As a NYC native and one who attended boarding school there -- place your money elsewhere --- there is one road in and one road out -- it is a driving nightmare. Unless you are flying private -- don't bother -- as the whole jaunt is an exercise in frustration!
Many of the photos are of homes not in the Hamptons. Some of the stories as well. The Whitney estate in Old Westbury is only about 100 miles west of the Hamptons!
The fuck you think this is... HISTORY CHANNEL?!? No one is fact checking this shit. It's some Indian or Russian making this crap on a laptop in his basement using CHAT GPT.
At the 6:02 mark. Why is there a picture of the Bushes stating old money elite The Whitneys. This entire bottom picture is of the Bushes. Their estate Walker’s Point is in Kennebunkport, Maine.
If I had a penny for every time I heard “old money elite” I could probably afford a place in the Hamptons. Also, there’s more images of places other than the Hamptons (old NYC now demolished mansions, Newport RI, France, England, etc) than the Hamptons themselves. Other than that, nice enough video, but I would have preferred a closer look at a few selected properties, rather than a machine gun of unrelated photos and clips.
At 6:02 when you show the Astors, Vanderbilts and ‘Whitneys’, the picture of the Whitney family is literally the Bush family. I find this channel so interesting, but these mistakes are frequent on many of the videos.
Quogue rhymes with frog. Thats how it’s pronounced. This was a great historical look at the hamptons! I would have probably included Sag Harbor though - it was one of the most influential hamlets in building the hamptons due to the whaling industry.
Looks nice. I really think it would/could be nice to live there. But only if the circumstances are nice and great. I think about decent neighbors and intelligent people. I mean having rewarding exchanges is an important issue for me. Private living - and social connections of something we share and love. And "yes", there should be a good and FAST public transport connection to NYCity and to Boston.
Could this be an A. I. generated video . . . I have run into so many of these types of "incorrect compliations" of images tgat are not correct to the area they are supposed to be located in? Several people have made comments about the inaccuracies included in this "History Of The Hamptons?"
Francis Bell is my Dad's Great Aunt. Her husband was the heir to estate. I'm looking for old photography of The Estate. Maybe find a picture of them or of their home. I did find the picture of their Broadview home overlooking Gardiner's Bay. Dennistoun is listed as a fireman at his firehouse on his property in the 1930s.
It’s a cultural practice in the United States acquired in time though not necessarily over the number of generations as overseas and rarely connected to title. Positions of course but connections to titles are rare and only by happenstance of marriage. The cultural practices are based on noblesse oblige standards, social grace, education and philosophy.
Correct, please accept my apologies. I’d intended to type philanthropy when my autocorrect changed the word to philosophy. I only access social media through my iPhone as they’re hard to hack and cannot make edits to my post.
It’s an Americanism, as it were, to refer to rapid industrial accumulation of wealth as “old money” compared to some European families wealth that was earned over 1000 years.
It’s old in relative terms. After all, everything is relative. What seems old to an American may seem relatively new to a Brit. And what seems old to a Brit may seem relatively new to a Roman, Greek, Persian (Iranian), Egyptian, etc.
If you can't show an actual picture don't show random pictures of large homes. You showed The One, Los Angeles while you're talking about the Hamptons. WTF.
Robert Lyons Gardiner who was a member of the Surveyors party sent by King Georgelll.. claimed Gardiners Island and all the land from the end to the Manhatten island
A friend of mine owned a popular watering hole and discotheque during the 90’s into early 2000’s in Bridgehampton. Believe me the “moneyed elites” behavior was as bad as you’d expect from any drunken non-moneyed, non-elites. It’s an insular place and not nearly as interesting as the devotees and residents would have you believe.
I wonder if any of the potato farmers were Wiley enough to hang onto their land when the rich started moving in, and eventually got rich on real estate?
Many of the old English families who arrived in the mid 17th Century still own vast acres of farmland. They’ve selectively sold off parts for development and are indeed quite wealthy. The Halsey’s, Hallock’s, Young’s, Latham’s, Tuthill’s, Corwin’s, Warner’s, Mape’s, Well’s, Corey’s, Arnold’s-these families where puritans who sailed from England and are still very much present generations later in the 5 East End Townships comprising East Hampton, South Hampton, Shelter Island, Southold and Riverhead. The Connecticut Colony which was also called New Haven Colony controlled English Eastern Long Island. The Dutch controlled Western Long Island -Kings and Queens. Nassau was part of Queens until 1890s. When the British Sovereign decided he had enough of the Dutch he offered a solution. Britain will allow the Dutch to pledge their allegiance to the King and keep their businesses, farms and property. They could return home to The Netherlands safely if they wished. They quickly realized if they didn’t agree the British Navy would blow them to bits. New-York was born and Connecticut ceded Long Island and those ‘Hamptons’ to the Kings appointed Governor of New York.
Newport RI is not at all the Hamptons in any way. Separated by more than thirty miles of water, and along entirely different rail lines from NYC the Newport wealthy had little to do with the Hamptons. Only in the last few decades have the Uber Rich built structures attempting to rival the Newport ‘cottages’. And then there is the conflation that the Gold Coast of the north shore of Long Island is somehow the ‘Hamptons’. Each of these areas are unique and deserve their own individual histories told. To say that they are all somehow the Hamptons is a disservice to them.
Those generalities you claim as facts are grossly outdated! The Hamptons has been in year round operations for almost 2 decades. Yes we lose the crowed flux after Labor Day, but it’s far from “ghost town”. It’s a blessing to have a piece of the nonstop bustling Manhattan while having a weekend sanctuary with the cleanest beaches & bays, horse country, farms and nautical life. The restaurants and shops owned by locals and ex-pats from city form a respectful community just as heartfelt and genuine as any small town, but of course with that twist of luxury we Manhattanites work hard for. But one has to be positive and dream bigger to manifest having the best of both city and country beach life year round to know it only “sucks” to those who choose to hate on the place that has in fact been attracting international recognition for over a century…
i have no faith in the so called nice areas with two finger on each hand moviing twice, like at bobbit look at o.j.. I swear they all dont have real security.

