Thank you for this beautiful tour of Atlantic City's old world buildings. I was in Atlantic City in the seventies when I was four with my parents, but I remember absolutely zero about it. I went again when I was eighteen with my grandmother for the day -- we lived in Baltimore, so it was about two hours each way. We went on a bus for senior citizens who wanted to go to the casinos. I couldn't go in, so I got thrown out of the casino itself. She didn't care. She just played a few slots and was done. I think we went and got something to eat, then took a walk by the beach. I was happy to spend some time with my grandmother. I wish I remembered something. I do remember seeing a restaurant or a casino built on a pier. Maybe that's what happened to the one that you showed us. She was such an amazing woman. Have a beautiful day. 🌻🦋 Much love and blessings. 🤗❤️💖💜🙏
Your presentation of what used to be in Atlantic City was astounding. Perfect example of maybe what "they" have planned for all cities eventually. Not a coincidence that almost all TV Late Shows and News Shows always show a skyline of boring boxy skyscrapers, and not Beautiful Old World Architecture that in many cases is still here to see.
Short Line was a bus company. The rest was true. It was a resort community. In order to get there from Philadelphia before the RR’s were built, you had to take a stage coach in three middle of the night in order to get there by the following afternoon.
this is hardly a narrative. It's just a bunch of postcards with someone adding some lines like, I don't know, I'm not sure. Wow there were a lot of hotels down here. Stuff like that.
I live in Northern NJ and go to Atlantic city almost once a year. The hotels are modern with interior design and comfort in mind. It's all geared towards gambling and slot machines. A lot is abandoned and out of business. The boardwalk is full of homeless and panhandlers. The people are so desperate that they are happy to take your leftovers from dinner and you can see them feeding their children under the pavilions and some live under the boardwalk. The stores are mostly souvenir types and in inland stores are brand name outlet stores that are virtually devoid of customers selling ugly clothes that no one wanted. Often the hotels will feature some good has-been bands and other entertaining shows. My husband likes magic shows and you can find that here usually. The hard rock cafe hotel is pretty cool because they have a lot of rock star's costumes beautifully displayed. For some reason they have all of the windows to their inner courtyard blocked so you can't see their giant guitar sculpture. I feel like everything "victorian" was gone before I moved here in 1989. There are still a lot of victorian structures in Cape May NJ, but it's mostly wooden not stone. I like to go to Atlantic City because the beach isn't too crowded and you can enjoy a very comfortable hotel room. I don't like the casinos, and find them really creepy and depressing. There's an awful vibe about the whole place, but the beach is nice. I used to try to get my husband to get us a room in the poconos instead, but the deals for the rooms in Atlantic City are really good, and there's always a decent restaurant to eat at. I remember it being nicer 30 years ago.
My parents met in Atlantic City on the Labor Day Weekend, 1950, along the Boardwalk near the Convention Hall. My mom used to say that she and her friends would stay at the Hotel Wilkes-Barre. I don't remember where my dad used to stay. My parents got married in October 1952. Early in their marriage, they would vacation in AC and used to stay at a full-service beachfront hotel with a large Jewish clientele in the summer of 1957 & '58. A couple of years later, they found John's Motel, on the recommendation of my dad's co-workers. Later, Atlantic City got too rough for them and we went to another shore point, Stone Harbor. My friends and I would visit the Atlantic City casinos many years later.
One my favorite Canucks 💪I've been there a few times over the years and it has changed SO much , even in the last 25 years alone . It gives you that old world energy when you're there by the way . Love the work as always , bud . God bless you and your future explorers .
Excellent video. It's a tragedy that a lot of those beatiful buildings were destroyed for the casinos. And the redevelopment projects in the 70s and 80s took the ones that survived the first waves of destruction. A lot of those lots remain vacant today! However, it makes you cherish the old ones that still remain. Like the Knife and Fork, built before the 1920s, still going strong. And the Irish Pub, originally the Elwood, built in 1903. That building still stands in it's orginal condition. It is also still in operation as a small hotel and popular bar and restaurant. The architecture of the pub was used as the inspiration of the hotel game pieces for Monopoly. Some people refer to building as the Monopoly hotel, because it sits on St James Place. Some of the old world buildings ypu have shown are still with us today. Some are unrecognizable.
Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort to show us what humankind was once capable of. Its like a time travel channel and I'm a nostalgic person therefore your presentations resonate with me.
Jersey girl originally, my Mom was from Philly. Atlantic City was the summer playground for many people when she was a child, that would have been the 1940's. She, my grandparents, her cousins all used to talk about how much fun they had during the summer in Atlantic City. It was known for its salt water taffy. Sounded like it still had some of the Old World vibe left. By the time I was a kid, AC was in decline. Geez, Chris, until I watched your video today I had no idea how severe that decline was meaning from such utter....utter magnificence. By the time I visited it, it was the era of organized crime and casinos and the vibe was SO low and the old buildings that were left were neglected and felt like they were full of ghosts. I am glad I didn't know what was there before because I would have found it heartbreaking. However, I did see The Ramones there around 1979-ish? I don't remember what building it was it might have been the Music Hall but it was a pretty humble, one floor sort of building. No fancy acoustics and The Ramones loved to blast. My ears were ringing for days!
I love how they just put a cross on the roof and -- magically! -- it's transformed into a church! Same with putting a sign on anything, and it's automatically a post office, a school, a hotel, a bank, a theater, a city hall, a hospital... In a thousand years, archeologists will be amazed at how many temples and tombs we had. Maybe a few palaces thrown in?
I remember visiting Atlantic City back in the 60s and 70s. It was dilapidated but the architecture was so beautiful.🎉 it was very sad to see what they replaced it with.
Just came across your wonderful video on the history of AC. I was born and raised there and still live nearby. I spent my childhood on the Boardwalk in the 1970s and grew-up in a very ornate and grand home typical of the area back then. I am familiar with many of the structures and histories you talked about. If you like, I could spend the time and comment on each of the buildings you reviewed (and some you didn't) but it would take pages. However, since you are obviously serious about this kind of lost history, I'd be happy to do so... Just ask. Thank you for making sure that the past doesn't become just a memory.
Where we live in the North of Scotland, used to have a local railway line to the main line. You can still see where the old line was and the platform and station are still there. I have a picture of a steam train coming straight through our garden back in the day. It was closed down in 1960 In the museum there are two pictures of when they "cut the first sod". One of which there are some people looking forward to the sod cutting whilst leaning with their backs against a fence. The railway is already built and behind this fence. The sods are too far up the hill It is a completely staged photo from "1900", everyone in the picture look immaculately dressed Another picture shows the open day of the railway said to be 1902. There is a stage picture of the well to do and "locals" on the platform, in front of the station building only showing the roof. Clearly they don't want to show the condition of the building. What they do show is below the platform is very old railway sleepers and track, even the wall of the platform is very old looking, made of sleepers. All the pictures could have been taken on the same day. freemason clown puppet andrew carneigie features as well, which confirms the staging of the event They do not have one picture of the railway being laid ...... As with any old world railways or buildings the narrative never adds up Everything has been a lie
I remember seeing the Marlborough Blenheim being demolished. I wasnt sad. I thought it was tacky and never liked it. My brother and father were sad. I think this was right after the first casino, the boringly-named Resorts International opened. There was excitement in the air. But the old fashioned charm of Atlantic City was being removed.
We once rented a villa in Italy. The proprietress told us of its history. She said that every 200 years the terracotta roof tiles were carefully taken down and the wooden roof beams replaced. Then the same roof tiles were replaced...for another 200 years. To say that the lifespan of a masonry structure is but 35 to 70 years is ludicrous!
