The magnificent Arch hidden behind an Autobody Shop, covered in graffiti, broke my old-fashioned heart - wish I hadn't seen it ... Delusions of Vanished Grandeur
One would never have guessed these magnificent mansions ever existed. The exquisite details of each home are certainly not found today. It would have been so nice to see these nostalgic homes preserved. 😞
They should have saved everyone of them! They could have been our NEWPORT with millions of paying visitors yearly to support them. I know I am not the only one who finds the destruction of them deplorable.
Absolutely criminal to demolish those works of brililant architecture. At least now we have historical societies that have enough influence to save some. At the very least, the shells could have remained and the interiors repurposed for multi family or multi use. Very good video from historical and informational standpoints.
I live on Riverside Drive and it’s still a beautiful area in upper Manhattan. The Hudson River has been built up and there are soccer fields, handball courts a basketball court etc. it’s a great place to take your family for a picnic or to go fishing. The view of the George Washington Bridge is amazing. Also the view across the river of New Jersey is pretty spectacular. The buildings are beautiful and the tree lined streets gives the impression of days gone by. It would be nice if some of these buildings could have been restored and still existed. Washington Heights (157th Street and Broadway) went from Cocaine central to a diverse neighborhood that still has the vibe of being in the Dominican Republic. On a hot summer day you hear Spanish Music and people dancing, vendors selling their wares and amazing Spanish food. It’s a great place to visit if you’re ever in New York City. Boy how times change. Thanks for sharing. Be well.
My African paternal Grandmother who was born in 1908 In Macon Bibb County Georgia 31201 and Died in Macon Bibb County Georgia in 2001, Relocated to Harlem New York City in 1931 and lived with an African American Mullatoo Woman who was from Brunswick Georgia. The Woman from Burnswick Georgia was the Personal Maid and Companion to the Famous Jewish Female Ziefield Follies Vaudervile Starr Fannie Bryce. My grandmother often mentioned that there were remanents of the Gilded Age Mansions were standing on Fifth ave and Riverside Drive When She Arrived in New York in 1932; However the Redeveloped process had become when she arrive in Manhattan with the construct of the Apartment Buildings. Thanks for the video.
Me and my Mom was just driving over on the Beautiful Riverside Drive yesterday, it’s so peaceful and scenic views…A very nice stretch of beauty..Expensive..
Go to Boston. To commonwealth Avenue. Amazing how all those buildings and housing are preserved protected and maintained. Also Newbury st. I lived on Melrose st. For 10 years and the streets and street lamps are well maintained. It is like going back in time. Small narrow streets. Maybe Boston has more money to protect the past. Or better land mark law. The south end also maintained and protected alot of its architecture.
You’re absolutely right about Boston. The lack of pathetic money hungry developers who destroy everything in Nyc don’t seem to reign supreme over those who treasure history over there. Also it’s the Nyc layout and the tightness of space that dooms itself. Consider ur city lucky. Especially in baseball/basketball lol
You are right that no one features these forgotten and lost mansions. I understand how they became "white elephants" that were no longer practical or affordable in upkeep, but the new buildings that replaced them certainly are boring and lack character. Great video. Very informative.
such a great loss to architecture. I noticed the first three apartment buildings were basically the same cookie cutter plan of each other . =/ Excellent history. Thank you for including the map. That was much appreciated. It's sad that what ever remains has been defaced.
Washington Heights was a very elegant and revived neighborhood before urban decline of the 70s. Not the Heights that Lin Miranda knew (who was from Inwoid).
I can't get over how crazy these houses looked amongst all the buildings around them. The houses are simply stunning but they never seemed to blend in with their surroundings... as if they were always going to be temporary.
I really enjoyed seeing NYC estates with names attached that were NOT Vanderbilt or Astor! These Riverside mansions were built much earlier in many cases than those on 5th Avenue which seemed built in the 80's whereas many of these were built in the 50's. I guess the 'Castle' look was very popular then!
Well finally a video that explains those massive stone walls under the buildings along the riverside highway. I’m a native New Yorker and even I didn’t understand why traveling by there feels like passing through Renaissance history.
It really did. Even reading your last line took me back (thank you 💝) to when i was a kid growing up passing by the wall, running my hands across it thinking. Wow this was once something magnificent ✨💕✨ oh how I miss NYC ❤ it’s just not the same.
😊 I lived at 894 Riverside Drive for many years! The topography and the scenery is amazing. Loved looking at the Hudson River on my daily walks. Now, I live in Troy, NY, near the Hudson and Mohawk Rivers. Sad, that so many mansions were torn down! You brought back many good memories. ❤
Great video. Fantastic job. 😊. Excellent narration. Grew up in long island. Lived in forest hills for 9 years. Lived in boston 10 years. Appreciate architecture and history. This was informative and 😔 sad. All those beautiful mansions were torn down for profit. But I guess that is the way the world works. Sad 😔. Wish we could preserve more beautiful mansions and buildings. Once I wrote something called departure. A beautiful old building being replaced with a new one. And the same men that put it together now have to tear it down. Departure. 😢😢😢😢. Nice video.