Ok, i have to ask, why did they show a picture of Hampton Court Palace? It is 30 minutes outside London??!?????
A lot of videos are being made by AI's recently.
To show examples of the architecture being discussed and highlighted in the video.

The Whitney's Westbury house is no where NEAR the Hamptons!

It’s a mistake from our editor. Apologise for the confusion.

I agree with each and every word you said!!!!

Apologies for that.
Not only that but Vanderbilts house in idle hour is falling apart it’s all busted up and will be demolished in no and that’s very sad but true

When I think of the Hamptons, I think of three generations of money (and generations of Episcopalians).
Where I will live in the Hamptons in Jesus name, thank you God

A inaccurate mish mash indeed.
Wasnt Ferncliff in Rhinebeck NY?
Old money vs New 💰
They showed a lifeguard rescue boat from Seaside Heights NJ too. Lol
I’m not sure I’d call money that’s 100 - 150 years old “old money”. Maybe it means something different in the US

As in old world elites legacy money.
The old money days are long over.The WASPS are long gone.
I work in the Hampton it very nice.
It sure is!
Thank you for sharing a beautiful history.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@OldMoneyLovers You are welcome. I have family friends in New York. It is nice being there for the people and great food.
No. The $85M touted as the most expensive house in the US is wrong. It is a common price in Beverly Hills. Top end homes there are in the $200Ms.

How about the history of old-money families soon?
Tomorrow 👍

You either have taste or you don’t ! “ You can’t teach that “ Ralph for the Culture, and Square Ralph . A memory of the old school !!!
Oakdale and Westbury are not even close to the Hamptons.

They probably stole it from them by any means necessary

The place sucks it's a total ghost town after the summer. It's very far from stores and no major medical care.. very over priced for what it is.
