gold rush" may very well have been just that. A rush to remove the streets of gold (on Earth as it is in Heaven) leaving behind mud streets not matching the architecture. Even the buildings would have been adorned with gold and silver. Possibly jewels incorporated into the decor. The first to get their hands on the treasures would be millionaires and billionaires. I believe the un explainable structures were either built by Angels or spoken into existence by God Almighty. Not by human hands at all.