Well - homes for a lot of prople, but what nasty, depressing looking buildings were put up in the place of the mansions. I think that a lot of that sort of demolition did not happen so much in major cities in Europe, which is why NYC is a pretty depressing place full of dreary blocks with no character, and Paris is Paris !!!
@veronicaroach3667 I have to disagree, New York is NOT dreary and depressing. Everyday I walk the streets in New York I see it's history/ strength/ diversity/ energy/ and beauty.
All the mansions were more beautiful than their replacement apartment buildings... only the ones that gave way to Fort Tryon Park saw something better in its place
Fabulous , I knew that Riverside Dr. is somewhat important right by the Hudson Bay. What not to like it's a perfect settings for a private residence . To bad nothing lasts in this world and NYC is continuesly changing. I enjoy the area and live by Riverside 30 years +
Reminds me of what they still do in LA - buy gorgeous homes with interesting histories just to gut them or tear them down. Lots of people have more money than sense.
Yes but how many apartments could have been done though? Compare with the high rises buildings Clearly those villas were beautiful but replaced by “progress “
What an amazing time for Architecture that was. Sad to see such magnificent structures demolished so prematurely. The expense of such creations to build and maintain could put a wealthy person into the poor house. Thank you for sharing these glorious memories of the past, and its rich history of wealth.
Love the mansions and their history. I particularly liked the Elizabeth Clark mansion, as her family now owns most of Cooperstown NY in central Upstate. Strong line of strong women, as Jane Clark is in Cooperstown.
I think they ALL should have been preserved. It's a shame that none of the Gilded Age mansions of NYC survive. And to be replaced by ugly apartment blocks! Sad. As much as I love Manhattan, their attitude toward preserving the past leaves much to be desired.
I lived between West End Avenue & Riverside Drive for over 10 years. I know the monument at the foot of West 100 street very well. I jogged in Riverside Park. I had no Idea of the storied history. Large apartment buildings had replaced all the mansions mentioned here. What a loss. Great neighborhood though. Fond memories.
All these mansions were so gorgeous but so close to each other, even knowing that these mansions had more space. I would def choose to spend my wealth in my privacy
Hello; I was born and raised at 740 Riverside Drive, Circa, 1962. I know some of the mansions, that you are speak. This is a nice, surprise video. All the best Shaun 🦉 of NYC 🎉
Paterno was the sharpest builder of the lot. That enormous retaining wall and platform (taller than the house) wasn't built for his estate. That was built for when he knew the city would reach that area and he would replace the house with apartments he could finally rent. The man was a realist.
@@violetblue4317 -You mean accent on the first syllable? I forgot to use a phrase I learned in grad school. Paterno's was the only house of the lot that seemed to recognize the value of using the property for its "highest and best use" (available at the time). The sumptuous architectural detail in the surviving apartment buildings was/is as well done as the older mansions. It even looks like it was much better than the former house. They certainly cost more than all the "estate" buildings on the platform. I'll bet he didn't spend more on the house and stable than to make a suitably dignified home for a person of his wealth. If he had done anything less people might have thought he was nuts. Remember Edith's Wharton's Mrs. Manson Mingot in "Age of Innocence ". She was considered "very unusual" simply for building a town house so far about the existing development of the time.
The old arch is actually on Broadway and 193st and Broadway, not 216st. The mansion stood on what is now Bennet avenue. Fort Tryon park and Riverside park were places we grew up playing and hanging out as teenagers. Although the nearby schools never mentioned a word of the castles that once existed, if you explore enough and sneak over fences we definitely got the idea that something really big once stood there from certain clues in the layout of the street grid and blocked off areas with different types of really heavy looking discarded stone that matched nothing in the areas nearby. Growing up in Washington Heights was so much fun. Just too bad they should leave markers with photos of these amazing homes on the location that now stand there so everyone can know the history.
They should not have been so quick in demolishing such beautiful homes! So much history gone! And in its place ugly appartment buildings! Such a shame!
Great! Riverside Drive is still full of nice housing---This year the Kips Bay Boys club Decorator Show house had one on the corner of 109th Street, used to belong to a turn of the century actress--- I was surprised how thin the house was, butted up against the next house to the south, but still certainly a mansion.
Thanks for posting this New York City history. Because I am from here New York City and know where all these landmarks are. They were all beautiful places at the time but so many are not kept up.
My great-great grandfather lived at 155 Riverside Drive in a fancy-schmancy apartment building in the late teens-twenties, which probably replaced some beautiful old-timey estate. While I enjoyed the video, it’s really depressing to see what was and the sometimes ugly buildings that replaced them.
Sad. Now they’re literally sinking into the harbor from tearing these dwellings down And replacing them with towers no one wants to live in. In Jacksonville Fl we have a area of town we call Riverside. They are the most beautiful pieces of property in all of north Florida I think. I imagine they got inspiration for the name from these beautiful mansions.
Can you imagine the tourism these mansions would have attracted if they still remained. Such a shame that they’re gone.

