    At 15.05 of the video there is a build with name MVNICIPAL BVILDING using V instead of U, that usage was first recorded in 1386, stopped using in 17th century. Food for thought.

    Did some digging on the Kalurah Temple and found a “trolley script” saying that it was built in 1917, but saw some conflicting construction dates. It was a Shriners (Freemason appendant body) Temple, which was sold in 1957 to Faith Tabernacle who changed their name to First Assembly of God (City Church) at that time. It still stands at 255 Washington Street and is looking for a new owner if you happen to be seeking a building that is a block deep 😆
    Great video btw!

    I like your story of the "kids" coming to the rescue! Reminds me of the story on how Seattle recovered from their fire! The local brothels there weren't going to take that fire lying😅 down! They allegedly came to the rescue too, donating money to the city government!

    Thank you for casting the spotlight on my hometown of Binghamton! I actually grew up and lived in Endicott, just west of Binghamton and part of what is the Triple Cities of Broome County (Binghamton, Johnson City, and Endicott). The reason I bring that up is Endicott is where Thomas J. Watson " founded" IBM and Johnson City is where one of the largest shoe manufacturers of the world was "founded" at the turn of the 20th century, Endicott Johnson, or commonly called by its initials "EJ's" As you showed Binghamton has a huge "Old World" footprint that clearly contradicts the population narative. What's interesting about IBM and E.J.'s, for as huge of a company they both were, is they were able to ward off the unionization of their company. Thomas J. Watson was just some salesman who worked for NCR in Dayton Ohio who all of a sudden comes to the Binghamton area and founded the largest most advanced computer company in the world at the time. Anyway more topics we could talk about forever, and most likley similar to so many other small cities across the U.S. and Canada that just don't fit the narative. It's interesting how all these cities, 100's of them across the North America, just spring up out of no where with these incredible magical buildings and infastructur, immaculate and clean (except for the mud roads and ugly telephone poles) everyone looking good and dressed up. Today everything, all the buildings and infastructure, are falling apart, everyone dresses like a hobo, is sick and morbidly obese. Newly constructed homes, buildings, and roads fall apart after 5 years. So it makes sense that we are taxed into oblivion, having every ounce of blood sucked out of us to pay trillions of dollars into the education system and healthcare. Maybe we should go back to what was going on over 100 years ago because obviously it was working 1000X's better than today.

    So the building being constructed in the parade photo was the security mutual building, which I think may be one of those transition buildings. You can find serious construction photos of it (hard to fake ones) and in older photos you can see where a different building was in its place. I’m from the area and have looked into it but still confusing. I also requested this video and can’t thank you enough for it… great job!!

    I live in binghamton and also own a historic masonry restoration and repair contracting business, the answer is much more simplistic than you'll want to accept, but I am an expert in this particular field and also quite usually 100 percent against the lies of the elites... I love working on masonry from pre1890 or so.... than anything built beyond... with it getting worse and worse as we get newer....the level of skill has declined and no tech can make up for skilled trades people, facts. Add in the decline in people willing to labor for long hours and to do hard work ... and, more importantly, it's all about the use of lime as cement base of mortar, plaster, and concrete vs. The modern day shit portland cement based ones .... which suck so bad I avoid using it even in repairing modern work or new work. And, you don't need power tools for masonry construction, regardless of height!

      @oldworldex my friend, lime render, is easier to apply with a butter knife and dye any color, add gold leaf to it, or lime based renders of different recipe can be shaped to form amazing decorative forms by manual manipulation or a simple carved wood form.... and, with just an old brush, or linen and some natural soap be brought to the most magnificent shine and opulent beauty, the likes of which modern cement can't compare with under any circumstances or with the best technology.

    Just read The Annals of Binghamton and it gives cool descriptions of a world being passed from one culture to the next. Mudflood details in the book describe native Americans digging up copper stills that were mudflooded.
    The Phelps mansion (beginning of the video) has 10 foot tall doorways and windows throughout. The building is so ornate down to the hinges!! And when u take a tour, the guides tell you the people who built it were throwing their excrement out the window haphazardly. They don’t allow you to check out the basement or the attic.
    Kalurah temple is Shriner origin I think. Turned into a church. It’s still there. Really interesting lights out front and really interesting Egyptian art on side of building.

      It seems like, the conventional account would be that it was both ways round and things that are said in surviving novels and so on from that era suggest the same - some people propagandised sunlight and nature in general as bad (in America this was used to justify taking the natives' land, because it was said that since they'd left a lot of the land wild it was right that it should be taken by people who would 'make better use' of it) but also *bodies* were propagandised as bad and it was considered shocking to reveal more than your face and hands in public, maybe a legacy of the Puritans' idea that only God was good and the world in its natural state was evil.
