Drone Tour: Neighborhood Of Castles And Mansions (Durand, Hamilton Ont)

South Durand is home to one of the best and most architecturally diverse collections of pre-war residential architecture in Canada. Constructed from the 1850's to the 1930's, a time when the revival styles of architecture were in fashion and Hamilton's economy was booming, the owners and architects who built here had the freedom to express themselves through architecture. Owners could choose a style that best expressed their heritage or financial status and they had the means to build on an ambitious scale with quality materials and talented craftsmen. This resulted in homes that are excellent examples of an amazing array of architectural styles; Gothic Revival, Tudor Revival, Classical Revival and many that combine multiple architectural styles or experiment with new ones in a spirit of innovation and one up-man-ship that one still feels walking in the neighbourhood today.

Fantastic drone footage! Beautiful neighborhood on a gorgeous spring day! So many amazing homes & mansions. Terry, check out Queens Park area in New Westminster, BC. Many Heritage homes (Craftsman, Victorian, etc). 🥰

Very cool Terry! It's funny to see those MASSIVE homes so close together, I'd rather have a small house with land.

At 3:11 and to the south of Ravenscliffe Castle is the red roofed house that must be owned by a skylight manufacturer. 15 apparently has the largest great room. Many historic gems in the neighbourhood, and not on this street alone.

It would be awesome if you could explore the inside ❤

[@seanwebb605]

Drones would knock over everything inside the house.

[@cindie-td3yb]

Must be where all the judges and lawyers and doctors live

Beautiful! But area is so crowded! Castle homes like those would be nicer on a bit more property 🤩

I believe the original owner of Ravenscliffe Castle also owned the land south of that house (the rest of Ravenscliffe Ave) but eventually sold it to developers. Urban sprawl strikes again.
