I grew up in Pittsburgh, I'm 65 this year. Every school I went to had marble bathrooms. Gorgeous scroll work, arches and beautiful woodwork. My parents had 3 different homes in the Point Breeze neighborhood, near Henry C. Frick's home, with lots of "old world charm". This city still has much of the great quality buildings today.
As a Pittsburgh girl, I wept while watching this. Our heritage is great, and no doubt the craftmanship is largely attributed to the vast number of Eastern European, as well as German immigrants in the 1800s. Don't forget the Italians. The Cathedral of Learning houses the Nationality Rooms... classrooms with interiors designed as living rooms of houses from each immigrant group in Pittsburgh. The rooms were designed by people from each group, with imported woods, materials, artifacts and art from those countries. At Christmas the rooms are decorated in the Christmas style from each country, complete with a tree. Tours are $5. Lol. At a recent church tour of the Catholic Cathedral in Oakland they said immigrants from 19 countries worked on the building. Another stunner is Sacred Heart in Shadyside There is a book on the building of it, and the husband and wife team that did the stained glass in the 1930s. The P&E station is preserved as Station Square with the Grand Concourse restaurant inside. Have you visited Pittsburgh? You should! There are also many mid-mod residential enclaves, largely influenced by Carnegie Tech (CMU now) and Frank Lloyd Wright. Thanks for this great video. Loved your "because of course and why not" humor throughout. It was only the Great Depression, after all. Look up a picture of the North Park Boat House, done during the CCC era. A County park of 3500 acres done in the 30's. The North Park swimming pool was the 2nd largest man made body of water at the time, filled with 240 million gallons of water. You could do a whole video on Pittsburgh churches. Buffalo too. "there's no place like home".
I'm currently working at the Carnegie music hall in Pittsburgh as a union painter, the theater is being restored. The whole Carnegie museum, library and music hall are unbelievably beautiful. There are 111 steps from the basement to the 3rd floor in the music hall part of the building, 77 steps from the 1st floor to the 3rd . The frescos on the walls in the hallways are incredibly done in a trump-l'oeil technique. Like you I have a difficult time believing it was built 124 years ago. The pipes on the stage in the music hall are part of a Orchestrion, like what's on a merry go round but Huge! It doesn't seem functional now. I appreciate your content. Take care.✨
Hello.. I'm new to you channel. I was born in Pittsburgh. Please mention the amount of smog that was on all buildings. Our house was covered! Back in the sixtys before EPA.. Another thought much of the city streets were leveled to a easier grade on the slope. Some as many as 10ft lower. On Mt.Washington it took many years before streets where paved..many would wash away. The Botanical Garden in the park is still open! It's beautiful! My father was a Civil Engineer for the city. His major projects were water management for flood control. And survey highway projects out and around parkway. Rt 376 Rt 51. That extended to Cranberry Pa. Northwest to Ohio. Thanks 😊
Pittsburgh natives and recent arrivals can thank the Pittsburgh History & Landmarks Foundation (PHLF) for the survival and maintenance of many of these old buildings - down to and including fine old row houses in Manchester and Oakland.
I am a native of Pittsburgh PA. I see it all around us, everyday !! The old photos are amazing to see, I actually live in a rowhouse that was used for the steelworkers. Now it's becoming a very trendy place within a mile or two of downtown. A lot of investment has been made but it is only Ten mins on a bus. I want to know the whole truth and Nothing But the truth ! Thank you, keep em coming about Pittsburgh too😊
One of the buildings off Grant street I was in after hours and found a way to go to a part of the building no one could go everything looked like something from 500 years ago the wood work was something else to see, From the outside it looks like something from the 50s that is just a shell hiding what is inside if you look on google earth you can see the top is not the same design as lower part. I was 12 years old at the time so it didn't matter to me but 55 years later I never forgot it
Thank you for compiling and posting all of this. You've just now became my favorite UA-cam channel! I was born in Pittsburgh (East Street) and have been in many of these buildings. As a kid in the 1950-60's we would sneak into the Gulf Building and the Cathedral of Learning to ride the elevators for fun! Also in the late 1960's as a teen, I worked repairing the slate roofs on a number of the cathedral churches. This always included a 'tour' of the insides of the churches. (Thank you Clement C. Newcamp, C&R Roofing/Heating, for taking me under your wing; from you I learned a lot about construction... and life).... This video makes me want to go back to "the Burgh" to see some of these buildings. Oliver High School on Marshall Avenue is also noteworthy. It's where my father went to High School; he walked to school from 2441 Sorrel Street, right down the hill from Oliver..
I went to college in Pittsburgh and the history and lore in the area is so rich. Definitely old world it’s hard to go unnoticed, Even on pitt campus - the cathedral of learning rules!!!
Pittsburgh was well designed with old buildings. I’m from Philadelphia so I have an appreciation for old buildings so I do like Pittsburgh. There’s also some old cool historical buildings in Brooklyn and New Jersey too but it seems a little more noticeable in Pittsburgh
Before Hollywood and all of Americas major cities there was Pennsylvania. The northeast (Scranton area) of the state was among the wealthiest areas of the world at the time as well
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!! Old World structures feel so incredibly familiar to me..as though this entire journey into our photographic past is more a process of remembrance, than discovery..
@@oldworldex hi, interesting video, regarding the idea that many of these buildings were destroyed on purpose..well it can be, but happens that because of my job I can often go into these old buildings, at the city I live at, and what I am finding in fact, is all the contrary, how much the shenanigans do for keeping them as much as possible, and think about it, if we are to accept that all this is much older...many of those buildings realy must go down, and having worked in public infrastructures, we dont realize how extremely difficult it is updating a city, and the maintenance, cities are real living creatures...once the routes of hundreds of years are settled and the flows of the water underground, just the size of the streets...you cannot go around adding or quitting material and weight wherever you want... I can tell you, many of these buildings are realy falling apart, indeed it is a miracle that there are still so many. The arguments given about their destruction, I think, respond more to a manouver of hiding/confusing the real date of construction
Pittsburgher here. I've always had the same questions about the true age of some of these structures. As well as the seemingly anachronistic feats of engineering when it comes to building these things on, within, through, and on the side of hills! I pass by that cathedral on Smithfield street almost every day, and can take some much better photos if you're interested.
