Have a great night guys, remember to hit up our Instagram and Twitter to keep up to date and in touch w us. 👊🏻👊🏻
P.S. mansion is spelled wrong. I know, I was tired m, sorry
Hello from VT.
Hello from New York - upstate New York
#KREEPERS
We still love ya 😀
Wow another great video Robb,the misspelling is ok :-)
the house belonged to Chatman Root,they owned Root glass company and produced the coke bottles, Chatman was involved in sprint car and indy car racing and had several well known drivers,in the 1960s he moved to atlanta Georgia and managed his Coca-Cola enterprise from there,he passed away in the 1980s.

Owned a glass co. That explains all the panes used on this property in the greenhouse, over the pool, etc. Interesting.
Why do people have to be so destructive? Why can't they just see the beauty in these places and leave the way they found it? Angers me.
Totally agree, Crystal....
Ya you can definitely see the beauty in this place, And as always people just destroy without hesitation.
Karma though
Because they’re losers.
Me2 i agree
Barb Molitor Because there assholes
Some of those architectural design elements are beautiful... great video
Abandoned or not, my senses never quite cope with seeing the graffiti and destruction people cause in these places. It just shows a total lack of respect (IMO) these places should be enjoyed not destroyed..
I totally agree with you, Nicole...no respect for anything!...
Ikr, it's so beautiful, and left alone, it would have overgrown with vines but would still be gorgeous. I never understood why some people just want to destroy. . .
But at least what's left of this place is preserved on video now forever. I love explorative videos like this!
Hopefully thay can save it for the future
Hey great explore!! Your videos helped me get through my breast cancer surgery and radiation. You took me places and kept me entertained, for all that I thank you.
Prayers for your recovery and future health.
Nice explore would like have seen what it looked like before the growth and vandals got to it
I Agree
That mansion has so much charm! That beautiful tile work, the fireplace hearth, the little plaques embedded in the brick around the pool! The graffiti and vandalism just hurts my heart and my eyes! 😡. Vandals suck!
I have been looking for images of this place in its before days, unable to find but a few of the outside. It hurts me to see such amazing places left to decay, and be vandalized. It would cost millions to restore this one now.
No reason for all the damage. Such a lovely place deserves respect .
Thank you for not bouncing around with the camera. I’m one of those that get kind of sick and dizzy watching those types of videos (can’t go to 3-D movies either) but I like watching videos of the old houses and imagining what the lives of the people that owned them might’ve been like.
It looks like, even though the place was put up in the twenties, something didn’t go well for that family by the early 80’s.
Cam Rubi that family actually fell into more money and moved on up its too bad they didnt at least give somebody a free room to take care of this place though.it sucks vandals totally trashed this place
GREAT video ! Love your editing. It must have been a beautiful home at one time.
That place has a peaceful magical vibe to it... Would love to see it restored... Thanks for bringing this 🙏🏼
I'm from this town and grew up past this place. It's set far back from the road but you can see the green house roof.
It's located very near swamps and a beautiful lake in Louisiana.
As a child, my imagination ran wild when we drove by the house.
I would love to see this mansion in its original setting..
This place is dope brotha!!
Would have loved to have seen it in its Glory.
thanks for taking us along my friend, stay safe out there
Greetings from Kazakhstan!!! We love your channel and we love USandA!!!!
Thanks for all you supporting Robs Channel! And I usually don't do this,but check out Broken Window Theory,they are very good( two students form Germany),and uploads are filled with abandonded mansions and history!!!
Very nice
Sometimes my sister, she show her vazhin to my brother bilo and say " you will never get this lalalala" he behind cage. One day he break cage and "get this" high five
Raymond Loewy designed the Coke bottle. His home is still occupied. He was a famous and remarkable industrial designer of many recognizable things, including trains, cars, airplanes, cigarette boxes, and on and on. LOVE your work! I find your videos frequently sad and depressing, but you are such an excellent host that I watch them constantly. Thank you for what you do!
