Dear O.W.E. , In the Franklin Repository, Jon Levi discovered a letter, written in 1853, stating that there were Palaces, Temples & ruins ALL OVER THE US. I’ve been watching Downton Abbey-( binge-watching until the expected “black-out” occurs),and researching the “ great houses” & palaces of Europe for perspective. So, I did an experiment. I watched Your Video with the SOUND OFF. Not looking @ ANY of the descriptive text either. And, It is ASTOUNDING to me HOW TRUE that 1853 letter was. SO MANY of the buildings you show ARE JUST LIKE the PALACES & Palace Complexes seen in other & European nations. IT APPEARS TO ME, that an ENTIRE HISTORY has been CHANGED/hidden/transported away from the people. This is MASSIVE!
Thank you for sharing your hard work and deeply researched topics. The old world was beautiful. I'm imagining happy, healthy, and fulfilled people with love and compassion. Man we've lost ourselves to deep evils of this world. I hope we find the full truth and bring it back. 💕🤞💕
From city to city, the images of these buildings you've collected all have the earmarks of a an old and sophisticated culture. They share many similarities with the domes, the spires, the ornamentations, the tall windows, and the emphasis on verticality. They don't look like they were suddenly built by settlers and and recent immigrants. These buildings look like they were constructed over a long period of time by a well-established civilization. It would be necessary to be established, populated, and highly educated in order to build all of these structures over such a vast area. The emphasis on artistry also shows a cultural imperative for such that far exceeds that of what we are taught to associate with the history of the history of the United States except in rare instances such as Washington DC, and the World's Fairs.
My favorite program! I appreciate you and your work. I hope that our New/Old Constitutional Republic selects you to officially break the news to us all.
I think this episode is probably my favorite. Columbus has/had some really old buildings, some of them almost looked medieval. Thank you Chris for all of your hard work putting these videos together for us.
A lot of these old world buildings are still around too. They've turned many of them into senior housing apartments. And these old schools have been turned into office spaces. My sister lives in one of them on Town Street.
As a former Columbusite, I really appreciate this. It always had an inferiority complex being in the shadows of Cleveland, Cincinnati and Dayton. My dad took us on field trips to view old buildings slated for destruction. I mostly recall the old ohio pen and the Neil House. The most enraging story is the dismantling of the Alfred Kelley Mansion which was made of massive sandstone blocks.
Grew up here, when I was young, many of the old timers call the "art deco" skyscraper "the Citadel." It is an amazing building inside and out. Also, many of the post office buildings still stand and have names like "the old, old post office." It is a very beautiful city that still has downtown neighborhoods with ethnic names like "German village", "Italian Village", "Victorian village" etc. And even with all those wonderful homes, there is still an area called "old town" that supposedly predates them all. And even before that, there were Adena mounds in this area that went back to the megalithic time.
@@paco7992 I forgot all about that, but l haven't been there for many years. Lived there in the 70s, went back there a few years ago (Westerville) to take care of my mom. The place had changed a bit. Progressive Wokinism everywhere
@jakeroberts7435 Yes, it's in a sad state indeed. I went to CCAD back in the 80s and there for the very first gallery hop in the short north. I loved that district even when it was hookers and theives. But alas, it could not stay young anymore than I can. It is now lousy with urban hipsters. They filled in every vacant lot and covered all the murals. Real progress. Don't even get me started on what they did to the bar district on High Street next to OSU. Many good nights were had at Mean Mister Mustard's and Crazy Momma's! I loved that city for many years, but now it just makes me sad about what it has lost. I moved to the West Coast in the mid 90s and watched paradise be destroyed. There really should be a middle way.
@@paco7992 Yeah, l spent some time at High Street bars back in the day, went to a couple OSU games, all the hoopala BS. I moved there from Oahu in '73, it was culturally shocking to say the least. I had a little trouble with authorities, got busted with over ten lbs of pot and then 200 'ludes, Oopsy daisy oh well. But that's way behind me, lived in South Florida for 34 years, now retired in the rolling hills of rural Kentucky, its kinda nice, l guess its going to be my Alamo. But the progressive woke shit is everywhere, we must endeavor to persevere.
I live in Ohio.. the French possessed Ohio before 1776. Wooster Collage and the old Wooster High School look like castles, and the Court House has the same carved men-pillars as a building I saw in St Petersburg Russia. I suspect these buildings were build in the time period that the French were here. Might be worth a look-see. Thanks for your videos!
@@rebeccaringler1265 it was clearly a global empire.. the French were occupying Ohio (with whatever natives lived here at the time) in the 1600’s-indicating to me.. the French King(s) at that time period were most likely the ones who financed and built these specific buildings I mentioned; we know the Spanish (royalty) were settling parts of the south at the same time.. were they a friend or foe of the French at that time? IDK, it would seem that royal-global elites each had lands they were settling in the so called new world, we see their castles all over the American continent. I’m just simply asking questions so the universe will release the answer(s): Truth created the universe-Truth will always prevail over the propaganda of the people who love deceit.. when the people who love truth start demanding to know what is true. One thing is for sure.. this subject is certainly fascinating! Have a wonderful week Rebecca💗🕯💗
@@OwlWhite12 I live in Ohio, too. The buildings are fascinating. Lots of people are awake enough to want answers right now. The establishment is losing ground. They know it.
@@rebeccaringler1265You all don't in fact want the truth because if the truth is that this was done by a people whose descendants you put in a category as lesser than, ignorant, dumb, poverty stricken, all you would do is wave it off. 🤷🏾♀️
It seems a lot of people are waking up. I assume castles in Wooster where built for protection for red-haired giants. There was a large population of giants in Ohio.
The Savings and Loan Building is actually the Atlas Building. Which is residential. I own the savings and loan building which is an old bank across the street completed in 1878. I was really hoping to see this on here as I have been dying to get old pictures of this thing for many years. You did an amazing job doing our little city justice with all of the work this is truly Amazing. Thank you.
Tradesmen were rare , but the average landowner or city dweller still had to have skills to build everything from furniture to makeshift containers , not to mention all or most their own clothing ,plus grow and / or put together the food from various sources ( no supermarkets) from scratch, plus heat from coal or wood , plus take care of chores like washing , childcare , medical care, running errands, church services, taking care of livestock and THEIR homes, and so on. WHAT FREE TIME??????
Wait🤔....what🤨.....let me help you🙄.....in 1492 AMERICA WAS BUILT OUT 🤭...free WATER and ELECTRICITY and don't forget Natural gas 😮.....this is the only way all these cities make since 🧐
Thanks for all your work Brother!! Second to NONE...PERIOD!! I've been awake for over 2 decades and have watched THOUSANDS of videos!! You, my friend, the MaestrOWE, have some of THE BEST videos on CZcams concerning our bullshit HIS-STORY!! You should have more subscribers than Mr. Beast!!
