    Growing up on Milwaukee's east side in the 1960's, in an old Victorian house a few blocks west I walked and biked past these architectural marvels. I later lived in a former Uihlein victorian property on Hackett and Park pl. where U.W.M. students roomed. It still had the back stairs for the original cook and house staff used in the past as did our house on Lafayette and Bartlett which was restored.

      @@trapmichaelmoore1105 Lots of convenient 'fires' throughout history as well. It's 2023 and thoughts of Paradise, CA and now Lahaina, Maui and so many others come to mind. Lots of 'great' fires all over the world...to build back better I guess...for the Great' reset.

      No architectural blueprints or drawings on file anywhere of these architectural masterpieces.
      All built in just a couple years with donkeys and handtools.
      Vanilla Skies.

    I was born in Milwaukee, but only lived there until I was 2 years old. I never knew Milwaukee had such glorious homes and buildings. It is an abomination that these beautiful homes were not kept up, valued and were allowed to go into disrepair due to neglect or greed. The buildings that were put up after these glorious homes were tragically destroyed were and still are ugly, cold and an abomination to the city's more beautiful past. All of those 'modern' reset replacement apartments and buildings look like they belong in the old East Germany occupied and ruled by the communists. I know, because I was there in the 1970's visiting relatives. The new buildings may be called progress by some, but it sure seem to me that modern styles are hidious and only lead to a decay of society. Very sad to see such beauty being torn down to be replaced with ugly.

    What a shame that so many had been torn down.

    Nice video and information, but the "uhms" were a bit distracting.