At 2:41, we have the Union Trust Building, which took the place of a Cathedral! The design is by architect Frederick J. Osterling, who died aged 69 in 1934. Needless to say there are almost no construction details except ... started 1915, completed 1916, opened 1917. That's half a millon square feet on 15 floors at a cost of 1.5 million. The money came from magnate Henry Clay Frick, who had actually been co-responsible for a genuine mudflood elswwhere in Pennyslvania - because the dam-lake Lake Comemaugh (going back to the 1830s-1850s) became overfilled by rain in 1889 resulting in the collapse of the dam. The lake had been a country retreat for a large number of industrialists, who decided to pay out for the destruction of Johnstown, which was total - in that way avoiding inquiries and lawsuits ... and indeed comment of any kind. The death toll was over 2200 and even in those days the level of damage was of $17M (that would be half a billion now). A third of Pittsburgh was destroyed in 1845 by - of course - the "Great Fire", and that was then a city of just 20,000 - despite it going back to the mid-18th century. Yet there were said to be 1000 factories there in 1857. Realistically, then, almost nothing we see can be older than 1850 or so, following that timeline...
Excellent presentation... thank you. The loss of some of these wonders is enough to bring a tear to the eye. Happy to have been born & raised here... but so wish more of this glorious architecture had survived. Great stuff. More someday... please.
When I worked at the GE Locomotive plant in 1977. The interior work bay floors which housed metal machinery , cranes , etc. The flooring was composed of wood bricks the same size as masonry stone bricks.
Great job. A lot of those 'older' US cities were so wonderful in the past. Detroit, St Louis, Chicago, Pittsburgh, etc. Ah yes, the Carnegie libraries... we have one up here that I filmed. Interesting subject.
The Alleghany County Courthouse and Jail (connected by the copy of Venice's Bridge of Sighs) at 12:08 in the video is one of the great buildings built from Milford pink granite (my hometown in MA - other buildings constructed of it are the Boston Public Library, Glessner House in Chicago, and the old Penn Station). As to haziness: this was probably one of the filthiest cities in America due to the smoke belching from all the steel mills. There are old photos that look like it's midnight with street lights trying to cut through the dark - and they were taken at noon! The Carnegie Institute is the art museum of Pittsburgh; and yes, those arches are a display. You are spot on about the level of craftsmanship - and that it is sadly lacking today. I have to disagree about the organs. There are many companies/craftspeople who specialize in restoring pipe organs. Heinz Hall (Pittsburgh Symphony) was the old Lowes Penn Theater. The Heinz family funded the restoration. Edgar Kaufmann, Sr. owned the department store and built Falling Water (Frank Lloyd Wright architect). On my first trip to Pittsburgh Kaufmann's, Horne's, and a branch of Gimbels were still in operation. Remember, Pittsburgh had more Fortune 500 companies than any other city except New York. US Steel, Alcoa, PPG, Heinz, Gulf Oil......
Whenever I consider how many buildings, bridges, etc. all across North America they tell us they put up in such a short time frame I always find myself asking where all those places got all of the brick, stone, glass, STAIN GLASS, wood, etc that everyone would have clearly needed all at the same time and how they got it all delivered in such a timely manner seeing as a lot of stuff would have been shipped from fairly far away.
They just worked a lot harder than us is all. We have all this tech and build structures that need constant repair yet they constructed ingenious structures that are still a marvel. All with hammers and horses they figured out the secrets to free energy yet we have rolling outages. They sure were dumb, huh?! Consult with history books for our answers;-)
@@Dommommy one friend of mine told me, "they didn't have TV to watch ?!" The Paradigm of contagion, the so-called moon landings, and the shape of our Realm and our history, Evoke cognitive dissonance in people more than any other subjects.
Cities like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Syracuse, Milwaukee, Buffalo, Indianapolis, that have been disparaged and the brunt of many jokes, are the cities with the most out of place and glorious architecture. The Three Stooges have a film called "Half shot shooters," (1937) in which Larry is asked by an army recruiter if he was born in this country. Larry replied, "No Milwaukee" the architecture must have seemed otherworldly to someone going into these cities for the first time.
As a roofer , I have one thing to add here . These old world houses and buildings (that aren't flat roofs) usually have SLATE and copper roofs , that level of manufacturing ALONE makes me scratch my head . Having ripped and replaced many slate roofs in Boston/Harvard ... it's crazy to think how they did that . Also , a lot of slate roofs that I've replaced have it ripped and replaced with asphalt shingles and it's a shame . Only a building with the proper support can handle the weight of all of the stone up there . Why take away from that beauty with shingles , yah know ? It's another dying art form ... love your content bud .
@oldworldex The old flat roofs I've ripped up are a hot mixed tar pour , sulfur based (literal pitch) and paper , in layers . It burns like hell when it gets on your skin , especially in the summer months . It looks like 6" of liquid coal has been spread and solidified across the entire surface . Anywho , you're welcome bud ! Go Canucks , aye ?
I've never seen many of these images before and I've been to Pittsburgh quite a few times. From what I remember, many of the hilly neighborhoods still have a lot of the old homes but most have been restructured to become apartments. Very old neighborhoods. I should go back some time with the eyes I see with now.