That arch from Union Station that was preserved was actually moved to where the penitentiary stood. The penitentiary was torn down to build Nationwide Arena for the NHL's Columbus Blue Jackets and the surrounding Arena District
The penitentiary was torn down and remains open space. . . C'bus has a history of taking out interesting, possibly still useful buildings. . . We DID preserve German Village, the second addition to original Columbus and the largest privately funded restoration project in the country. . .
My my my how I truly enjoyed your exposé of Old World/New World Columbus! I’ve lived I. The Capital City my entire life and I admire Old World architecture and I had no clue that our city possessed so much Old World architecture that was either destroyed or scaled down until you shed light on these time period discrepancies. Thank you! ❤
I thank u for this trip down memory lane. My heart breaks seeing some of the old structures that are no more. Our history destroyed. Their modernizing and trying to make Columbus like New York or Chicago. Very few of these structures left. Union station....it was such a fine beautiful structure when travel by air became more popular it was discarded as yesterday's trash. I have lived all.my life here in Columbus. It is home. Thank u for this I truly appreciate what u are doing trying to keep alive what once was an incredible majestic and beautiful architecture.
I grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Much of the history of the city was destroyed in the 1950s and 1960s because of the "urban renewal" program that demolished old buildings, replacing them with parking lots and freeways.
Just east of Columbus is a town called Zanesville. I just drove past it and seen so many amazing buildings from the highway. You should look into that place!
If you entertain the theory of free energy, the buildings that were scaled down or decapitated, may have been done so to destroy and hide the free-energy technology within those domes and spires.
I have lived in Columbus my whole life and never knew many of these buildings existed. Fantastic video. I am surprised you didn't view Ohio Stadium. When you go to a game there it feels like you're in ancient Rome.
It's wild you say that because if you look into the architectural history of the stadium it was built after the Roman coliseum they used two other previous stadiums and made there own unique design with the horseshoe
Thank you for this glimpse of the past long forgotten. Channels like yours keeps me looking and questioning. If I had the means, you would be funded fully. I don't. I'm sad. Yet, I watch. Keep it up. You are doing a phenomenal job.
It does seem uncomprehemable to think about the size of these structures and the symmetry of the building/windows/arches/castle like corners and the perfectness It think it was the feeble building, there’s a diamond shaped window in the center and horizontal concrete lines on the left and right tips , looks very good The question is, who are these great architects and why aren’t they household names like … frank Lloyd wright ? If these architects were famous for these incredible buildings, there would be an increased effort to save them
Yes and why aren't the buildings themselves celebrated. Why is the Columbus court house not praised for the monumental feat it was, never mind asking why they demolished it. Instead it appears there is an attempt to erase it from ever existing. And there are sooo many......
Also, I lived in what was East Berlin, which was a dump during the wall years. I saw it in ‘91 and it was like going back in time. Now it is all sanitized and a lot of the old world stuff “updated.” They still have the street cars, (no longer in West Berlin) an elaborate system, very German and efficient, except with ugly modern cars now. It’s clear to me they purpose update with gaudy colors, and ugly plastic materials to create more of a prison chic feel. It’s a joke to see the remains of beauty combined with complete crap. Undeniably intentional.
It’s like they know ugly buildings will affect us in a negative way. Like the brutalist architecture that seem like something from a dystopian society.
On the initial Birdseye, those back houses are exactly like apartment layouts in Berlin. They are called hinter houses. There is the beautiful, ornate main house on the street. They always have huge, double, 10-15 foot high front doors, wide enough for deliveries, etc opening into an ornate, high-ceilinged walk way, arches and all, to get to the back houses, which are still beautiful but less so. Probably battery-like layout like the computer chip board. Not saying the drawing is correct. But it could be more evidence of German, or old world influence.
In Columbus there are still houses that sit in the middle of the block with small alleys as block streets interlacing within. Not many of these types of homes left and are in the old districts. I used to enjoy walking through these alley/streets and see the smaller houses and a few businesses such as a small pizza restaurant and another being a bar, tucked away as if those small Japanese stalls/micro restaurants that sit in back alley's off the main roads.
I laughed out loud at the sight of the "Deaf and Dumb Institution" 20 minutes in. As if you'd need such a grandiose building for that purpose! 😆You know the old saying "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it". Then it becomes "public knowledge" and the information is considered settled. Hopefully that fallacy is in the process of changing.🤨
Not surprising to see why it was so appealing to so many of the Hungarian immigrants. Lot os similarities in architectural styles of Columbus and Budapest.
It's so discouraging to live here and look back on all the history we destroyed. We were building a world class city with buildings built to last as legacy pieces and inspiration for generations to come. We've been careless with our city planning and replaced all of these masterpieces with some really ugly and unremarkable buildings. In the video you touched on our old Union Station designed by Daniel Burnham. It was actually demolished overnight against the will of the community. We have preserved one of the arches which sits in a residential courtyard known as Daniel Burnham Square to pay homage to his train station's legacy. It will never do justice for what was taken away from our city sadly. Just so many great monuments and testaments to our ingenuity and creativity gone. Hope we can learn from our mistakes but I'm not optimistic. Thanks for such a great video showcasing our city.
Thank you so much for highlighting some of the old buildings of Columbus. I grew up in Columbus and I vividly remember many of these old structures. On one hand we were told in school about Columbus emerging from Franklinton, a pioneer crossroads of early America. Yet everywhere there were and still are, enormous buildings such as the insane asylum, school for the deaf and the Carnage Library. Which were in stark contrast to the primitive and simple abilities people on the frontier. I have enjoyed your presentation very much.
The levelers. I wonder, if I was an architect but nothing I could imagine could compete with already existing buildings, would I wish those structures be gone?