I would have loved 2 seen be4 & after pics.....I HATE ALL THE VANDALISM!! THANKS 4 SHARING 😊
@Bob McCabe Right!!!🤦♀️
Absolutely tragic that people would destroy these abandoned mansions and homes with graffiti and other malicious intents. 😢
Mannn, i can only imagine what it looked like before it got wrecked! That’s a really beautiful place 👍🏼😍
RnK is just cranking them vlogs out 👊 3 in row, I love it. This one was pretty cool. Great editing. I could only imagine how beautiful this place was back then, but there is a sense of sadness throughout.
My daughter painted her bedroom that color purple with white ceiling and white door. It looked really nice. She was 16 and had to paint it herself. Neve understood why the relatives never take over these mansions when the parents die. It would be so beautiful fixed up! Great find for sure Rob . Thanks.
Omg that pool & patio area is the best yet! Love it and thanks for another awesome explore Rob!
It REALLY does have some inque features! ....the walkway balcony ....cool basement with columns and arches ....wonderful tile work. Neat greenhouses and garden building!
Great explore! TY!
Raymond Lowey, I believe, is often credited with the design of the Coke bottle, but I think I read that he actually refined a previous design that remains to this day. An industrial designer, he was quite the renaissance man, and this house would have fit him to a tee; old photos show expensive suits and silk ascots! Also designed a famous airline logo, can't remember which one, as well as the gorgeous 1963 Studebaker Avanti, a car which was so far ahead of it's time for the period. A lot of retrofitting (dropped ceiling in the kitchen, new and cheap cabinets in that small kitchen that covered the arched alcove built into the old wall), such a shame that people back then couldn't recognize artistry when they saw it. Looked like a foundation by the outdoor kitchen area, wonder what was there? I love your stuff! Look forward to each episode. I really wonder which Coca-Cola man it actually was...
No, actually the bottle designs is one of the few things Lowey didn’t design for Coca Cola. The bottle was designed by the Root Glass Company. This mansion is called Rocky Edge and is in Indiana. This is the owner of Root Glass Company’s home. Chapman Root.
Thanks, Debra Sue, you're much more knowledgeable than I am obviously, so the Lowey Coke bottle thing is totally untrue, as I understood that he refined an existing design and sort of smoothed it out a bit? Seems the curves of the early 1900's bottle were much sharper and more exaggerated. Neither here nor there. Wonder why that beautiful house was ever left to rot...
Paul, I’m certainly not as knowledgeable as you on Raymond Lowey. The only reason I know about this home is because one of my sons did a paper on famous peoples homes in Indiana and this was one of them. I had no knowledge of Raymond Lowey until I read your comment. Thanks so much for sharing!! I looked into him a little bit after I read your comment. He was definitely an interesting and creative man! And you’re correct, in that he refined the original design. So essentially, both men designed the Coca Cola bottles 👍🏼😊
@@hotrodpop1973 Yes, just a few days ago, another UA-cam video attributed the invention of the Coke bottle to Raymond Loewy, but I just Googled it, and though several sites still attribute the bottle design to him, the site, "Coke and the Legacy of Raymond Loewy," says not. He _was_ part of the team that designed the larger bottles (the original contour bottle held only six or seven ounces). The site is fascinating: you see his design for everything from Coke coolers and dispensers to the special Coca-Cola delivery trucks. Debra Sue is right. Thanks Debra Sue!
@@debrasue5986, thanks for reassuring me that I hadn't been spreading false information for all these years! Lowey was indeed a fascinating individual. Any idea why the home has fallen into such disrepair? Definitely a shame, it must have been stunning in its heyday!