@@oldworldex If you ever do go, word to the wise, everything looks the same in some parts! There are old train overpasses that you can drive under in the neighborhoods that all look the same! Gorgeous, but similar. I've been lost in Pittsburgh to the point where I started to get nervous 😂😂. I'm telling you because no-one warned me. Don't go during the winter, there's a reason why everyone who lives there has dings in their cars. Other than that, enjoy yourself!
@@Dommommy I'm about 90 minutes SW of Pittsburgh. Potholes are brutal especially in Winter ☺️ Haven't been in several years, want to spend a day seeing the 'sights' before cold sets in. The air is much cleaner but so much industry has been lost. Ps: Are you in Pa?
I just want to know if the indigenous people who were living here before the Europeans came were using/living inside these as opposed to living in a teepee?? Or if there were any people using them and they were killed off and their property confiscated?? Or were they empty??, because of the mud flood that wiped out a lot of the population?? (Some theories).
37:45 Pittsburgh native here and parishioner of St. Paul's. St. Paul's is the Roman Catholic Cathedral of Pittsburgh and it is alive and well. There is a St. Peter and Paul that is abandoned, and the interior you showed was from St. Peter and Paul.
The University of Pittsburgh Cathedral of Learning was built from 1926 to 1936. It's very awe-inspiring when you first enter. You mention how old everything looks, even though some of the buildings were not as old as you make them out to be. Also, you state in one photo how the smoke stacks and haze looked fake. However, you fail to mention just how industrial the city was. With the many mills running 24/7 and the amount of smoke and dirt released from the mills, buildings, and anything left outside, quickly became covered with a thick black soot. There are accounts how, in the middle of the day, the smoke was so bad it looked like it was nighttime.
i threw this on as a background piece to watch on my second screen while working. Now i have to research "Old World Energy and Buildings" and "The Tartarian Empire" "Collective Mind Wipe/WW2 Conspiracy" because even though the logical side of my brain says - "dont waste the time" the ADHD side will not let it go without confirming/disproving as much information on this subject as possible. Thanks for that... (also, great video.)
New subscriber really enjoyed your video I was just on Shady Ave a few days ago I live in Pittsburgh What I noticed was architecturally the building's seems to just be the tops of the building... I noticed in your pictures that they whited out the background Lots of secret societies doing rituals underground here Thanks for sharing your time and energy with us Have a fabtabulous abundant Life
The burgh was very dirty during the iron and steel age but it is not dirty now. and if you find some of these buildings questionable, a lot of them still stand and you can come and see for yourself. It is the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall.
Many projects were done with the CCC projects after the Depression like North Park and the stone boathouse, and the stone rails on Blackburn Rd going to Sewickley
"Not enough Romans" , historians complain of the validity of the Roman Empire. "Not enough time, craftsmen, money" is my complaint of how far along the US, in 1850, is - in the way of railroads, canals, paved streets bridges and glorious buildings.
I love the buildings, definitely doesn't add up. My favourite at the moment is the perfect curb work/sidewalks/and streets. It's a dead giveaway to me that all of this has been around much longer than we're told. Then there's the excavations that would have been required, often on city streets in close quarters so as not to disturb the neighbouring building. European farmers with shovels? African slaves? Convicts without a care? come on people, that dog don't hunt!
@@oldworldex If you woke up to find your building was 6 feet deeper than yesterday you'd probably pour a new 'sidewalk' all the way around it - tight against the building and 6 -8 inches taller than the new grade. That's why I think the curb work is 'ours' while the building is 'theirs'.
@@oldworldex The "200 State prisoners conscripted" story, constructing a government building sounds like a recipe for retribution! Similar to the story we're told of Romans conscripting the sons of the newly conquered - whose parents they killed - in building their aqueducts (what a great opportunity to get back at the Romans by building sloppy) Yet, some of those aqueducts stand to this day.
Hi! This is one of my favorites by far!! I AM ALMOST SPEECHLESS :) There is texture everywhere!!! It really stood out to me ....the county courthouse does not look like a design for a courthouse.....the Cathedral learning center....insane! The bridges are like no others I have seen, and so so many....the Heinz chapple snd Heinz Hall are out of this world....interesting how they have recorded building during the grest depression....old timers still hord their money from living back than....if there are any left living who lived back than...yeah we are all starving while these buildings were being flown up??? No way!...also how much were they charging for staying one night in one of those hotels? How much was the salary of the builders who built these buildings? You would never make your money back! I would love to visit this city and walk around....I see clearly why it was a longer video! Overall one of my favorites and thank you!! Pipe organs galore...I have yo do more about the semitic windows and organs! Ok looking forward to the next one....
This is why Columbus, and the Brits and the kkkhazars came for us. No wonder. 😢😮💨🥲 This level of *BLACK EXCELLENCE* is SUPERNATURAL. 💪🏿🦁👑😮 👑🟥⬛🟩👑 The Hebrew is built DIFF. Godbless y'all ☝🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Excellent video, thank you for sharing. My great great grandparents Hoffman immigrated from Germany in 1864 to Pennsylvania. My great grandfather then moved to Ashland, KY were he worked at Armco Steel. He was also a Masonic member.
Well those structures are haunted and I get to hear the lies they wrote for the buildings history whilst watching some Paranormal channels. In the last one - a hospital on a hill was an obvious mudflooder which went over the heads of the Ghost hunter. Another one (Prison) had a Tour Guide claim; The inmates built this part of the Prison.😮 Sure they did in 1895 or whatever.