I’m confused about the narrative behind what is being suggested. As an historic preservationist and 17 year resident of Columbus, Ohio, I’ve spent years researching Ohio history, property and land deeds, probate records, wills and transfers, genealogical records and thousands of letters, articles, publications, photographs, diaries, autobiographical materials, and museum collections. I have a degree in art history with a specialty in architectural history and design, I have a graduate degree in historic preservation and urban design, and have done extensive research for multiple historical societies, private collections, local museums, and multiple cultural sites and institutions. And although there are many different influencers affecting the historical narrative as it is known, there is a clearly defined flow of consistency and understanding that is easily proven by thousands of pieces of existing first hand witness evidence documentation. That said; the older buildings in Columbus, and throughout this country, are properly and correctly dated as proven by first-hand documentation. Just because they “look older”, isn’t proof that they are. American architecture developed from European traditional design and it combined those traditions with a uniquely American flair for creativity and inventiveness. The manufacturing technology of the 1820’s was steam driven up until electricity became widespread by the late 1880’s. There was no earlier advanced civilization that looked anything like European cities or used European traditions in their architecture. The native populations of the new world existed in tribal communities which migrated with the seasons and herds of buffalo or deer. To ascertain that old photos show that buildings were far older than what is told today, or that there was an older civilization that has been hidden in plain site and that there is some conspiracy to destroy and hide it from us…., well, that is just plain silly!! Nothing anywhere shows that. It’s all in one’s imagination or made up narrative. It’s a fun idea to play with, but don’t go out into the real world with that kind of belief. You’ll be quickly proven wrong by existing proof, and you’ll be laughed at for believing such a thing. Such imagination is best used writing books or researching the world’s real mysteries that need solving! The truth is out there, but the truth about our American architectural history is well known and documented. There is no hidden mystery here, sorry.
Case closed....no conspiracy, no mystery, no earlier advanced civilization. You really killed the imagination on this one. Well done. Will have to pull a 180 on my channel and echo what the historical accounts tell us. Thanks for the inspiration..
I live in Columbus. I lived across the intersection from the “Circus House” that you showed in the video. When you said it looked like a quaint residential area, that is an area called “Victorian Village”. Across from that row of houses is Goodale Park. That neighborhood is on the doorstep of downtown. The Union Station arch was moved down to what is called the Arena District. They tore down the State Penn and put up 3 new stadiums in that area. The arch sits right across from Nationwide Arena on a tiny strip of grass that they call a park.
17:30. The City Hall got burnt in 1921, but that was not the only government building in Columbus to catch fire that year. We learn that nobody watching the fire was very sorry, and Wikipedia also notes that: "initially seen as a perfect example of Gothic Revival architecture, it later grew a reputation as unsatisfactory for a city hall. It was described by the Columbus Dispatch a day after the fire as "long an eyesore to Columbus", and in 2012 as a "Gothic nightmare of a building" (interesting how the latter remark alludes directly to claims we see about the negative associations a la Scooby Doo / Psycho and so on with the Gothic style... The architect is said to be Robert T Brookes, and elsewhere we read: The original architect appointed to build the new Oxford County courthouse was Robert T. Brookes of Detroit. Originally from Ireland, Brookes immigrated to Canada after 1851 where he was one of the first professional architects to live and work in Victoria County, Ontario. He moved to the United States around 1870 where he opened an office in Detroit and he lived and worked there for nearly thirty years. It was at this office when R.T. Brookes submitted his design for the Oxford County Courthouse, working as the head architect until he was eventually dismissed due to the poor quality of workmanship on the foundations... Brookes was indeed born in Ireland in 1824 and he died (of senility) in Detroit in 1910.
Don't forget the Shawnee,wayndots, Delawares, and other natives were fighting them up until 1830. So right after a recovery from a war that lasted 100 years they built all this. Probably belonged to the natives and the natives were we're probably different origins then we were told
I enjoyed the video this is my home town. What do you mean by deception? Some of these buildings are still standing. I also agree it was criminal to destroy any of them.
what a great walk down memory lane. Born and raised Buckeye! As for the ornate buildings, I am gueasing bc they were european immigrants, german immigrants, etc and brought that architecture with them. I am so glad they did bc buildings of today, IMO, are missing that charm.
If you look up Buckeye lake there is a huge wall that was built with blocks from supposedly Indian mounds?? It’s a huge wall and, it doesn’t make sense.
couldn't find anything on it. The 'indian mounds' are just buried old world evidence imho .. another way to distort the historical record.... many golf courses serve a similar purpose...to cover up the evidence. I think many are admittedly build on 'mounds'.
The Circus House is located in an area called Bexley which is east of downtown. @18:21 When I was a toddler the building on the corner was a daycare...it is located in the Short North Area...Dennison Ave. and Buttles Ave. There is a park across the street called Goodale Park. The Hartman theater is now a Hyatt. I did a photo shoot for a client in the old PO across the street. Awesome building. Regarding the old state prison- in the 80's before it was torn down a couple of us snuck into the compound. The Union Station arch is now located in the Arena district. The arches along High St. in the Short North area were taken down and about 10+ years ago they put some of them back up. The current Department of Health is located on Parsons Ave between Broad St. and Main St. and it is one of those old "hospital" type buildings. Love your videos!
You can buy a room inside the Lincoln-Leveque Tower now, absolutely gorgeous. Fun fact, my grandfather was one of the men that stormed into the prison during the riots back in the late 60s, I think 67/68…over 40 years later, I ended up working with one of the guards that was taken hostage that my grandfather rescued…the story he told me was so much more brutal than what the newspapers could ever report.
Fantastic look into the past. Perhaps practically every city in the U.S. has at least one of these structures remaining. State Hospitals in Missouri also had ornamentation removed, especially wood. Aug.10, 2023. St. Joseph, MO.
Describing the Laveque Tower, you say”supposed” build dates between 1924 and 1927. Why sow doubt when it clearly has a defined and documented date of being begun and completed? The construction photos you doubt are in fact real and easily explained; no mystery exists here. You say there isn’t enough information when, in fact, there are volumes of documents, boxes of photographs, thousands of correspondence letters, personal accounts, hundreds of stories, and much more that all exists for the public’s access and use at the library and city building department’s office archives.
Did the Hartman Theater, but not the Ohio Theater built in 1928 and saved from demolition in 1969 and renovated through the 1970's - stunning inside. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. Still in use today.
The "main building" on the Ohio State Campus is actually Independence Hall. I only had 1 class there in my freshman year I don't remember much about the interior. It was used al day every day! The Orton Hall building is also on campus. Its very cool on the inside. There is a very old library inside and the first the you see when go up the stairs and open the doors is a massive T-Rex skull incased in glass. I only know about Orton because 1 year I did Library Security on campus. I never saw many people there, so I'm not sure what it was used for except. the quietest study library ever. I'm surprised there wasn't anything about the Main Campus Library. That building was very cool. It was being renovated when I was there and has a very modern feel now.
