    Please, do help nashville rewrite its history, i hear stuff all the time now and just rolls my eyes. NASHVIILE IS ABOUT MUSIC, LIQUIOR, SPORTS AND HIGH PRICED HOOKERS, AND GUNS ... there, thats what has happened in 15 years, deeply in debt, never had debt before, it had low taxes, utilites and costs of living in 15 years its quadrupled and in in some cases more than quadrupled. Very few locals can go "enjoy" the new amenities and its dangerous now. They just pay the high taxes to fund it all.

    15:50 this park sits on one of the many natural springs, it had a water system to grow that grass, the whole park was cultivated by a resident german botanist since before the civil war

    @6:02 that building has Hooters on the corner and The Beer Cellar down stairs. Even the basement has elaborate stone work and feels way too nice.

    Nashville is a riverboar town, lock 1 is north of town near the original settlement by the Presbyterians... THE LOCKS (5 in nashville alone) WERE NEEDED TO KEEP THE RIVER UP because of the drought. those colums are part of the pyramid colums copied from the INTERIOR OF the dowtown Presbyterians church which holds a gianormus pipeorgan. Before the civil war, nashville had public school, it had a symphony... and oprea house ... in 1925 the blue crusted hated the idea of hillbilly music, so they, hillbillies, played off the snobbery and called their radio show, THE GRAND OLE OPRY ... it angered the crusted more. Athens as in education, music as in orchestral and the fisk jubelee singers, where the coinage of "music city" came from after the fisk singers performed the queen of england called nashville "music city." It stuck. So did the athens of the douth because nashville had all kinds of colleges and tech schools since before the civil war. There were lots of manions in nashville, lots. And there wascacgisnt castle with everything midevil that goes with it. There were a lot of BRITISH and new yorkers in music city long before the civil war, the castle theme is just now dying out. COTTON AND TOBACCO. Adelicia, you showed her front yard, had her own zoo, most of the summer, she lived at her mansion in nyc.
    THE RYMAN has a phyics of sound like the us capitol rotunda in DC. But the perfect wood makes it a perfect place for music, and broadway shows. NO MICROPHONES NEEDED. Nashville has a theatre history that pre dates the civil war. I remeber the sqaure around the courthouse before they tore all four sides of the beautiful buildings out. And the xmas day bomber took out the facdes you were pointing at on 2nd ave, we called it market street the food store of nashville went from broadway up and all the way around the courthouse. Nashville was full of truck farms and orchards and a lot of dairy farms. Middle TN had some of, if not the richest farm land in the entire north american contenient. It sets in one of the largest cave systems in the world from south central ky to north central Alabama. It was a region into itself. Beautiful. The area is full of hills which are old volcanic cinder thunder domes, and its chock full of meterorite craters, more than any state in the union. Its even spewed natrual tar pits and oil slicks inside the city limits. Back in jacksons days. Thanks for the pix.

    1:19 those are power poles
    The civil war ended with the battle of nashville, when the battle was over, there was only a few trees left standing, and that winter and for a few more people froze and starved to death. Nashville was union, it was the last state to suceed and first to reenter no "occupation " was needed but they occupied it untill 1877. Whenbthe riots went on, the city got invaded by the confederates, it wasca brutal occupation, the the union came and that occupation punished the city, then the battle of nashville finished it. The kkk was offically nailed in its coffin in nashville, it left capitol hill, marched out to the old union fort negly and they took off their sheets and disbanded.
    Adelica acklens home is, the belmont mansion, the arcade, the first mall was designed from french arcades in paris.

    Is there any info of natives seeing buildings through the usa before the migration started? Or before the slaughter of the indigenous people?

    • @oldworldex
      @oldworldex  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a great question to ask. I suspect the fact that our collective memory has been wiped would make it difficult to find much. It's worth the investigation! I was just listening to this and they touched on the same question re Australia: th-cam.com/video/p8WNlKDgCkQ/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=TartariaAustralia

    What you called "Riverwood" I believe is the Hermitage, home of President Andrew Jackson. It was supposed to have been built in 1835.

    Do you know what building that is at 5:22? I've seen it and I think it is a church now. Everything around it is different now...

    • @oldworldex
      @oldworldex  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      do you mean the one with the columns? I have it down as the public square and court house.

    • @mlmiller6
      @mlmiller6 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@oldworldex yep. That was the courthouse until they tore it down and rebuilt it in the "modern" style in 1937 from what I found. The original one we see @ 5:22 in your vid appears to have been built with red bricks from the photos I found. The one built in 1937 is still in use today.

    Cmon now… It’s not that hard to research Nashville’s history. Thin narrative or thin amount of effort put into actually reading up on it?
    Nashville began as a fur trading depot known as French Lick in 1717. Fort Nashborough was then settled in 1779 by James Robertson and named after the war hero, Francis Nash. It became a city in 1803 and then called Nashville. Before the Civil War, Nashville was one of the wealthiest cities in the South and was known for its iron production. Nashville was occupied by the Union Army for almost the entirety of the Civil War. Fisk University located in Nashville, is one of the first HBCU. They have a choir called the Fisk Jubilee Singers who have been known to travel all over the world performing for royalty and heads of state. Queen Victoria was so impressed by them, she said Nashville must be a Music City. That is the first instance of that nickname being used long before Country Music became popular.