Another thing is too as you say it looks weathered back then in Pittsburgh we had steel mills going on there was so much stuff and stuff in the are they used to call this place like Hell's kitchen hell with the lid blown off or something and all that stuff on Mount Washington you say looks like mud flooded Shell Rock bro
Hello from Butler County Pa the Birth Place of the Jeep. They had an elaborate electric troll system 1880s to the 1930s that went from Butler Pa to Pittsburgh. Petrolia Pa is my hometown there were 250k people in this little valley in the 1860s to early 1900s in the Oil Boom days. My Grandfather was a County historian with THOUSANDS of old Photos from the 1880s to the 1970s of Butler County. They Built these buildings to stand the tests of time and they would have if they weren't torn down for no real reason at all other than out with the old in the new. I most definitely agree that WE ARE LIED TO by the powers that be. This PROVES that the Bankers Robber Barons Ultra rich run this world. The United States constitution act of 1871 was passed in 1871 READ IT this explains why they were destroying the old world. In that they Run this Country like a Corporation. Politics Republicans or Democrat ITS ALL A DISTRACTION always HAS been so we ALL don't go digging into the past. Then label TRUTH SEEKERS crazy or conspiracy theorists. We are never told the truth about the past or present we are not Robber Barron's or Ultra Rich. Our own government doesn't even run this country. Thanks you Sir for your research definitely makes you think amd if it DONT you need a reality check. Do a Video on the Oil Boom of Western Pa. Western Pa is RICH in history with Old Iron furnaces mining oil Lumber farming ect. Western Pa industry supported old world Pittsburgh. There were Definitely More people in the old world than we are told I 100 percent agree. To much infrastructure and well built at that for only 50k or so people EVEN in the surrounding communities which spread far from Pittsburgh North South East and West.
Awesome research I’m going up to Pennsylvania in about a month and do some boots on the ground work if I get good images or video I’ll send them to you
I appreciate that Marie. I've noticed it comes in a bit loud between narration. I'm no master when it comes to video making. I'll keep it in mind...after all..we wouldn't want to drown out my narration..
The polished collum picture 19.31 time stamp you can see a little black square thats how dirty it actually was back then in Pittsburgh from the smog they left it as a reminder
What do you propose these buildings represent? The comments questioning the history of these structures leaves me baffled......what do you propose these photos represent if not the actual historical narrative that exists ? The comments presented are speculative and very misleading.
@@sweetpeach3649Some have theorized a natural cataclysm which changed the environment, and affected the Morphogenic Field, in the 19 th century; thereby, affecting people's memory, and contributing to mass amnesia of the survivors.
You talk a lot about questioning the timeline of construction of these buildings. I am interested in what alternative timeline you propose, and where I could find more information on this topic?
I've got almost 200 videos on the topic you could dive into. Also I have linked many of the other content creators in this area on my channel. There is much to unravel...enjoy!
Everything the old world built was so beautiful it makes me mental just to look at it. How could the robber barons be so psychotic that they would destroy it all rather than revive it?
It wasn't the robber barons of the 19th or early 20th century that did the damage, It mostly happened post WWII. Mellon, Carnegie, Heinz, Frick, and others were the bankroll for those buildings and bridges. From mid 1800s to early 1900s Pittsburgh was the richest place in the world. If you ever get the chance do an architectural tour there, allow a week or so to really see it because there are some spectacular buildings in the area. Its hosts engineers and engineering students quite often just to study the bridges. It is one of the few, if not the only, place in the world that has examples of every type of bridge construction. There are 446 of them in total, the most of any city in the world.
It's from the steel mills. Many of the black soot on the buildings has been removed to reveal the original stone. You can find pics from the steel era when there was so much smoke people had to shower twice a day. And day looked like night.
I was thinking that too, but then again, many of those photos were taken at the time when there was supposed to be a lot of smog. I was amazed at how clear many of those photos were.
I enjoyed this presentation but it was confusing. There’s such an air of skepticism throughout the narration (along with some wonderment) yet there is this repetitive music of triumph.
Uhh… did everyone else just totally miss when he takes a hard turn from architecture appreciation into denying the official narrative of history and expressing his “expert” opinions that these buildings are ancient and can’t have been build between 1870 and 1940 as “Hollywood claims”. Like, dudes a crackpot.
it's so ironic the only critics to this research are literally never able to come up with anything else but empty insults and quoting the narrative itself as if it somehow was self-evident. not a clue about construction in general not to mention an idea of how this type of architecture could have been built, as we probably couldn't build it today even with the modern technology. did they really forget to teach what is their history based on or didn't you just even listen at the school? 😂
You obviously have no idea what these pictures actually are. If you want to do a video like this you should know what you are talking about and as someone born and raised in Pittsburgh you do not.
why were the people of Europe coming here suddenly ? what triggered this big move? I can understand Ireland with famine but why Poland? Germany? Chech Republic??? etc.
Thanks for doing the video, the pictures were nice, but really, why are you so surprised at all the various stone and brick buildings? It is nothing new, natural materials have been used in construction all over the world since before the golden age of the Egyptians. These Pittsburgh buildings are not very old, they are just old, the Notre-Dame de Paris is very old. The dome of the rock in Jerusalem is very old. The pyramids are very, very old.
@@musiccitymanpresents That's what I'm doing with the channel. If you want answers, that's something I am seeking but don't claim to have. It's all speculation...and I know we have been lied to.
@@oldworldex OK that is somewhat more clarifying, I think you believe we the citizens of the US are being lied to about construction techniques? If so who is doing it, and why would they do it? Knowing that people only lie to gain some sort of advantage over others, what advantage could that possibly be?
If you’re interested in seeing something very very old, the Grand Canyon has rocks that’s literally a billion years old. There’s also land formations in Sedona Arizona where it used to be an ocean millions of years ago
by "facts" do you mean the official narrative? :-D endless walls of text but literally never anything about how the horse drawn people would have been able to construct cities that we couldn't probably construct today with all our modern technology if we tried?