Union station is replicated and partially there still. The area is Short North, that site houses fine dining restaurants, and the main highway runs underneath
Wow that legs building complex looks like a giant anchor from above. Great video! Great work! Totally non of it makes sense to be building that many buildings, all so detailed, so quickly. So sad all the street car trolls are almost all gone, I hate walking down the street and seeing so many damn cars, smelling up the air, causing ailments of many kinds, poisoning us..
that courthouse looks very European and unusual in that area in Ohio - the people in the area probably felt that it looked too European for American eyes
A lot of the old fire houses in Columbus had ornamental hose towers that were lowered to some degree due to disrepair or damage from from wind/storms. I imagine this was the case with the hotels and other buildings with ornate rooflines that were trimmed up. The one hospital you show and mention about having wasted space was designed in such a way to allow light and fresh air to more interior rooms. It is a shame they tore so much down, but no one willing to shell out money to restore these old buildings in poor economic times was their downfall. They were viewed as impractical and too expensive to renovate. Check out the Columbus Firefighters Union hall. An old train station built in an interesting pagoda style.
My great grandfather was one of the original architects of Columbus, Clarence Richards. So much was lost but it was native, there is no mystery to the Western architecture here...
I think those crosses had to be antiquitech not really religious symbols - there are many of them on the buildings of stone and bricks - they are not made of wood or flimsy materials
Yes the 70s was a rough time in Columbus Ohio. Much was being torn down and rebuilt. That's when they put 70 East/West in the center of the city.. At minute 27:30, I don't know where Saint Francis Hospital is or was located. I'm 60 years old and I have no idea. Oh it's now Grant hospital downtown Columbus. I had to look it up.
I had several classes in Orton Hall at Ohio State there’s a really beautiful library inside that is the best and most secluded compared to the main Thompson library
union station: i was told once that the structure that remains is due to preservationist winning the battle to preserve but not before most had been demolished
Nice work my guy , i see this alot in small towns in ks and i live in a small town and i see things like this sticking out everwhere old Cartersville Ga like main and downtown ..
I apologize. I was too quick to judge. After more thought I let the skeptic in me take over.. I guess it wouldn’t be hard for people in power along the way to just forge or make up stories, and people just took what they heard. It’s not like we haven’t been lied to before… Sorry my first comment was so negative. It’s best to consider all possibilities. Take care and keep doing these.
All this stuff is easily researched. This supposed CZcamsr seems to have a supposed problem with looking these so called things up. Franklinton was founded in 1797. This fact solves a lot of your mysteries. Really cool history, but could do without the tin foil hat brain worms
@@oldworldex what do I not understand? I’m genuinely interested. You seem to have a big problem with things changing. Logic doesn’t dictate art, you get that right? You got one thing right, your views are very abnormal. Again the history is cool though!!
I'll wear 'abnormal' like a badge of honour. History is a lie agreed upon, you get that right? (notice how condescending this type of phrasing is?....you get THAT right?) @@samd9830
Can anyone state this man's "theory" succinctly? Just be straight with what you think dude. This is the first video of his that I have watched and before watching more I'd like to know. The allusions made before I became to frustrated to enjoy were- "They" aren't telling us everything about the construction dates being much earlier. They took all of the ornate parts from the structures because....? To me this narration is about as specific as someone posting on social media "prayers needed" lol
@@oldworldex Thanks for the reply. "This place" meaning? How do you know what I think? The point of the "prayer" comment was that they want attention by being purposefully vague, much like you are doing right now. Try saying what you mean.
@@tchrisou812 This place in which we all inhabit. Try a couple more videos on the subject matter if you like...or don't. The 'allusions' made are vague because they have to be. I'm putting out these videos to encourage people to question the historical narrative. Some people really get their hair up when you suggest what they thought was firm ground is actually quite shaky. I can't provide answers..but I encourage asking the questions.
@@oldworldex Now that I understand your reasoning and approach it has only made me more interested. I think I'm "catching your drift" but agree that I need to experience more of what you have offered. I think you can see my point of view coming into your content "cold". Thanks for the reply and maybe someday we will talk again. I have read a lot of the comments and it seems as if you are building a community of people that would be interesting to me.
@@tchrisou812 I appreciate the conversation. There's a lot here to dive into..so much is speculation. I understand your perspective of 'coming in cold ' on this stuff. The goal is certainly not to detract newcomers to the subject matter...perhaps I could refine my approach a bit and clarify what I can. Thank you for encouraging me to do so.
Dear O.W.E. ,
In the Franklin Repository, Jon Levi discovered a letter, written in 1853, stating that there were Palaces, Temples & ruins ALL OVER THE US.
I’ve been watching Downton Abbey-( binge-watching until the expected “black-out” occurs),and researching the “ great houses” & palaces of Europe for perspective.
So, I did an experiment.
I watched Your Video with the SOUND OFF.
Not looking @ ANY of the descriptive text either.
And,
It is ASTOUNDING to me
HOW TRUE that 1853 letter was.
SO MANY of the buildings you show ARE JUST LIKE
the PALACES & Palace Complexes seen in other & European nations.
IT APPEARS TO ME,
that an ENTIRE HISTORY has been CHANGED/hidden/transported away from the people.
This is MASSIVE!
bigger than we can possibly imagine. Thanks for your input here.
I grew up here. You did a really great job with this. Several of us watched this together and everyone really enjoyed this so much. Thank you. 😁😊
Thank you this means a lot to me....
I'm in Columbus as well. hello neighbor!
Fellow Ohioan here (within an hour of Columbus and lived there for several years.)

You raise a lot of good questions about our history. I’ve always thought there was “more to the story” with some of these buildings. Keep ‘em coming
Thank you so much for taking the time to put these videos out I am blown away but this beauty of these buildings
My favorite program! I appreciate you and your work. I hope that our New/Old Constitutional Republic selects you to officially break the news to us all.
I think this episode is probably my favorite. Columbus has/had some really old buildings, some of them almost looked medieval. Thank you Chris for all of your hard work putting these videos together for us.
Wow high praise Cathy thank you so much. Always love seeing you here..
A lot of these old world buildings are still around too. They've turned many of them into senior housing apartments. And these old schools have been turned into office spaces.
My sister lives in one of them on Town Street.
@@Jenny_Lee_town street ? so the old starling school actually going even further back it was the first west high school
As a former Columbusite, I really appreciate this. It always had an inferiority complex being in the shadows of Cleveland, Cincinnati and Dayton. My dad took us on field trips to view old buildings slated for destruction. I mostly recall the old ohio pen and the Neil House.
The most enraging story is the dismantling of the Alfred Kelley Mansion which was made of massive sandstone blocks.
MaestrOWE.. You're really hammering the videos out!! I need time to grieve between videos Brother lol
Will be gearing down soon...cheers.