Piers are interesting. We have quite a few here in England. We have two in Bournemouth where I live, on the south coast of England. Another thing attributed to those clever Victorians! A lot of 'old world' structures here in this town too...I've done quite a few close up videos on those but nowhere near enough! ..Nice video.. 😎🏛
Thanks for continuing to add soothing music to your videos. I've noticed other such content makers have given up on it, but I think - since this revelation is a bitter pill for newbies - as well as seasoned artists (like myself), who can be totally upset over the destruction of these edifices - the calming sounds make it easier to swallow. You're exposing hard facts that blow Paradigms apart, or, at least portions of them - that put current events in a more enlightened aspect. Example: Who and what are people voting for when all of the entities involved support 'The Founders' in charge?
You know how they say we only use ten percent of our brain? I think we have fallen from a previous higher state of consciousness. I think we're destined to go back to that state of being..
🙋🏻♀Something which has caught my eye👀the wicker looking pram or cart on the boardwalk 2:53 & 8:29 and this got me thinking about furniture on Airships; which needed to be lightweight and durable. Wicker and cane. I restored antique chairs for over 40 years so furniture draws my attention. I’ve gone looking for photos of Airship interiors and seen quite a lot of wicker. Certainly curious about who funds the demolitions. Thank you as always for your awesome research and your exquisite😌opening music.
14:24 The curiously small ground-floor windows are a great, quick way to see clear evidence of a level rise, be it cataclysm or otherwise. No architect would ever design it like that. What's interesting about this building here - always something to look out for - is the lack of symmetry between the top and bottom part of the building, using the thick horizontal brick-work line as a divider. The building looks very top-heavy. On the other hand, imagine what the building would look like without the level rise - with normal size ground-floor windows - and there would likely be symmetry when using the horizontal line as a measure.
I work in AC atleast a few times a week It is a shame what us happening there A lot if the old buildings are being dropped & some have facades built over the original stone work…. I installed an alarm system in a lil convenience store. The odd part was the store was a long trailer backed into the entrance of an old theater It was blocked up on the inside where the seating would have started. He opened the rear door of the shop and I was amazed that you walk down like 5/6 steps and end up in a sloped concrete slab it was dark but some light slipped in thru cracks in wall/ceiling…. It was 20 yrs ago so way before cell phone with camera. Just amazing how when the average person shopped there they had no idea they were inside a huge theater! Typical amazing trim columns the exotic paintings were still there but so dark I couldn’t make any style out … it was a very kool experience. I had to install motion detectors because homeless were getting in and making a mess on balconies etc… I wish I could get in there now to get some pics Keep😊 up the great job. It us weird to see a place I frequent on a video. Philadelphia is another crazy old world city
Ok, I grew up in AC. I seen a lot of these older buildings. I learned how to swim at the Ambasader Hotel pool , I went to all the Piers on the weekends. I worked building the Bally's Casino while revamping the Hotel Dennis. at the same time the Clarage Hotel was also being revamped. the biggest problem was getting the old buildings up to code and installing fire protection. You didn't mention the Convention Hall was the largest room with no support structures in the world and the Miss American Pagent was started there, it also had Mini car reaces along with football games plus countless large conventions, the Pipe orgen was the largest in the world and it is still working. the Boardwalk is 5 miles long. I went to the AC High School and graduated in 73. But looking at moet of your Pictures of a lot of building I have never seen makes me feel young lol. Remember what our Motto used to be ( ATLANTIC CITY -THE WORLDS PLAYGROUND )
@@oldworldex Yes did. but not what it was actually used for, did you know during 2nd world war it was used to house tanks and other arsonal? you just skiped over it like it was just another building but was an architectural wonder back then.
Asbury park nj, also on the ocean front, had an extraordinary organ (worlds largest[?]) inside a beautiful building. Building destroyed & organ pipes literally scattered in the New Jersey pine barrons, similar to the original Madison Square garden columns being scattered in upstate ny forrests
12:05 "I understand people will use the argument that it's just progress and money driving this.". Actually, that may be partially true (e.g. maximise profit with more effective design, etc.). But, as you know, it doesn't explain why and how the buildings were constructed in the first place!