It's funny to me when you guys make these videos because here in Pittsburgh that Ivy will grow on your house in one summer until you guys apparently don't know s*** about construction because a crew of five guys can build a house in about I don't know 5 weeks I don't really care what material it's made out of it doesn't take like 20 years to build a home and all this stuff is only from the 1800s there's records of this stuff people knew how to write they wrote everything down it's not like every one of these things was built by the government it's a conspiracy to keeping it from you if there was something running on some kind of magical power there's still families in Pittsburgh that are related to the people that would have been there and they would say something about it
Do love your work you really dig deep ! I simply don't have time to watch all my channels I follow ,,, but when your notification hits up I'm on it 💯 👌

Pittsburgh was well designed with old buildings. I’m from Philadelphia so I have an appreciation for old buildings so I do like Pittsburgh. There’s also some old cool historical buildings in Brooklyn and New Jersey too but it seems a little more noticeable in Pittsburgh
They didn’t need technology to cut and lay stonework. Cathedral University was built after my dad was born in 1925.
During its peak, (1830-1930) Pittsburgh had more millionaires than New York City.
"millionaires row" 😉
True!
Before Hollywood and all of Americas major cities there was Pennsylvania. The northeast (Scranton area) of the state was among the wealthiest areas of the world at the time as well
St. Louis was kind of similar and amazing but now it’s terrible. But at least Pittsburgh is still good or at least decent enough
Yeah sure, you’d be a millionaire too if you took over all these buildings (stole/“founded”) for FREE, then rent them out to the city and businesses!
This was thorough, so thank you.
Pittsburgh is THE steel center at that time.
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!! Old World structures feel so incredibly familiar to me..as though this entire journey into our photographic past is more a process of remembrance, than discovery..
well said! and thank you..
@@oldworldex hi, interesting video, regarding the idea that many of these buildings were destroyed on purpose..well it can be, but happens that because of my job I can often go into these old buildings, at the city I live at, and what I am finding in fact, is all the contrary, how much the shenanigans do for keeping them as much as possible, and think about it, if we are to accept that all this is much older...many of those buildings realy must go down, and having worked in public infrastructures, we dont realize how extremely difficult it is updating a city, and the maintenance, cities are real living creatures...once the routes of hundreds of years are settled and the flows of the water underground, just the size of the streets...you cannot go around adding or quitting material and weight wherever you want... I can tell you, many of these buildings are realy falling apart, indeed it is a miracle that there are still so many. The arguments given about their destruction, I think, respond more to a manouver of hiding/confusing the real date of construction
Pittsburgher here. I've always had the same questions about the true age of some of these structures. As well as the seemingly anachronistic feats of engineering when it comes to building these things on, within, through, and on the side of hills! I pass by that cathedral on Smithfield street almost every day, and can take some much better photos if you're interested.
It's great to hear this from a local. Send me anything you like.. oldworldexplorations@gmail.com
At 2:41, we have the Union Trust Building, which took the place of a Cathedral! The design is by architect Frederick J. Osterling, who died aged 69 in 1934. Needless to say there are almost no construction details except ... started 1915, completed 1916, opened 1917. That's half a millon square feet on 15 floors at a cost of 1.5 million. The money came from magnate Henry Clay Frick, who had actually been co-responsible for a genuine mudflood elswwhere in Pennyslvania - because the dam-lake Lake Comemaugh (going back to the 1830s-1850s) became overfilled by rain in 1889 resulting in the collapse of the dam. The lake had been a country retreat for a large number of industrialists, who decided to pay out for the destruction of Johnstown, which was total - in that way avoiding inquiries and lawsuits ... and indeed comment of any kind. The death toll was over 2200 and even in those days the level of damage was of $17M (that would be half a billion now).
A third of Pittsburgh was destroyed in 1845 by - of course - the "Great Fire", and that was then a city of just 20,000 - despite it going back to the mid-18th century. Yet there were said to be 1000 factories there in 1857. Realistically, then, almost nothing we see can be older than 1850 or so, following that timeline...
You came up im my feed as I am.watching a lot of Old World research. Ty
Excellent presentation... thank you. The loss of some of these wonders is enough to bring a tear to the eye. Happy to have been born & raised here... but so wish more of this glorious architecture had survived. Great stuff. More someday... please.
a great city with interesting and vibrant history. I moved after college because I could not handle the winters
On the opposite end, there was a commenter on some other video who said that he wants to move to western PA because he cannot handle the Texas summers
When I worked at the GE Locomotive plant in 1977. The interior work bay floors which housed metal machinery , cranes , etc. The flooring was composed of wood bricks the same size as masonry stone bricks.
Great job. A lot of those 'older' US cities were so wonderful in the past. Detroit, St Louis, Chicago, Pittsburgh, etc. Ah yes, the Carnegie libraries... we have one up here that I filmed. Interesting subject.
will check it out! Got your email...will be in touch.
@@oldworldex Got it... thanks.
Exciting! New video! Thank uuuuuu!!! This channel is so wonderful!!!!!!
Thank you too!
I love this channel ..! In fact it's in my top three .
The Alleghany County Courthouse and Jail (connected by the copy of Venice's Bridge of Sighs) at 12:08 in the video is one of the great buildings built from Milford pink granite (my hometown in MA - other buildings constructed of it are the Boston Public Library, Glessner House in Chicago, and the old Penn Station).
As to haziness: this was probably one of the filthiest cities in America due to the smoke belching from all the steel mills. There are old photos that look like it's midnight with street lights trying to cut through the dark - and they were taken at noon! The Carnegie Institute is the art museum of Pittsburgh; and yes, those arches are a display.
You are spot on about the level of craftsmanship - and that it is sadly lacking today.
I have to disagree about the organs. There are many companies/craftspeople who specialize in restoring pipe organs. Heinz Hall (Pittsburgh Symphony) was the old Lowes Penn Theater. The Heinz family funded the restoration.
Edgar Kaufmann, Sr. owned the department store and built Falling Water (Frank Lloyd Wright architect). On my first trip to Pittsburgh Kaufmann's, Horne's, and a branch of Gimbels were still in operation.