Grew up here, when I was young, many of the old timers call the "art deco" skyscraper "the Citadel." It is an amazing building inside and out. Also, many of the post office buildings still stand and have names like "the old, old post office." It is a very beautiful city that still has downtown neighborhoods with ethnic names like "German village", "Italian Village", "Victorian village" etc. And even with all those wonderful homes, there is still an area called "old town" that supposedly predates them all. And even before that, there were Adena mounds in this area that went back to the megalithic time.
Outside of Worthington there are some "Indian mounds", Jeffers Mound. My dads family was from Worthinton
@jakeroberts7435 mound street in downtown was named that because there was a mound there. It is now a wine bar.
@@paco7992 I forgot all about that, but l haven't been there for many years. Lived there in the 70s, went back there a few years ago (Westerville) to take care of my mom. The place had changed a bit. Progressive Wokinism everywhere
@jakeroberts7435 Yes, it's in a sad state indeed. I went to CCAD back in the 80s and there for the very first gallery hop in the short north. I loved that district even when it was hookers and theives. But alas, it could not stay young anymore than I can. It is now lousy with urban hipsters. They filled in every vacant lot and covered all the murals. Real progress. Don't even get me started on what they did to the bar district on High Street next to OSU. Many good nights were had at Mean Mister Mustard's and Crazy Momma's!
I loved that city for many years, but now it just makes me sad about what it has lost. I moved to the West Coast in the mid 90s and watched paradise be destroyed. There really should be a middle way.
@@paco7992 Yeah, l spent some time at High Street bars back in the day, went to a couple OSU games, all the hoopala BS. I moved there from Oahu in '73, it was culturally shocking to say the least. I had a little trouble with authorities, got busted with over ten lbs of pot and then 200 'ludes, Oopsy daisy oh well. But that's way behind me, lived in South Florida for 34 years, now retired in the rolling hills of rural Kentucky, its kinda nice, l guess its going to be my Alamo. But the progressive woke shit is everywhere, we must endeavor to persevere.
Just criminal so many gorgeous buildings were torn down, makes me angry.
Now all we have is dull buildings and ones that look like a huge window 😅
I live in Ohio.. the French possessed Ohio before 1776. Wooster Collage and the old Wooster High School look like castles, and the Court House has the same carved men-pillars as a building I saw in St Petersburg Russia. I suspect these buildings were build in the time period that the French were here. Might be worth a look-see. Thanks for your videos!
It was all one culture and something happened.
@@rebeccaringler1265 it was clearly a global empire.. the French were occupying Ohio (with whatever natives lived here at the time) in the 1600’s-indicating to me.. the French King(s) at that time period were most likely the ones who financed and built these specific buildings I mentioned; we know the Spanish (royalty) were settling parts of the south at the same time.. were they a friend or foe of the French at that time? IDK, it would seem that royal-global elites each had lands they were settling in the so called new world, we see their castles all over the American continent. I’m just simply asking questions so the universe will release the answer(s): Truth created the universe-Truth will always prevail over the propaganda of the people who love deceit.. when the people who love truth start demanding to know what is true. One thing is for sure.. this subject is certainly fascinating! Have a wonderful week Rebecca💗🕯💗
@@OwlWhite12 I live in Ohio, too. The buildings are fascinating. Lots of people are awake enough to want answers right now. The establishment is losing ground. They know it.
@@rebeccaringler1265You all don't in fact want the truth because if the truth is that this was done by a people whose descendants you put in a category as lesser than, ignorant, dumb, poverty stricken, all you would do is wave it off. 🤷🏾♀️
It seems a lot of people are waking up. I assume castles in Wooster where built for protection for red-haired giants. There was a large population of giants in Ohio.
The Savings and Loan Building is actually the Atlas Building. Which is residential. I own the savings and loan building which is an old bank across the street completed in 1878. I was really hoping to see this on here as I have been dying to get old pictures of this thing for many years. You did an amazing job doing our little city justice with all of the work this is truly Amazing. Thank you.
I have lived in Columbus, Ohio for 30+ years. Thank you for this. Great content!
Thanks for watching!
@@oldworldexi subbed! Great job!
Tradesmen were rare , but the average landowner or city dweller still had to have skills to build everything from furniture to makeshift containers , not to mention all or most their own clothing ,plus grow and / or put together the food from various sources ( no supermarkets) from scratch, plus heat from coal or wood , plus take care of chores like washing , childcare , medical care, running errands, church services, taking care of livestock and THEIR homes, and so on.
WHAT FREE TIME??????
Wait🤔....what🤨.....let me help you🙄.....in 1492 AMERICA WAS BUILT OUT 🤭...free WATER and ELECTRICITY and don't forget Natural gas 😮.....this is the only way all these cities make since 🧐
Okay...who do we need to waterboard to find out the truth about our fuckin' history?!?!
They are definitely hiding who and what we are
I'm tired of the b.s.
I want out of this nonsense
The Union Train Station smelled like 'piss' in 1969.
Thanks for all your work Brother!! Second to NONE...PERIOD!! I've been awake for over 2 decades and have watched THOUSANDS of videos!! You, my friend, the MaestrOWE, have some of THE BEST videos on CZcams concerning our bullshit HIS-STORY!! You should have more subscribers than Mr. Beast!!
High praise thank you....Mr Beast can keep his beast....I prefer to walk a different path.😄
That arch from Union Station that was preserved was actually moved to where the penitentiary stood. The penitentiary was torn down to build Nationwide Arena for the NHL's Columbus Blue Jackets and the surrounding Arena District
The penitentiary was torn down and remains open space. . . C'bus has a history of taking out interesting, possibly still useful buildings. . . We DID preserve German Village, the second addition to original Columbus and the largest privately funded restoration project in the country. . .
@@allensams1773 it's not open space. It's the Arena District
@@allensams1773 Are there any specific old world places that you like to explore in German Village?
The only open space is McPherson Commons as the rest was rebuilt as the Arena District. Sweeping generalities aren't needed here. @@allensams1773
THANK YOU FOR YOUR RESEARCH . LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBED. ITS GOING TO GET GREAT FAST😊
Great to have you here!!
My my my how I truly enjoyed your exposé of Old World/New World Columbus!
I’ve lived I. The Capital City my entire life and I admire Old World architecture and I had no clue that our city possessed so much Old World architecture that was either destroyed or scaled down until you shed light on these time period discrepancies. Thank you! ❤
I thank u for this trip down memory lane. My heart breaks seeing some of the old structures that are no more. Our history destroyed. Their modernizing and trying to make Columbus like New York or Chicago. Very few of these structures left. Union station....it was such a fine beautiful structure when travel by air became more popular it was discarded as yesterday's trash. I have lived all.my life here in Columbus. It is home. Thank u for this I truly appreciate what u are doing trying to keep alive what once was an incredible majestic and beautiful architecture.
