That was a great video. I really like the longer format.
Excellent video, as always! But I do wish you would pronounce "cupola" correctly: it is "KEW-puh-luh" with the accent on the first syllable, as any dictionary will inform you. It derives from a Latin word with a similar pronunciation. Thank you for the work you do in producing these videos. It is fascinating to learn about all these lost Victorian houses and mansions.
Much Extremely koOL content and information in this video… THANKS!
Another outstanding video, Ken. Your research and execution are impeccable.
Interesantes historias e imágenes que trasladan nuestras mente a una época dorada, de lujos , modernidad y un glamoroso estilo de vida reflejados en esas magnificas mansiones palaciegas
Thank you Ken for this remarkably well researched video. You do such an excellent job. ❤
WOW! Tearing down beautiful mansions and replacing them with ugly apartment buildings. SMH😮💨
❤❤❤
Great video! Very interesting.
Thank you It is so interesting. 😊😊
Another remarkable video! I really appreciate the work you put into these. Always a great history lesson!
One of your best 👍🏾🥂… very well done ! Thank you
I think I understand why these mansions were demolished. But it still makes me very sad that this state of affairs had to occur. You did a great job Ken. A great video filled with a lot of knowledge. Many thanks!
Once it is lost it is gone forever… thank goodness we have a few precious photos and plans!
Great video. Thx Ken😊
Only one millionaire? 😇
So many beautiful mansions torn down for ugly apartment buildings…capitalism!
Carlin. It's a big club and you ain't in it. A nice slice of history !
Agent Pendergast, which be yours?
I have enjoyed your post for a really long while. They were easy to fit into my day because they were short. Please continue your short format. Thank you. ❤🎉😊
Very Interesting, we are planning a trip to see Fort Tyron area. Wish they would have saved a few things in NYC, like the old Penn Station.Thanks
Oh America we have lost our soul of beauty
It's pronounced eye-DILL-ick. Calvert Vo.
This was a beautiful presentation of great domestic architecture.
However, it also shows the inability of people to preserve handsome structures for
later generations.
What a pity that most of these mansions and large houses no longer exist.
Thank you for posting this video.
Fascinating video and most enjoyable thank you. Peter Mac Donald Penang, Malaysia.
I love going down riverside, so many hidden gems ❤
6:24 why is no one asking why they were able to curve glass windows…
KEN, THIS IS DOWN RIGHT TREASONOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REMEMBER THAT I HAVE SPENT TIME IN NEW YORK CITY, AND TO PASS THROUGH THE AREA YOU ARE DESCRIBING TODAY, ONE HAS ALMOST NO CLUE AS TO WHAT ONCE WAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEEDLESS TO SAY, MORE THAN A CENTURY AGO, THIS AREA SHOULD HAVE BEEN DECLARED A DEMOLITION FREE ZONE AND A NATIONAL HISTORIC LANDMARK AND PARK PRESERVE, MAKING ANY ATTEMPT AT DESTRUCTION OF EVEN ONE OF THOSE LANDMARK ESTATES A SERIOUS CRIMINAL OFFENSE, WHICH IT WAS ANYWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE SHOULD STILL COLLABORATE ON SOME MATERIAL REGARDING DETROIT HARPER HOSPITAL, BUT FOR NOW, LONG LIVE THIS HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wonderful presentation. Thanks!
!(: Cool, THANKS ;)!
How is it possible that nobody wanted Charles Schwab's mansion and it sat abandoned for years, then torn down! My heart breaks as if It were my mansion it, has to be the most specular home I have ever seen built. Idiot Elon Musk is next, he already lost over 500 billion dollars but is till the richest idiot in the world with like 233 billion and losing, lol!😎😎Anywho, eight months after Rana's death, in September 1939, Charles Michael Schwab, age seventy-seven, died of a heart attack. Schwab's estate showed assets of $1.4 million and debts of $1.7 million, making him technically bankrupt when he died. He wasn't exactly penniless because he was hanging on to some jewels and crap, selling some in a never ending hustle like me, while avoiding bill collectors whenever he needed to eat or party or something, lol.. Oh, that house should have been saved, puts to shame the modern crap we see today, it hurts so much!😭😭😭😭
Love your channel and your presenting. Fantastic video. Loved watching that. It's so sad these beautiful homes are no longer there. What makes London so great, is we managed to preserve a lot more of our beautiful history. Riverside Drive looks ike a lovely place to be back then
Thank you, Ken. This is one of my favorite stations. Thank you for taking the time out and collecting all of these valuable pictures. It’s such a shame and it breaks my heart that some of these beautiful buildings are gone forever. What is wrong with people?
I was shocked to hear about Charles Schwab, losing all of his fortune and died with pennies. Yikes maybe he should’ve saved some of that money. It’s a Catch-22 instead of building the house worth almost 200,000,000 by today’s standards. Perhaps he should’ve saved some of that money, it seems kind of ridiculous, whatever happened to the wife did she just pack up and leave when he went broke they never said?
At least 1 mansion still exists on RSD….
The next time I am in New City, I will take a drive up the riverside to see if there are any more mansions remaining from the golden age, or if the area has been debased by classless apartment buildings
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing, I had no idea these castles existed. What a waste and how ugly things are now. Great job and research. Loved watching and learn so much. 🙂
My town Long Branch,N.J.all of Ocean Ave. looked like that.Not a trace left.😡😔
Currently sitting a few hundred feet away from Fort Tryon and Inwood Hill Park. I've seen photos of a mansion that was once in the park, and I found the original footprint of a large house in the woods. Oddly, there was no house, just a wrought iron fence encircling….nothing. Flat tarmac.
Might have been Mr. Seaman's house? He owned the park before giving it to the city. This was back when Inwood was called Tubby Hook.
I wonder what happened to all the artwork?
All because of crazy narcissistic bauhaus shit… Only few crazy minded people likes Bauhaus and all hate it.
Fantastic, thank you Ken!