Remember, Pittsburgh had more Fortune 500 companies than any other city except New York. US Steel, Alcoa, PPG, Heinz, Gulf Oil......
Whenever I consider how many buildings, bridges, etc. all across North America they tell us they put up in such a short time frame I always find myself asking where all those places got all of the brick, stone, glass, STAIN GLASS, wood, etc that everyone would have clearly needed all at the same time and how they got it all delivered in such a timely manner seeing as a lot of stuff would have been shipped from fairly far away.
They just worked a lot harder than us is all. We have all this tech and build structures that need constant repair yet they constructed ingenious structures that are still a marvel. All with hammers and horses they figured out the secrets to free energy yet we have rolling outages. They sure were dumb, huh?! Consult with history books for our answers;-)
Don't be a troublemaker😅😅
@@Dommommy one friend of mine told me, "they didn't have TV to watch ?!" The Paradigm of contagion, the so-called moon landings, and the shape of our Realm and our history, Evoke cognitive dissonance in people more than any other subjects.
Cities like Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Syracuse, Milwaukee, Buffalo, Indianapolis, that have been disparaged and the brunt of many jokes, are the cities with the most out of place and glorious architecture. The Three Stooges have a film called "Half shot shooters," (1937) in which Larry is asked by an army recruiter if he was born in this country. Larry replied, "No Milwaukee" the architecture must have seemed otherworldly to someone going into these cities for the first time.
The massive church in the middle of the city is insane. It is so massive and out of place haha Edit : I guess its the damn courthouse.
Good video n’at. Always thought Central Catholic was odd🖤💛🤟✌️
As a roofer , I have one thing to add here . These old world houses and buildings (that aren't flat roofs) usually have SLATE and copper roofs , that level of manufacturing ALONE makes me scratch my head . Having ripped and replaced many slate roofs in Boston/Harvard ... it's crazy to think how they did that . Also , a lot of slate roofs that I've replaced have it ripped and replaced with asphalt shingles and it's a shame . Only a building with the proper support can handle the weight of all of the stone up there . Why take away from that beauty with shingles , yah know ? It's another dying art form ... love your content bud .
valuable insight here thanks for adding this.
@oldworldex The old flat roofs I've ripped up are a hot mixed tar pour , sulfur based (literal pitch) and paper , in layers . It burns like hell when it gets on your skin , especially in the summer months . It looks like 6" of liquid coal has been spread and solidified across the entire surface . Anywho , you're welcome bud ! Go Canucks , aye ?
I've never seen many of these images before and I've been to Pittsburgh quite a few times. From what I remember, many of the hilly neighborhoods still have a lot of the old homes but most have been restructured to become apartments. Very old neighborhoods. I should go back some time with the eyes I see with now.
I was surprised to find this much in Pittsburgh...I'd love to go sometime..
@@oldworldex If you ever do go, word to the wise, everything looks the same in some parts! There are old train overpasses that you can drive under in the neighborhoods that all look the same! Gorgeous, but similar. I've been lost in Pittsburgh to the point where I started to get nervous 😂😂. I'm telling you because no-one warned me. Don't go during the winter, there's a reason why everyone who lives there has dings in their cars. Other than that, enjoy yourself!
@@Dommommy
I'm about 90 minutes SW of Pittsburgh. Potholes are brutal especially in Winter ☺️ Haven't been in several years, want to spend a day seeing the 'sights' before cold sets in.
The air is much cleaner but so much industry has been lost.
Ps: Are you in Pa?
@@michele-33 I'm in Ohio, 15 minutes west of Sharon and about an hour or so northwest of Pittsburgh.
I just want to know if the indigenous people who were living here before the Europeans came were using/living inside these as opposed to living in a teepee?? Or if there were any people using them and they were killed off and their property confiscated?? Or were they empty??, because of the mud flood that wiped out a lot of the population?? (Some theories).
37:45 Pittsburgh native here and parishioner of St. Paul's. St. Paul's is the Roman Catholic Cathedral of Pittsburgh and it is alive and well. There is a St. Peter and Paul that is abandoned, and the interior you showed was from St. Peter and Paul.
Thank you...I don't mind the length .... simply beautiful. So sad though.
The University of Pittsburgh Cathedral of Learning was built from 1926 to 1936. It's very awe-inspiring when you first enter. You mention how old everything looks, even though some of the buildings were not as old as you make them out to be. Also, you state in one photo how the smoke stacks and haze looked fake. However, you fail to mention just how industrial the city was. With the many mills running 24/7 and the amount of smoke and dirt released from the mills, buildings, and anything left outside, quickly became covered with a thick black soot. There are accounts how, in the middle of the day, the smoke was so bad it looked like it was nighttime.
i threw this on as a background piece to watch on my second screen while working. Now i have to research "Old World Energy and Buildings" and "The Tartarian Empire" "Collective Mind Wipe/WW2 Conspiracy" because even though the logical side of my brain says - "dont waste the time" the ADHD side will not let it go without confirming/disproving as much information on this subject as possible.
Thanks for that...
(also, great video.)
Tartarian architecture at its finest
New subscriber really enjoyed your video
I was just on Shady Ave a few days ago
I live in Pittsburgh
What I noticed was architecturally the building's seems to just be the tops of the building... I noticed in your pictures that they whited out the background
Lots of secret societies doing rituals underground here
Thanks for sharing your time and energy with us
Have a fabtabulous abundant Life
Same to you...thanks for being here!
Feels more like Gotham City... lmao
The building's prior to this timeline were even more exquisite
Have a peaceful day
@@surelyknott5835The Batman movie The Dark Knight Rises was filmed there, so technically it is Gotham City....😅😅😅😅😅
The burgh was very dirty during the iron and steel age but it is not dirty now. and if you find some of these buildings questionable, a lot of them still stand and you can come and see for yourself. It is the Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall.