A co-worker of mine used to be one of the owners of the circus house. He said it was a blessing to take care of the home.
I grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Much of the history of the city was destroyed in the 1950s and 1960s because of the "urban renewal" program that demolished old buildings, replacing them with parking lots and freeways.
Just east of Columbus is a town called Zanesville. I just drove past it and seen so many amazing buildings from the highway. You should look into that place!
Just when I have reasons to think this is not true I see another complete mind blower like that hospital. It makes no sense.
If you entertain the theory of free energy, the buildings that were scaled down or decapitated, may have been done so to destroy and hide the free-energy technology within those domes and spires.
I have lived in Columbus my whole life and never knew many of these buildings existed. Fantastic video. I am surprised you didn't view Ohio Stadium. When you go to a game there it feels like you're in ancient Rome.
It's wild you say that because if you look into the architectural history of the stadium it was built after the Roman coliseum they used two other previous stadiums and made there own unique design with the horseshoe
Thank you for this glimpse of the past long forgotten. Channels like yours keeps me looking and questioning. If I had the means, you would be funded fully. I don't. I'm sad. Yet, I watch. Keep it up. You are doing a phenomenal job.
Thank you for watching. Comments like yours inspire me to keep the old world vids coming..
We need allot of those feeble minded buildings today 😂
We have them. They are just called "Federal Buildings" now. 😅
@@paco7992 Good point but I was more or less referring to most of the people who go into those federal buildings etc….
It does seem uncomprehemable to think about the size of these structures and the symmetry of the building/windows/arches/castle like corners and the perfectness
It think it was the feeble building, there’s a diamond shaped window in the center and horizontal concrete lines on the left and right tips , looks very good
The question is, who are these great architects and why aren’t they household names like … frank Lloyd wright ? If these architects were famous for these incredible buildings, there would be an increased effort to save them
Yes and why aren't the buildings themselves celebrated. Why is the Columbus court house not praised for the monumental feat it was, never mind asking why they demolished it. Instead it appears there is an attempt to erase it from ever existing. And there are sooo many......
Also, I lived in what was East Berlin, which was a dump during the wall years. I saw it in ‘91 and it was like going back in time. Now it is all sanitized and a lot of the old world stuff “updated.” They still have the street cars, (no longer in West Berlin) an elaborate system, very German and efficient, except with ugly modern cars now. It’s clear to me they purpose update with gaudy colors, and ugly plastic materials to create more of a prison chic feel. It’s a joke to see the remains of beauty combined with complete crap. Undeniably intentional.
It’s like they know ugly buildings will affect us in a negative way. Like the brutalist architecture that seem like something from a dystopian society.
On the initial Birdseye, those back houses are exactly like apartment layouts in Berlin. They are called hinter houses. There is the beautiful, ornate main house on the street. They always have huge, double, 10-15 foot high front doors, wide enough for deliveries, etc opening into an ornate, high-ceilinged walk way, arches and all, to get to the back houses, which are still beautiful but less so. Probably battery-like layout like the computer chip board. Not saying the drawing is correct. But it could be more evidence of German, or old world influence.
Interesting..
@@oldworldex Hinter being a German word for "behind". It gives new meaning to the term "hinterlands". 😀
In Columbus there are still houses that sit in the middle of the block with small alleys as block streets interlacing within. Not many of these types of homes left and are in the old districts. I used to enjoy walking through these alley/streets and see the smaller houses and a few businesses such as a small pizza restaurant and another being a bar, tucked away as if those small Japanese stalls/micro restaurants that sit in back alley's off the main roads.
Nice video and thoughts.. interesting to the max. Kentucky native here. Keep Pushin
Thanks! Will do!
What the Puck Happened, Great work brother. P.S please find out what happened to that era. Past, present future Thanx.
I think we're all finding out together..
Columbus is getting worst year by year 😂
I laughed out loud at the sight of the "Deaf and Dumb Institution" 20 minutes in. As if you'd need such a grandiose building for that purpose! 😆You know the old saying "If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it". Then it becomes "public knowledge" and the information is considered settled. Hopefully that fallacy is in the process of changing.🤨
Not surprising to see why it was so appealing to so many of the Hungarian immigrants. Lot os similarities in architectural styles of Columbus and Budapest.
It's so discouraging to live here and look back on all the history we destroyed. We were building a world class city with buildings built to last as legacy pieces and inspiration for generations to come. We've been careless with our city planning and replaced all of these masterpieces with some really ugly and unremarkable buildings. In the video you touched on our old Union Station designed by Daniel Burnham. It was actually demolished overnight against the will of the community. We have preserved one of the arches which sits in a residential courtyard known as Daniel Burnham Square to pay homage to his train station's legacy. It will never do justice for what was taken away from our city sadly. Just so many great monuments and testaments to our ingenuity and creativity gone. Hope we can learn from our mistakes but I'm not optimistic. Thanks for such a great video showcasing our city.
Born & raised in Columbus you did a wonderful job Sir I drove around after watching and could still find some of the old buildings. ❤
Thank you kindly!
Thank you so much for highlighting some of the old buildings of Columbus. I grew up in Columbus and I vividly remember many of these old structures. On one hand we were told in school about Columbus emerging from Franklinton, a pioneer crossroads of early America. Yet everywhere there were and still are, enormous buildings such as the insane asylum, school for the deaf and the Carnage Library. Which were in stark contrast to the primitive and simple abilities people on the frontier. I have enjoyed your presentation very much.
Just look at another building structure technology I stumbled upon. Asheville NC. " Tunnel Road " is the same " Lion Tunnel " in Hong Kong ! Ha !
thank you for sharing... born and raised here. still here goiing on 70 yrs now
Ford and Goodrich bought all the trolleys and said they were to old to fix.
You should also look at Ohio Stadium as well before the renovation, it screams old world to me and it looks really cool.
You're right. Can't believe I missed that...thanks for the heads up!
The levelers. I wonder, if I was an architect but nothing I could imagine could compete with already existing buildings, would I wish those structures be gone?
Outstanding
Where were the mills? Where did they make fabrics and clothing? So many questions. Great job.
