All of these are such beautiful houses. I love it. In Galveston Texas has beautiful Greek revival Victorian and Edwardian houses. but one of my favorite houses is the Menard house one of the oldest houses on the island
Hi Thank you for 1st and 2nd parts. I live in a large 1883 Victorian in Springfield Ma, it's said this area has the most Victorians in one neighborhood in the country. With that said I dont know if you would be interested in showing our area... its sketchy a word you used in part 2. The spooky house used in the movie - Reincarnation of Peter Prowd...back in the 1970's is here in this historic neighborhood, but unfortunately it doesn't look to great. This area was where the wealthy of Spfld lived 100 plus years ago. There was a great deal of wealth here back then.
@James Parciak---Everybody should see this GREAT movie you mentioned---The Reincarnation of Peter Proud! It is available on TH-cam, I've watched it again a few years ago. I too deeply appreciate Victorian Era homes, particularly many of George Franklin Barber's designs and also other architects of the period. Congratulations to you on living in your Victorian home! The exteriors and interiors of these homes can be quite spectacular! I am interested in purchasing one in the next few years.
Thank you for bringing Springfield to our attention. If in the future we round up enough neighborhoods for a part 3, then we can certainly include it. We also look forward to watching The Reincarnation of Peter Proud soon. It appears to be a great movie!
Absolutely beautiful 😍..... But yall need to visit historic oakwood Raleigh NC actually there's several historical neighborhoods near downtown the oakwood area is more associated with the victorian styles..... But by all means keep all the historic House video's coming ❤
I grew up in Pembroke Ontario Canada...old logging town along the Ottawa River....lots of money in the old days ...you can't go more than 2 or 3 houses before you hit a large Brick Victorian house now they're all converted into appartments ....the town has has realy gone down since ....
You evidently have never visited Buffalo, NY. The neighborhoods of North Buffalo, including Allentown, Irving Park, Richmond, Symphony Circle, Delaware district including Millionnaire's Row, Riverfront/Peace Bridge, Old West Side, Parkside (Frank Lloyd Wright's Darwin Martin estate,) Linwood Ave and the renowned Elmwood Village district are home to hundreds of beautifully maintained Victorian homes ranging from quaint workmen's cottages to grand painted ladies to stately townhome rowhouses and magnificent brick and stone victorian mansions. The neighborhoods include National Historic sites, Designated historic districts, Forest Lawn Cemetery, the Frederick Law Olmsted designed Delaware Park and it's system of parkways, as well as Buffalo's museum district including HH Richardson's massive Victorian Gothic Buffalo Psychiatric Hospital (now a hotel) and thecrenowned Albright-Knox+Gundlach Art Museum. Buffalo's famous garden walk (the nation's first and largest) is held in the neighborhoods of North Buffalo every July. Architecture buffs stay for Buffalo's collection of homes, churches, public realm and private commercial architecture.... unsurpassed among mid-sized American cities.
Yeah! You say fancy Schmancy, and I say we need a return to the fancy home. How else do you distinguish between houses and neighborhoods? You can't go back in time, we need to restore the exteriors and many of the interiors of these Victorians. I don't want to model exactly like anything. I like to draw from the best use from the past in a collage. I want to see a fancy house with the optimal floorplan for modern living practicality and entertainment. It's not a fancy house if you don't have space for entertainment. You ought host a party, should be common expression for person with a fancy house. These Victorians need to be presevered as homes for living. I'm thinking very successful doctor with investments in guilds, stocks, bonds (?), 401k and art with these Victorians. They can be attached to off shore wind or field solar. The Oak Bluffs have the most unique charm. I like the row house approach in St. Louis on Lafayette Square. They'd be 5 stories, need more aesthetical ornamentation, be of stone or marble, and you may paint, but you need to know what you are doing when you paint stone, and the Mansard roof is perfect because row houses like these are probably attached to solar production just outside the EIC. I just like fancy houses, it's one of my favorite things about the Victorians.
Thank you. Couldn’t agree more. All remaining Victorians should be updated and occupied. Not one more of these gems should be allowed to fall into disrepair or fall victim to the wrecking ball.
...For entertaining? Just add on a detailed large space that still holds true to some details added, not hard,as wrought iron is great for detailing and maybe a fountain and some plush pieces of furniture and a few tables, maybe more like two decorative columns around a pool and a recreation area, and can convert two beautiful tall ceiling rooms to be a home theater.❤

Thank you. Sadly, that’s the case for many Victorian towns.
