Here in Puerto Rico, the oldest surviving building is Casa Blanca (White House, because that isn’t modernly confusing) which was built in 1521 as the residence of the first Spanish governor, Juan Ponce de Leon. His family and descendents lived in the residence until the mid 1700’s when they sold it to the military. It became an officers quarters until 1898. After the Spanish-American War in that same year, the US Army used it as residence as well for high ranking officers until the 1950’s when it was transferred to the state government which converted the building into a museum dedicated to Ponce de Leon.
@@NickJohnson VIRGINIA the jamestown church isn't the oldest, the foundation is 1647, the wood structure was replaced the a brick structure in 1739 jamestown est 1609 the oldest intake structure is BROAD BAY MANOR 1636 and has been in private residence since actually IT IS purportedly the OLDEST extant European-built house in the SOUTH EASTERN United States.
I hate to be like this but there are several buildings older in Az than the San Xavier del Bac Mission in Tucson. My favorite is Montezuma’s castle. It was built by the Hopi peoples back in 1300s. It was actually a village built into a side of a cliff and it is pretty cool. Then there is one even older than that. It is a hut in Canyon Del Chilly that was built around 350 AD. I have never been there. I would like to ride up to the four corners area to see it. Also, there are a couple more at Agua Fria National Park. The state of Az claims them to be oldest in the state but they are more of remnants than buildings. They were built back in 250 AD.
@Eddie R Not from Maine but from MA. I descend from an old Maine family, The Pauls. Nick's video is full of mistakes and he won't admit it. I won't be watching any of his videos in the future.
@@ritaparisiwaterfallproduct8104 I recently started watching his videos and someone who grew up in the South and Midwest I see alot of incorrect info he's gives.
William Whipple is actually a distant relative of mine. I had no idea his former house still existed until this video, so it was extra interesting. He was a General in the American Revolution who signed the Declaration of Independence.
Great video, Mr. Johnson! I am from Wisconsin and been to the "Tank Cottage" located at Heritage Hill in Green Bay. Green Bay itself is quite old for the USA, having been first established in 1634. I hope you do more history videos....lots to learn!
I love history the craftsmanship of all old things especially buildings my dad was a brick layer/mason, my grandfather refinished wood and I collect and refinish old things
In Japan they have beautiful temples and castles made entirely of wood that go back to the 1600s. But they understand wood doesn't last forever. When a piece of wood wears out, they replace it with an exact duplicate. So every part of these buildings have been replaced maybe several times, but the buildings themselves are still considered 400 years old. I suspect many of the buildings you showed are similar. Great job, though! I love your videos.
Do not show this in history class. Every time he mentions something about Ohio, he does it in such a condescending manner. My family settled in Ohio in the mid 1600s. Not only did they have to fight Indians but hey fought in the revolutionary war and he civil war and every war after that. You know nothing of Ohio, so don't be too eager with the put downs. Ohio's oldest building got about 5 seconds of air time with most of it derogatory. Thanks for nothing.