Questionable as to the story of their origins..not whether or not they exist.
@@oldworldex I thought you where referring to the architectural aspects.
Pittsburgh and Lake Erie RR Station. Bldg is still there
Many projects were done with the CCC projects after the Depression like North Park and the stone boathouse, and the stone rails on Blackburn Rd going to Sewickley
"Not enough Romans" , historians complain of the validity of the Roman Empire.
"Not enough time, craftsmen, money" is my complaint of how far along the US, in 1850, is - in the way of railroads, canals, paved streets bridges and glorious buildings.
I love the buildings, definitely doesn't add up. My favourite at the moment is the perfect curb work/sidewalks/and streets. It's a dead giveaway to me that all of this has been around much longer than we're told. Then there's the excavations that would have been required, often on city streets in close quarters so as not to disturb the neighbouring building. European farmers with shovels? African slaves? Convicts without a care? come on people, that dog don't hunt!
@@oldworldex If you woke up to find your building was 6 feet deeper than yesterday you'd probably pour a new 'sidewalk' all the way around it - tight against the building and 6 -8 inches taller than the new grade. That's why I think the curb work is 'ours' while the building is 'theirs'.
@@oldworldex The "200 State prisoners conscripted" story, constructing a government building sounds like a recipe for retribution! Similar to the story we're told of Romans conscripting the sons of the newly conquered - whose parents they killed - in building their aqueducts (what a great opportunity to get back at the Romans by building sloppy) Yet, some of those aqueducts stand to this day.
@@jthepickle7 Interesting..
Also there is a street in Shadyside paved with wooden bricks that's still there
which street?
Hi! This is one of my favorites by far!! I AM ALMOST SPEECHLESS :) There is texture everywhere!!! It really stood out to me ....the county courthouse does not look like a design for a courthouse.....the Cathedral learning center....insane! The bridges are like no others I have seen, and so so many....the Heinz chapple snd Heinz Hall are out of this world....interesting how they have recorded building during the grest depression....old timers still hord their money from living back than....if there are any left living who lived back than...yeah we are all starving while these buildings were being flown up??? No way!...also how much were they charging for staying one night in one of those hotels? How much was the salary of the builders who built these buildings? You would never make your money back! I would love to visit this city and walk around....I see clearly why it was a longer video! Overall one of my favorites and thank you!! Pipe organs galore...I have yo do more about the semitic windows and organs! Ok looking forward to the next one....
This is why Columbus, and the Brits and the kkkhazars came for us. No wonder. 😢😮💨🥲

Excellent video, thank you for sharing. My great great grandparents Hoffman immigrated from Germany in 1864 to Pennsylvania. My great grandfather then moved to Ashland, KY were he worked at Armco Steel. He was also a Masonic member.
👍👏😊 Thanks
Well those structures are haunted and I get to hear the lies they wrote for the buildings history whilst watching some Paranormal channels.
In the last one - a hospital on a hill was an obvious mudflooder which went over the heads of the Ghost hunter. Another one (Prison) had a Tour Guide claim;
The inmates built this part of the Prison.😮
Sure they did in 1895 or whatever.
Nice one mate.
Cheers.

I’ve been to London
Always gotta look for painted people in these photos. Even found painted buildings, carts ect
great show
Thanks George!
Are your referencing Tartaria and the MudFlood.?
something along those lines...our hidden history.
Another thing is too as you say it looks weathered back then in Pittsburgh we had steel mills going on there was so much stuff and stuff in the are they used to call this place like Hell's kitchen hell with the lid blown off or something and all that stuff on Mount Washington you say looks like mud flooded Shell Rock bro
Hello from Butler County Pa the Birth Place of the Jeep. They had an elaborate electric troll system 1880s to the 1930s that went from Butler Pa to Pittsburgh. Petrolia Pa is my hometown there were 250k people in this little valley in the 1860s to early 1900s in the Oil Boom days. My Grandfather was a County historian with THOUSANDS of old Photos from the 1880s to the 1970s of Butler County. They Built these buildings to stand the tests of time and they would have if they weren't torn down for no real reason at all other than out with the old in the new. I most definitely agree that WE ARE LIED TO by the powers that be. This PROVES that the Bankers Robber Barons Ultra rich run this world. The United States constitution act of 1871 was passed in 1871 READ IT this explains why they were destroying the old world. In that they Run this Country like a Corporation. Politics Republicans or Democrat ITS ALL A DISTRACTION always HAS been so we ALL don't go digging into the past. Then label TRUTH SEEKERS crazy or conspiracy theorists. We are never told the truth about the past or present we are not Robber Barron's or Ultra Rich. Our own government doesn't even run this country. Thanks you Sir for your research definitely makes you think amd if it DONT you need a reality check. Do a Video on the Oil Boom of Western Pa. Western Pa is RICH in history with Old Iron furnaces mining oil Lumber farming ect. Western Pa industry supported old world Pittsburgh. There were Definitely More people in the old world than we are told I 100 percent agree. To much infrastructure and well built at that for only 50k or so people EVEN in the surrounding communities which spread far from Pittsburgh North South East and West.
Awesome research I’m going up to Pennsylvania in about a month and do some boots on the ground work if I get good images or video I’ll send them to you
I enjoy your narration very much. However, the background music is far too loud. Very distracting.
Can't have it all ( marie ) ☮️👍🏼
I appreciate that Marie. I've noticed it comes in a bit loud between narration. I'm no master when it comes to video making. I'll keep it in mind...after all..we wouldn't want to drown out my narration..
The polished collum picture 19.31 time stamp you can see a little black square thats how dirty it actually was back then in Pittsburgh from the smog they left it as a reminder
Are Star Forts made to fight off the Giants ?