I was curious if u could find pictures of the mansion before it's decay .?????thank u for sharing this awesome video .awesome mansion.🎩
Oh yes, another great video. I love how you pick sites that have a historical background and then you explain it further. This style is called "Arts and Crafts" (1880-early 1920s, starting in Great Britain, spreading to Japan in the 1920's) and a fine example despite the place being trashed (which is a shame). Another awesome job! Would love to rehab and save that place it must have been gorgeous in its hayday. Keep them coming.!!!!xox
Thanks for sharing. Also thanks for not vandulizing. Amazing find.
those beautiful scenic tiles in the green house trashed with paint I wonder if they can be cleaned
Do you ever get nervous about squatters in these places? Do you take anything to protect yourself? I went to Joyland Amusement Park Kansas-and it’s hard to not be afraid of finding someone at every turn. (I remember when you came here and explored it!) Makes it hard to enjoy the beauty of the abandoned when you feel nervous about safety. 😬😩
Lacey Shields I grew up going to Joyland. Even when it was up and running it was uber creepy.
Neil Harris me too! There’s something super cool about it though. Like a creepy cool lol
You went!!! Awesome!!! I mentioned this explore to you both, during one of your lives! I’m glad you made it!!!!
You went.
You trespassed.
Karen MacDonald- you went.
A great home for a successful family. Sad that it was left to decay... a good history lesson. Thank you.
It's sad. I cant even afford a home and these people can just throw it away like it's nothing
That pool would have been so beautiful in its time the outside fire place was a find also. Thanks for sharing.
the "outside fireplace" was a wood heated sauna at the time
Wow that place was trashed ! THAT GREEN HOUSE WAS SO 😎 that outdoor bbq area was AWESOME !!!! THAT FREAKING PPPOOOLLL ONE OF A KIND !!! Home run all the way great job and all this on week night I love it ! That made my week great job. Excellent work !
Love this exploration! Awesome job!
What a great find! That would have been such a beautiful place to live! Thanks for sharing!
How cool, fascinating to see the crib of the dude who thought up such a iconic bottle design that's recognised all over the world. Somewhat amazing that it has been left to decay and isn't some form of national treasure. 😏💯👍🏼
This place is in Allendale, Indiana and is called "Rocky Edge". A weekend retreat of Chapman Root whose company designed the original curved body coke bottle. Interesting that HE gets the credit (as usually happens) when in reality he didn't have much to do with the design. The man who actually sketched the bottle design and produced the first prototypes was named Earl Dean, a staff machinist at Root Glass. Wonder if he made enough money to build a mansion? Somehow I doubt it. Still, this place is way cool. According to records the Root family sold thi property in the 1960s. From what I can find it may have been sitting empty for only about a decade. Last year the owners were going through a divorce and a judge ordered it sold.
Appreciate the back story
Thoroughly enjoyed, as always! It would have been a treat to see it in it's heyday! Thanks for an awesome explore Robb!
Using my bfs account since I lost my phone. Love your videos. Its to bad it jist laid abandoned like this it has some really nice interior. Really cool find though. Keep up the great work. Loved the greenhouse one of my favorite parts
that was a beautiful place! thanx for sharing ♥
Some 420 and RNK 💯
👊🏻💨
I like how you explain things. You show the beauty behind the graffiti. Thank you
Good filming
of this video
thanks for sharing all
of us viewers really
love them.
The aqua bathroom fixture's!!!My favorite. Love your videos 💗💗
It's sad to see a beautiful home like this go to ruin. I wonder why it was just abandoned?
Awesome explore loved the 1920s vibe and the history of the maker of the coke bottle. Love and peace
It's nice that you the UA-camrs appreciate architecture etc.... what a shame everybody doesn't. I'd like to slug the vandals, I really would.
A HUGE Thank you for sharing this Great explore of an iconic piece of history; The Rocky Edge Estate established in 1920 by Chapman J. Root, famous inventor of the green Coca-Cola bottle. This is an authentic piece of American history that I hope is preserved. The first Coca-Cola bottle, a world-famous trademark was created in 1915 at Root Glass Company, by Chapman J. Root, T. Clyde Edwards, Earl R. Dean, and Alexander Samuelson. Bottle design selected in a national competition.