Taos Pueblo is older than quite a few old European buildings. If that foundation date of 1000 AD is right, they didn't even start construction on Notre Dame Cathedral for another 163 years.
Excellent! Informative and fun, I learned a lot and enjoyed the humor & music too. Well-researched. Just happened upon this today in 2023. I'm in CA and have been to Mission San Juan Capistrano, it's beautiful and remains structurally sound. Thanks for your videos :)
if i remember correctly. Places like Brooke Place Manor has two-room build off its roof. There are called Widow's Watches, many houses from the NE and Mid Atlantic have them for families of Fishermen, Pirates, Nautical Related Jobs. Many Wives and Families would use the Watches as the overlooked a body of water as they watched their loved ones. Some even had a Widow's walk, an actual platform build on a roof to pace and look over the waters.
Nope, nope, nope. Here in Virginia, there’s PLENTY of stuff older than 1739. Toddsbury is a private home here in Gloucester County and it was built in 1650, so I know there’s a lot still standing here that’s older than 1739.
Yah this one was fun!!! Theres a cool video on youtube called Tallest building in each state with techno music. This is OUR history guys! and theres still Bison and buffalo burgers galore~!!!
Drinking coffee at 4pm (don't judge), after what is already a stressful day, watching some Nick Johnson. Especially love the Colorado and New Mexico ones...It's clear how buildings in Latin America were influenced by the look of the pueblos. also neat to see what civilization looked like before Europe came in.
Hello Mr. Johnson, this is a good new tour from your traveling series. It's great to see your touring topics have expanded for us to learn about American architectural past. 👍 and 🙏 thank you.
Correction: The oldest house in Maine is the McIntire Garrison House, built in 1707. The Williams Whipple House owners claim that it was built in 1660, although 99% of the house was built afterwards.
As a german or european in general, it's interesting to see what is considered old in America. Here in my hometown, which is around 1400 years old, we found parts of an old celtic castle from the year 1000 b.c. under the "new" castle, built around 700, the oldest parts which are still left are from the year 1100. The university was found 1402, our famous bridge was rebuilt 1476 after the old bridge from 1120 was destroyed in a flood. One of the buildings considered younger here is the "Residenz" from the year 1700, the oldest residential building in my town was built in 1521, the oldest residential building in germany was built around 1200 and there are still people living in it. Hell, I lived in a small village nearby and even they had a small castle that was built in the 11th century and it's not even looking spectacular, I've never seen tourists there because old buildings are pretty common here. The oldest building here in germany was from the romans, the "amphitheater" in Trier, built around 200 a.d. - and you can still visit it. The oldest human things I've ever seen live were tools from the early stone age, about 500.000-600.000 years old, at the place where they were found in a museum built on top of the location where they found it. So fellow americans, if you ever tell someone from europe, that this or that building is old and it's from e.g. 1798 - don't be angry if we are not impressed.
What a wonderful video thank you! I can confirm that the Flintstones buildings are still standing. Mappy was just telling me he's looking to move his family into one of them, explaining that "you wouldn't believe how low the rents are."
Great video Nick. Do more like this. As a side note, I collect old and rare books. I have one book in particular that was published in 1508. Every once in a while I take it out and marvel at the fact it was make just a few years after Columbus sailed for the New World, 100 years before Jamestown was settled, and a year before Henry VIII took the English throne. It's a theological work by an Italian priest. It's in Latin, so it's not much fun to read.
This is awesome Nick and you need to do ones of largest building, tallest mountain, most visited place and much much more of each State! Thank you for putting on videos through out the year!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Loved this video! Hopefully on 2021 you'll still keep educating people on what the states have going or not going on🎅🎍👍
My house was built about 150 years ago in 1873, and And was built by my great great great grandpa, it’s pretty well made and has lasted this long, I’m sure it could last another 300.
My late father in law worked at the oldest house in the USA. He was actually a park ranger. The local Pueblo were called Anasazi, if I am remembered correctly.
@@NickJohnson Haha you're the best, have you ever considered doing a video on all the prehistoric mounds and earthworks across the US? Many have been demolished but some super cool places remain.
I live in a smallish town in the North of the UK, oldest building is a Presbyterian church from the 1600s, most of the houses in the town are Victorian with some older Georgian grand places, outskirts will mostly be from the 40,s and 50s, it's fairly typical of the UK
Hi Nick. I grew up in Eastern Ct and my brother-in-law’s family lived in a house just up the road that was .built in 1720. The foundation was stacked stones and in the basement you could see the hand hewn beams and pegs.
@@grandmajane2593 it is in Hebron on Hope Valley Rd. They have it blocked on Google Earth. I lived near there in the late 60s. Coming down Rt85 when you turn down Hope Valley Rd you will come to a narrow ridge and it right past it on the right with nice stone walls. Where I live in Alaska old is the 1930s.
@@grandmajane2593 This is a House about a mile off 85 on one of those paved cow paths as we used to call them.192 Hope Valley rd. We love it here. I moved here in 79 after military and a few years at Pratt. Best decision I ever made. 2nd year here made over three times what I made there.
@@grandmajane2593 it is, but we long for warmer winters. probably in a few years we will be snowbirds. We want a place down there with a motorhome and vehicle to leave down there. We have a lot going on here with a small rental and remote cabin so more things to look after can be a burden as we aren’t getting any younger.
@@grandmajane2593 it was paved where we lived there. We lived at Amston Lake before we lived in Hope Valley. We lived right on the lake on the Lebanon side. Many of the side roads around the lake were still gravel, but the main road was paved. Are you talking about Harry’s in Colchester? I was going back there 5-6 times a year for 3 years 10 years ago. It’s a long flight. It seems I have spent a year of my life in airports because most of my jobs involved flying somewhere.
@@grandmajane2593 it just warmed up to the high teens here and I took the dog out for a walk.i don’t mind the cold, it is the wind with it I hate. I have worked in -80 windchills but am not against going snow shoeing in -40 where I use to work. We snowmobile out to our remote cabin also.its in the middle of the woods with wood heat and solar. We can stay there for a long time.
Of course the picture you showed of (Kansas's) Douglas MacArthur's mother was actually Nell Arthur, wife of Chester Arthur, and her only son was Chester Arthur, Jr., who never had a job his whole life. But Nell Arthur sure was pretty and shame she died young before becoming a first lady .... but everyone knows this already. ;) Another 10 out of 10 on this one, Nick - worth a rewatch (like all your vids)
My house is already quite old, it has been passed down in my hubby's family since 1684, the interesting thing is that in an old bible there is notes that three brothers emigrated to the US in 1856, I would love to know were they ended up since they are relatives of my husband. I'm living in Sweden.
The Kodiak History museum was built in 1808 not 1810. But anyway. There are older buildings in Alaska, these buildings were built in other places but moved to Alaska at a later date, one example I can think of is a house built around 1680 and transported to Anchorage in the 1980s.