I’m confused about the narrative behind what is being suggested. As an historic preservationist and 17 year resident of Columbus, Ohio, I’ve spent years researching Ohio history, property and land deeds, probate records, wills and transfers, genealogical records and thousands of letters, articles, publications, photographs, diaries, autobiographical materials, and museum collections. I have a degree in art history with a specialty in architectural history and design, I have a graduate degree in historic preservation and urban design, and have done extensive research for multiple historical societies, private collections, local museums, and multiple cultural sites and institutions. And although there are many different influencers affecting the historical narrative as it is known, there is a clearly defined flow of consistency and understanding that is easily proven by thousands of pieces of existing first hand witness evidence documentation. That said; the older buildings in Columbus, and throughout this country, are properly and correctly dated as proven by first-hand documentation. Just because they “look older”, isn’t proof that they are. American architecture developed from European traditional design and it combined those traditions with a uniquely American flair for creativity and inventiveness. The manufacturing technology of the 1820’s was steam driven up until electricity became widespread by the late 1880’s. There was no earlier advanced civilization that looked anything like European cities or used European traditions in their architecture. The native populations of the new world existed in tribal communities which migrated with the seasons and herds of buffalo or deer. To ascertain that old photos show that buildings were far older than what is told today, or that there was an older civilization that has been hidden in plain site and that there is some conspiracy to destroy and hide it from us…., well, that is just plain silly!! Nothing anywhere shows that. It’s all in one’s imagination or made up narrative.
It’s a fun idea to play with, but don’t go out into the real world with that kind of belief. You’ll be quickly proven wrong by existing proof, and you’ll be laughed at for believing such a thing.
Such imagination is best used writing books or researching the world’s real mysteries that need solving!
The truth is out there, but the truth about our American architectural history is well known and documented. There is no hidden mystery here, sorry.
Case closed....no conspiracy, no mystery, no earlier advanced civilization. You really killed the imagination on this one. Well done. Will have to pull a 180 on my channel and echo what the historical accounts tell us. Thanks for the inspiration..
Thanks for sharing your work 🙏🏻
My pleasure!
That city is obviously old. Thank you for your research and hard work. Can you do Kansas City next? Both sides of the State line
I did a Kansas City but I don't believe I did it justice. Will have to try it again..
@@oldworldex ok I'll check your videos for it. I plan to do an expedition there soon
I live in Columbus. I lived across the intersection from the “Circus House” that you showed in the video. When you said it looked like a quaint residential area, that is an area called “Victorian Village”. Across from that row of houses is Goodale Park. That neighborhood is on the doorstep of downtown. The Union Station arch was moved down to what is called the Arena District. They tore down the State Penn and put up 3 new stadiums in that area. The arch sits right across from Nationwide Arena on a tiny strip of grass that they call a park.
Old world photography has been vanilla skye'd
But why is that?
17:30. The City Hall got burnt in 1921, but that was not the only government building in Columbus to catch fire that year.
We learn that nobody watching the fire was very sorry, and Wikipedia also notes that: "initially seen as a perfect example of Gothic Revival architecture, it later grew a reputation as unsatisfactory for a city hall. It was described by the Columbus Dispatch a day after the fire as "long an eyesore to Columbus", and in 2012 as a "Gothic nightmare of a building" (interesting how the latter remark alludes directly to claims we see about the negative associations a la Scooby Doo / Psycho and so on with the Gothic style...
The architect is said to be Robert T Brookes, and elsewhere we read:
The original architect appointed to build the new Oxford County courthouse was Robert T. Brookes of Detroit. Originally from Ireland, Brookes immigrated to Canada after 1851 where he was one of the first professional architects to live and work in Victoria County, Ontario. He moved to the United States around 1870 where he opened an office in Detroit and he lived and worked there for nearly thirty years. It was at this office when R.T. Brookes submitted his design for the Oxford County Courthouse, working as the head architect until he was eventually dismissed due to the poor quality of workmanship on the foundations...
Brookes was indeed born in Ireland in 1824 and he died (of senility) in Detroit in 1910.
Don't forget the Shawnee,wayndots, Delawares, and other natives were fighting them up until 1830. So right after a recovery from a war that lasted 100 years they built all this. Probably belonged to the natives and the natives were we're probably different origins then we were told
Had to look it up, that Bigelow Chapel is actually in Boston MA
You're right, thanks for clearing that up. It happens from time to time...lots of visuals to sort through.
I enjoyed the video this is my home town. What do you mean by deception? Some of these buildings are still standing. I also agree it was criminal to destroy any of them.
what a great walk down memory lane. Born and raised Buckeye! As for the ornate buildings, I am gueasing bc they were european immigrants, german immigrants, etc and brought that architecture with them. I am so glad they did bc buildings of today, IMO, are missing that charm.
Columbus Ohio is 1.5 million and growing especially with Intel coming to town, what you were looking at was from 2010.
If you look up Buckeye lake there is a huge wall that was built with blocks from supposedly Indian mounds?? It’s a huge wall and, it doesn’t make sense.
couldn't find anything on it. The 'indian mounds' are just buried old world evidence imho .. another way to distort the historical record.... many golf courses serve a similar purpose...to cover up the evidence. I think many are admittedly build on 'mounds'.
@@oldworldexWhy would they cover up evidence of the old world? I don't understand
@@isabelllable because it maintains their control of the 'new world'. Once we remember, their control matrix comes down.
The Circus House is located in an area called Bexley which is east of downtown.
@18:21 When I was a toddler the building on the corner was a daycare...it is located in the Short North Area...Dennison Ave. and Buttles Ave. There is a park across the street called Goodale Park.
The Hartman theater is now a Hyatt. I did a photo shoot for a client in the old PO across the street. Awesome building.
Regarding the old state prison- in the 80's before it was torn down a couple of us snuck into the compound.
The Union Station arch is now located in the Arena district.
The arches along High St. in the Short North area were taken down and about 10+ years ago they put some of them back up.
The current Department of Health is located on Parsons Ave between Broad St. and Main St. and it is one of those old "hospital" type buildings.
Love your videos!
I was in contract to buy this a few years back. So glad I didn’t. lol. WAS a great building
You can buy a room inside the Lincoln-Leveque Tower now, absolutely gorgeous.
Fun fact, my grandfather was one of the men that stormed into the prison during the riots back in the late 60s, I think 67/68…over 40 years later, I ended up working with one of the guards that was taken hostage that my grandfather rescued…the story he told me was so much more brutal than what the newspapers could ever report.
Whhaaaaaaat?!?!?! Definitely a different mind set. The words that come to mind; spectacular, grandiose, and mostly psychedelia to the utmost degree.
If you notice the Union station part they saved it didn’t have the top with faces on it.
If you can find South High school, Barrett Jr. High, Hyel elementary. They looked similar to old world. Schiller Park as well.