RNK what a GREAT explore even thru the destruction it's beauty still can been seen.☮✌
Really enjoyed this explore.. good stuff Rob 👌🏻😊
So rad . ..I love coca cola too so even cooler..great work broski
It was very hard to watch this video because of all the vandalism of such a nice place.
If I had a Salvage Job, I will be there saving doors, window frames & whatever's there. Love the style of the interior, so cool! That outdoor feature is so cool, I can imagine having a bbq with friends, family there, swim in the pool, what a great find! So sad to see that mansion destroyed by vandals! Anyway, great video Robb.....Take care....
Cool history...Could be a nice unique home
I would LOVE to see this brought back to life.....landscaped beautifully and just livable. This is a hellish mess. HGTV needs to make this one of their 2020 projects.
What an excellent find, especially the secret outdoor chimney.....so cool. Thank you.
Such a cool old mansion.. gotta love Coca-Cola.. and I love the history behind everything.. you always explore the coolest places.. stay awesome rob😎
Love it & cool I counted him saying those words 68 times in this video!
Omg! The green house and pool! Wow!
I know where this is!! I live really close to where it is and I never knew it existed. There's a big mural dedicated to the guy because the city is really into the whole "the Coca Cola bottle design was invented here!" and all that. Really cool. Neat that you got to explore this.
Frank Beach I live right down the road from here!
I grew up on Area#4. ❣️
Awesome explore!
Who were the idiots that gave this video a thumbs down??
I loved it!
My favorite was the green house and that beautiful pool WOW just WOW!
Thank you for sharing it with us 🤗
Yoly Calderon haters!
love all the windows. that elevator is really neat. the tiles in the green house were really nice to see. Oh my goodness that outdoor fireplace is fantastic. May have been their summer kitchen. This place is really neat and I enjoyed you bringing me along to see it. loved it. loG (lean on GOD)
that was for sure the most best looking abandoned house yet
That's so so strange the coca cola mansion and that's rare that is there to see because I am a big coca cola fanatic here
Loved the greenhouse and pool. Thanks RnK!
Awesome explore lot of great features to this Mansion love the pool very cool it does look like something from a fairy tail Must have been quite the place. I could see myself in that pool in the afternoon. Great history this should be preserved.
Hi owen I love old places like this too
That pool area is amazing imagine what it was in its hay day Thanks for sharing
Very very dope!! Great flick as Always!!!! Does that hat say KING? Lol..that's my last name...very cool🤘
Midwest Flesh UrbEx yup 🤘🏻
@@RnKAllDay Always good to see u guys out still killin it!!!🤘😎🤘
DOPE!!!
It amazes me how long these places have been left to rot such a shame because the house has a bit of history to it.
What a unique property. Would have loved to have seen it in its hey day.
The pool area and the outdoor kitchen/entertainment area are the bomb.
Wraparound balcony is really cool too. I didn't know bottle design could pay so well.
Very cool, I liked what I saw.
Back in the 1920''s, and 1930's, I probably would have had that small bedroom.
Thanks for the tour.
If I was a billionaire I so would buy that house strip down to it's skeleton and rebuild it. I would definitely modernize it a little but not much. Very cool find.
Seriously, there should be like a certain level of creativity required for vandals.
Glad U brought this to our attention. Been reading a lot about it now... it's been thru so many changes. Worst part - it's an historic site, but doesn't have to be refurbished!??? Really sad
"And that man - he made the Coca Cola Bottle, and probably did some things afterwards, and that's how he got this mansion - which he then abandoned."
Glad to know that you did some serious research before giving this presentation and we aren't just watching some idiot with no knowledge of history or architecture guiding us through this tour.
Thanks man! I did extensive research on this but decided to really tell none of it bc i in all actuality dgaf
@@RnKAllDay LOL...U GO BOI!!