By the same token, I didn't see a single "old missionary", either.

The “big house” in Florence Arizona is believed to be 800-1000 years old and is still standing. It’s also the oldest national monument in the US
No that's devils tower

You should do a video on the oldest city in every state, that would probably be an interesting video
@Fitz the dragon in Michigan the oldest city is Sault Ste Marie which was founded in the 1600s
Ok!

I live 5 minutes away from the oldest building in WV. How cool! Doesn't sound like something I can tour, but its exciting to know its close!
I'd have thought some of the Anasazi buildings in Arizona would have pre-dated the Spanish mission Church.
Same with Utah. Also Chaco Canyon is older than Taos Pueblo.
Montezuma's castle dates back to 1100 AD
travel3, Paul J : You two people have confirmed my suspicions. These buildings are old even by European standards.
Arizona- Casa Grande national monument?

You are wrong about the oldest house in Utah. The oldest house in Utah is in Hovenweep National monument. It was built around 1200 AD.

My house is already quite old, it has been passed down in my hubby's family since 1684, the interesting thing is that in an old bible there is notes that three brothers emigrated to the US in 1856, I would love to know were they ended up since they are relatives of my husband. I'm living in Sweden.
Loved the video. Malalla, Oregon is actually spelled Molalla, Oregon though.
Ahhhhh
Merry Christmas Nick, but indianas is wrong the fort in Fort Wayne was built in1793 or even earlier.
Have a good holiday week!! Be safe and well Caleb!!
My husband is a native from the Pechanga tribe in California and the natives were used as slave labor for the missions.
That’s really sad
The Kodiak History museum was built in 1808 not 1810. But anyway. There are older buildings in Alaska, these buildings were built in other places but moved to Alaska at a later date, one example I can think of is a house built around 1680 and transported to Anchorage in the 1980s.
Lafitte's is a fun place. Theres a piano bar in the back and a haunted fire place. If you go to the French Quarter you should stop by.