Fantastic look into the past. Perhaps practically every city in the U.S. has at least one of these structures remaining. State Hospitals in Missouri also had ornamentation removed, especially wood. Aug.10, 2023. St. Joseph, MO.
Columbus just seemed to want to destroy everything from their past particularly in the 1960’s and 1970’s. Sad.
That happened in many places..by design I believe.
the neglect shown in the modern day photo of the first "Union Station" @33:04 is nothing short of a crime.
Describing the Laveque Tower, you say”supposed” build dates between 1924 and 1927. Why sow doubt when it clearly has a defined and documented date of being begun and completed?
The construction photos you doubt are in fact real and easily explained; no mystery exists here.
You say there isn’t enough information when, in fact, there are volumes of documents, boxes of photographs, thousands of correspondence letters, personal accounts, hundreds of stories, and much more that all exists for the public’s access and use at the library and city building department’s office archives.
Did the Hartman Theater, but not the Ohio Theater built in 1928 and saved from demolition in 1969 and renovated through the 1970's - stunning inside. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. Still in use today.
The "main building" on the Ohio State Campus is actually Independence Hall. I only had 1 class there in my freshman year I don't remember much about the interior. It was used al day every day! The Orton Hall building is also on campus. Its very cool on the inside. There is a very old library inside and the first the you see when go up the stairs and open the doors is a massive T-Rex skull incased in glass. I only know about Orton because 1 year I did Library Security on campus. I never saw many people there, so I'm not sure what it was used for except. the quietest study library ever. I'm surprised there wasn't anything about the Main Campus Library. That building was very cool. It was being renovated when I was there and has a very modern feel now.
Union station is replicated and partially there still. The area is Short North, that site houses fine dining restaurants, and the main highway runs underneath
Amazing work man. I really want to get a print shop going showing off all these old buildings and birdseye view
Montrose, Colorado Thank You.
Interesting. There is a Lincoln Tower in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It was built supposedly during the depression. 🤔 It is almost identical.
It caught fire. Marion Carter did not live. The steel company in columbus ohio, covered it up. 😢 back in the 60's.
Hello from Kansas 🇺🇲
Wow that legs building complex looks like a giant anchor from above.
Great video! Great work!
Totally non of it makes sense to be building that many buildings, all so detailed, so quickly.
So sad all the street car trolls are almost all gone, I hate walking down the street and seeing so many damn cars, smelling up the air, causing ailments of many kinds, poisoning us..
that courthouse looks very European and unusual in that area in Ohio - the people in the area probably felt that it looked too European for American eyes
Love the conspiracy theorist touch!😂
There is a problem with cladding or ornamentation falling off buildings and landing on pedestrians.
The automobile and poor planning destroyed all these great buildings.
Downtown Columbus is just covered in parking lots
A lot of the old fire houses in Columbus had ornamental hose towers that were lowered to some degree due to disrepair or damage from from wind/storms. I imagine this was the case with the hotels and other buildings with ornate rooflines that were trimmed up. The one hospital you show and mention about having wasted space was designed in such a way to allow light and fresh air to more interior rooms. It is a shame they tore so much down, but no one willing to shell out money to restore these old buildings in poor economic times was their downfall. They were viewed as impractical and too expensive to renovate. Check out the Columbus Firefighters Union hall. An old train station built in an interesting pagoda style.
Ohio state uniersity basically destroyed the historic campus area.
I’ve been in Columbus over a decade now. The Truth of our world maybe fully disclosed on January 20th 2025 around 2pm EST.
These are fascinating arguments. Most of the images shown seem manipulated to me. I don't believe that America is the so-called Old World.
My great grandfather was one of the original architects of Columbus, Clarence Richards. So much was lost but it was native, there is no mystery to the Western architecture here...
no mystery you say? How boring is that?!
It's amazing to find out how many buildings just burnt and caught fire.
I think those crosses had to be antiquitech not really religious symbols - there are many of them on the buildings of stone and bricks - they are not made of wood or flimsy materials
Yes the 70s was a rough time in Columbus Ohio. Much was being torn down and rebuilt. That's when they put 70 East/West in the center of the city.. At minute 27:30, I don't know where Saint Francis Hospital is or was located. I'm 60 years old and I have no idea. Oh it's now Grant hospital downtown Columbus. I had to look it up.
13:12 they put that on the corner because it's fucking neat!
I had several classes in Orton Hall at Ohio State there’s a really beautiful library inside that is the best and most secluded compared to the main Thompson library
Will you do a video on Chillicothe Ohio???
union station: i was told once that the structure that remains is due to preservationist winning the battle to preserve but not before most had been demolished
Nice work my guy , i see this alot in small towns in ks and i live in a small town and i see things like this sticking out everwhere old Cartersville Ga like main and downtown ..
Just checked out Cartersville, nice lookin old world structures..
That copper spire at 16:30 looks like some heavy detail tech, just look at it!
I apologize. I was too quick to judge. After more thought I let the skeptic in me take over.. I guess it wouldn’t be hard for people in power along the way to just forge or make up stories, and people just took what they heard. It’s not like we haven’t been lied to before… Sorry my first comment was so negative. It’s best to consider all possibilities. Take care and keep doing these.
All this stuff is easily researched. This supposed CZcamsr seems to have a supposed problem with looking these so called things up. Franklinton was founded in 1797. This fact solves a lot of your mysteries. Really cool history, but could do without the tin foil hat brain worms

@@oldworldex what do I not understand? I’m genuinely interested. You seem to have a big problem with things changing. Logic doesn’t dictate art, you get that right? You got one thing right, your views are very abnormal. Again the history is cool though!!

Can anyone state this man's "theory" succinctly? Just be straight with what you think dude. This is the first video of his that I have watched and before watching more I'd like to know. The allusions made before I became to frustrated to enjoy were- "They" aren't telling us everything about the construction dates being much earlier. They took all of the ornate parts from the structures because....? To me this narration is about as specific as someone posting on social media "prayers needed" lol
Prayers always needed. This place is not what you think it is..
@@oldworldex Thanks for the reply. "This place" meaning? How do you know what I think? The point of the "prayer" comment was that they want attention by being purposefully vague, much like you are doing right now. Try saying what you mean.
@@tchrisou812 This place in which we all inhabit. Try a couple more videos on the subject matter if you like...or don't. The 'allusions' made are vague because they have to be.

I can't provide answers..but I encourage asking the questions.
@@oldworldex Now that I understand your reasoning and approach it has only made me more interested.

@@tchrisou812 I appreciate the conversation. There's a lot here to dive into..so much is speculation. I understand your perspective of 'coming in cold ' on this stuff.