What do you propose these buildings represent? The comments questioning the history of these structures leaves me baffled......what do you propose these photos represent if not the actual historical narrative that exists ? The comments presented are speculative and very misleading.
I propose we have been lied to. The ego blinds us from even considering the possibility.
How was the Old World hijacked? Genuinely curious.
me too....that's why I explore.
@@oldworldex fair enough
@@sweetpeach3649Some have theorized a natural cataclysm which changed the environment, and affected the Morphogenic Field, in the 19 th century; thereby, affecting people's memory, and contributing to mass amnesia of the survivors.
The trees, died giveaway
Are you referring to how young our current tree line is, or?
Does anyone know what the 3 doorways on so many of these buildings symbolize?
It's a good question..worth investigating further.
This is very interesting, I propose that the warmongers of the world had a lot to do with this and there still at work 😢😢
You talk a lot about questioning the timeline of construction of these buildings. I am interested in what alternative timeline you propose, and where I could find more information on this topic?
I've got almost 200 videos on the topic you could dive into. Also I have linked many of the other content creators in this area on my channel. There is much to unravel...enjoy!
We weren’t great once upon a time.
Praise Jesus
Is there a reason why?

Everything the old world built was so beautiful it makes me mental just to look at it. How could the robber barons be so psychotic that they would destroy it all rather than revive it?
Maybe they're not human...or have embraced their non human side?
@@oldworldex I think someone saw one of them on a plane recently. Those mother f*ckers are not real!
Bc they cannot create it & they wanted to destroy some evidence but the whole Washington DC !
Now we understand the United States lied.
It wasn't the robber barons of the 19th or early 20th century that did the damage, It mostly happened post WWII. Mellon, Carnegie, Heinz, Frick, and others were the bankroll for those buildings and bridges. From mid 1800s to early 1900s Pittsburgh was the richest place in the world. If you ever get the chance do an architectural tour there, allow a week or so to really see it because there are some spectacular buildings in the area. Its hosts engineers and engineering students quite often just to study the bridges. It is one of the few, if not the only, place in the world that has examples of every type of bridge construction. There are 446 of them in total, the most of any city in the world.
Could very very old be coal soot?
It's from the steel mills. Many of the black soot on the buildings has been removed to reveal the original stone. You can find pics from the steel era when there was so much smoke people had to shower twice a day. And day looked like night.
I was thinking that too, but then again, many of those photos were taken at the time when there was supposed to be a lot of smog. I was amazed at how clear many of those photos were.
I enjoyed this presentation but it was confusing. There’s such an air of skepticism throughout the narration (along with some wonderment) yet there is this repetitive music of triumph.
Uhh… did everyone else just totally miss when he takes a hard turn from architecture appreciation into denying the official narrative of history and expressing his “expert” opinions that these buildings are ancient and can’t have been build between 1870 and 1940 as “Hollywood claims”. Like, dudes a crackpot.
Apparently you're the one who missed what I was trying to convey. Thanks for stopping in though..
it's so ironic the only critics to this research are literally never able to come up with anything else but empty insults and quoting the narrative itself as if it somehow was self-evident. not a clue about construction in general not to mention an idea of how this type of architecture could have been built, as we probably couldn't build it today even with the modern technology. did they really forget to teach what is their history based on or didn't you just even listen at the school? 😂
stay the hell outta my city!
Have you heard of the Atlanta underground and the viaducts?
Basically proves there was a mud burial or something along those lines
I have not. I'll be diving into it thank you!

You obviously have no idea what these pictures actually are. If you want to do a video like this you should know what you are talking about and as someone born and raised in Pittsburgh you do not.
why were the people of Europe coming here suddenly ? what triggered this big move? I can understand Ireland with famine but why Poland? Germany? Chech Republic??? etc.
Opportunity in the steel mills. Pittsburgh was the hub of steel and armaments production.
Thanks for doing the video, the pictures were nice, but really, why are you so surprised at all the various stone and brick buildings? It is nothing new, natural materials have been used in construction all over the world since before the golden age of the Egyptians. These Pittsburgh buildings are not very old, they are just old, the Notre-Dame de Paris is very old. The dome of the rock in Jerusalem is very old. The pyramids are very, very old.
I think there's more to the story than what we've been given...much more. Thanks for watching..
@@oldworldex What could that "much more" be? It would be appropriate for you to share your speculation with your viewers.
@@musiccitymanpresents That's what I'm doing with the channel. If you want answers, that's something I am seeking but don't claim to have. It's all speculation...and I know we have been lied to.
@@oldworldex OK that is somewhat more clarifying, I think you believe we the citizens of the US are being lied to about construction techniques? If so who is doing it, and why would they do it? Knowing that people only lie to gain some sort of advantage over others, what advantage could that possibly be?
If you’re interested in seeing something very very old, the Grand Canyon has rocks that’s literally a billion years old. There’s also land formations in Sedona Arizona where it used to be an ocean millions of years ago
Do your homework before posting, stop blabbing on w/o facts.
Homework?...will there be a test?
by "facts" do you mean the official narrative? :-D endless walls of text but literally never anything about how the horse drawn people would have been able to construct cities that we couldn't probably construct today with all our modern technology if we tried?

It's funny to me when you guys make these videos because here in Pittsburgh that Ivy will grow on your house in one summer until you guys apparently don't know s*** about construction because a crew of five guys can build a house in about I don't know 5 weeks I don't really care what material it's made out of it doesn't take like 20 years to build a home and all this stuff is only from the 1800s there's records of this stuff people knew how to write they wrote everything down it's not like every one of these things was built by the government it's a conspiracy to keeping it from you if there was something running on some kind of magical power there's still families in Pittsburgh that are related to the people that would have been there and they would say something about it
if you get a chance, could you please do a video on Altoona PA? I would be curious what you could find in your research
I've started a file. It'll be my next video.