Urban decline.
Same here. 😢
I so agree! It was so sad.
One would never have guessed these magnificent mansions ever existed. The exquisite details of each home are certainly not found today. It would have been so nice to see these nostalgic homes preserved. 😞
Well said.
I wish this mansion was still available. The beauty of Rich Richest. The details of each rooms. Probably was breathtaking!
They should have saved everyone of them! They could have been our NEWPORT with millions of paying visitors yearly to support them. I know I am not the only one who finds the destruction of them deplorable.

That's so sad to see that arch sadly standing there bereft of its former glory. Overlooking the sad state of the world 😢 ....
I made a trip there just to see it when I lived in NYC.
They need to open up the arch

Great show. Loved it thank you
Glad you enjoyed it. Thank you.
Unbelievable that they destroyed the magnificent homes
I wish they had incorporated the old mansions into the new apt bldgs 😔
So sad to see such waste and loss of beautiful buildings
Amazing history Manhattan I love it so much!
😮😢 ¡cuánto desperdicio! Gracias por el video, muy bonito e interesante ❤

All this money spent on beautiful homes just to be torn down. So upsetting. They should of just made them into apartments and kept the structures.

There are few that still do exist
Had to make way for diversity
There are still some lovely buildings on Riverside Drive which overlook the Hudson River. Many have wood burning fireplaces.
Born and raised 71st and B'day one block from Riverside Dr. and the park. Beautiful area. Go North to the 200 Street area, Terrible.

Hi thank you great news, I will do a walk up there one day soon.
Fascinating 🎉
So glad I fled the city. Suburban life is very good.

These kinds of structures could last for centuries in Europe, but in America only for a few decades.

One of my favorite places in NY was the Riverside Park.
I believe It is a great place to live in NY.
I always wondered how did such beautiful views become the projects? It’s so sad to see the beauty that was lost 😢
It shame we cannot more preseve our City past compare cities who just as old New York
Anyone who says they wouldn’t want to be that rich and live in a home like those is lying!!!🤔🤔🤔
I would love to be rich but no desire for a home like that. I like small and manageable. I’d rather have an average sized home on tons of land 😄
exactly
Amazing apartments. Discussing apartments. How could you compare the two as beautiful?
Pls do historical mansions of Milwaukee Wisconsin
Will add it to our list. Thank you.
I loved all of them.
WOW!!!💕💕💕

Verrry rare OR cannot see these styles of beauties now
Please do a video on the historical Estates of LakeGeneva Wisconsin
Wow really
Thank you.
You're welcome!
Never knew of these mansions on the Upper West Side before it's been demolished of the start of the roaring twenties
BEAUTIFUL 🤩 yes, very very sad 😢 for them to be demolished & burnt. Also to see graffiti on the remains of standing arch, where the auto shop is now.
That final one was sad. I can figure not one person in that neighborhood knows a single thing about how glorious that arch once was.
I wish they were all still there!
what a travesty to knock down such gorgeous mansions.
Fascinating and sad also.
Wow ok soo many of these mansions were converted to Buildings & parks
Some of my professors live there it is mostly Columbia University own now.
Thanks for posting this New York City history. Because I am from here New York City and know where all these landmarks are. They were all beautiful places at the time but so many are not kept up.

FANCY Schmancy Indeed, gentlemen within!
Wow all
They should’ve ALL been preserved!!!!
That’s where I grew up and I always wondered how some of the buildings got their names.
Smart move for the one guy to have bought the house next door in anticipation for new development
I want to see the photos of them being built.
What about the house at the northeast corner at Riverside Drive and 107th Street?
1)Charles M Schwab House.
2)Cyrus Clark Mansion.
3)Elizabeth Clark House.
4)John H Matthews House.
5)Doelger Mansion.
6)Samuel G Bayne Mansions.
7)Carrigan Mansion.
8)Paterno Castle.
9)Libby Castle.
10)Tryon Hall.
11)Seaman Drake Estate.
I grew up I in wood and played in ft Tryon park
I think it's horrid that they were demolished
Video recap: developers suck. The end.
Schwab was born poor, worked his way up to be CEO of Bethlehem Steel but died poor.
From the wonderful ancient buildings , to the horrible modern buildings of today !
Sad. Now they’re literally sinking into the harbor from tearing these dwellings down And replacing them with towers no one wants to live in. In Jacksonville Fl we have a area of town we call Riverside. They are the most beautiful pieces of property in all of north Florida I think. I imagine they got inspiration for the name from these beautiful mansions.
If it wasn't for Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis we would have lost a lot more of these historical structures.
14:30 - That's sad.
They all should have been preserved
I live on riverside drive I am the great I am in me loves our ancestors 😊