Freemason home with symbols around! Bedroom up stairs that went outside, down to small room is probably were kept trafficking children!
I try to picture this mansion how it looked back during the 1920 era. The elevator, outside walkaround balcony, the outdoor cooking grill and the pool had me sold. You can tell this was once a very nice looking pretty cool awesome mansion back then. I love the design and architectural style and layout.
What a great place!
I love it. I just wish people would quit trashing places like that. At least explore it and let it have natural decay. Good video as usual!! Hope you and your wife, and pup are doing good. Life is slowly turning around. I wish you both well. Take care and keep exploring!!✌💖🙏
Thats a Pressure washer at the end a real nice one!
Been busy traveling for work
Dam I got a backlog
Jorts!
Amazing as always
The artwork on the fireplace area of the deer is amazing and in excellent shape! Someone really should save that! That painting is thee most valuable thing I noticed. Period!
That place has a Magic Look with the trees around the pool
Beautiful old home with some incredible features, but I didn't like the kitchen remodel. The cabinets are identical to my parents' home that was remodeled in the late '60's. I love the old refrigerator at 9:50! The outdoor kitchen was very cool! The swimming pool area was amazing! The whole house was amazing! I would really love to see photos of it when it was occupied. It's very sad that it's just sitting decaying and being destroyed. Considering it's historic significance, I wish it could be turned into a museum or some other type of attraction.
Excellent find and as always excellent video presentation!
Excellently done video! Filming was done so that we can see things well! I appreciate you not rushing, as well as speaking clearly so you are understandable!! Good job!!
if it's really form the 1920s it´s almos 100 years old!! the kitchen and most of the rooms seem to have more recent furniture (70s I think) but the pool and the green house are 1920s all the way!!! great video.
I don't get leaving this place to rot! It's an amazing place!
Wow, what an fantastic find!!! The Greenhouses and the pool are my favorite parts. Absolutely incredible.
Great explore! This place was so interesting as you went along I forgot to be distracted by the graffiti! I love how the brick staircase went right down into the pool! Very different and elegant!
Cool explore. This place definitely had some odd architecture and decor. I've never seen ballisters against the ceiling like that! Safe travels cant wait to see the next!
What a really cool place, if only someone with the funds would step up and restore this beautiful estate. Great work, really enjoy all your videos!
Wow I’m early for this one too must be getting better about timing 🤣cool too see this Rob! As a Coke drinker it’s good to know where the $ goes after buying the product that is..Ha! Say hi to Kristy!
That was an absolutely beautiful home at on time. It should have Ben turned in to a museum, not left to rot. Great video, thank you for documenting. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Hi guys you both have been very busy you need time for yourselves you know ! Love the swimming pool it would have looked amazing when it was first constructed , and their barbecue, and they could , to sit eat drink and chat or party what a clam life style long gone as they are !
They should turn it in to a museum to show how much Coke is not only a product it's history 💯💯💯
Isn’t it sad that somebody worked hard and purchased the house they were proud of and now it’s in shambles. Gone as a person and you might as well say gone is the house. That’s life so much for leaving a mark on this world!
That's a great place really enjoyed it thanks
Great explore, would love to have seen it in a functional form, bet it was incredible! Thanks for the video, one of your best ones.
AN AWESOME HOUSE. IF NOT FOR THE VANDALISM, THAT HOUSE WOULD BE REALLY GREAT. I LOVE THE WOODWORK.
Beautiful place. I was a carpenter half my life. I really love raised panels and wood work that's why I love these old places. That pool and green house combined with the hidden hang out omg loved it. Thanks again really cool place man 💜✌your friend in Oklahoma
Wow the fireplace and timber work was amazing, thank you for sharing this with us. Love it
Very "Villa" like house - Roman, Greek, Pompeii elements - Love it!
It’s a Spanish revival style home