My maternal grandparents lived in Atlantic City for years. My mom and dad met on the beach in Atlantic City in the early 60s. I spent summers in Atlantic City from 1964 thorough til the early 80s when the casinos were being established. It was the final nail in the coffin for Atlantic City. I have great childhood memories of my time in that city. I love the amusement piers especially Million Dollar Pier.
We go to NJ shore every year, ocean city, south of AC. Early 70's we drove up to AC and looked at a new building they were putting up. It was a ghost town and I remember my grandpa and parents were lamenting the destruction and rebuilding of city. The war memorial is still standing today. The new casinos did okbthrough the 1980's, but then the whole city died again. It is very sad there today. Some older buildings but mainly crap boxy buildings.
The last time I was at the city I was sick at all the brick shell buildings there were full city blocks ready to fall. Made me sick to see all the old falling and the new ugly high rises along the shore.
The photos are amazing. So hi-res for the time. And I can't understand how sitting in sand, fully clothed, in what must be slightly cold weather seems like fun. What is the allure of this?
13:15, this is Central Pier and houses an arcade and a couple shops, including a dollar store. There was a fire in the spring and some stores were affected. But if you did adequate research, you would know this.
It was 75 degrees the other day. But a couple weeks ago, it was 58 because the southern wind pushed the warm surface water out and the cold water came in. Look up the term upwelling and you’ll have a better answer.
OWE, at 4:47, that building is still around. It is the offices of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority. Honestly, I really wish you would do more research beyond some cursory google searches and Wikipedia. Maybe visit the town before you spew a bunch of falsehoods. I’m really tired of correcting some of the misinformation that hit and run UA-camrs like yourself present. It is so easy to knock a place like Atlantic City from afar. I
@@thehammer4625 why do i need an answer to why the water is cold ? i don't ! just because a random person lives somewhere does NOT mean they know everything about the place .
@@whirlofbliss5925 because your comment about the water freezing in august was factually correct, but it is not normally freezing in august. You do realize some other folks read these comments.
16:10, the Dennis Hotel, this is the Dennis Tower at Ballys, it was constructed over several years, it still stands today. Come on down and you can see it for yourself.
It is also likely that their were not actually tons of people in indane asylums but rather tons of empty old world buildings that needed to be designated as something to justify them being there. By designating old world buildings mental hospitals the building could be claimed and designated as a goverment building and by being called insane asylums you get the general.population from poking around because nobody would of wanted to be near crazy people as it is or have peope seen them near buildings thought to be mental asylums and have the community think they were there for themselves or a family member. A lot of th buildings they told us were mental hospitals built in the 1800s were likely empty to near empty and not actually filled with people but the buildings had to be desginated for some use to justify there existance especially early on before they had the means or the workforce to be able to tear them down. Many of these buildings that were torn down later on were likely torn down to try and hide how many empty buildings there were as a prior civilization would of had to be even more hidden as we started bringing in millons of inmigrants who would be settling in groups abd have enough peope to be able to question and poke around empty buildings. Likely the mormons thougt america was the holy land due to all the empty buildings on the middle of nowhere and the empty buildings were the evidence that convinced so many people to be mormons. I don’t see the mormon religion growing as it did without something people saw as evidence for the religion.
Love your videos and thank you for all the hours each video Must take to compile n edit!! As you know doubt know, it is so so wonderful to be Awake , and full of knowledge of just what all "they" have been hiding from all of us ! ..... people Need to Research Eric Dubay 200 proofs earth is not a spinning ball
Interesting and thanks for posting. Some great structures but I find it hard to see anything attractive about the Traymore hotel. I think it would have been kitsch in its day and didn’t date well.
12:24, this fountain and James Whelen Boardwalk Hall are still standing. But if you took some time to visit, instead of mailing it in, you would know it.
Music hall 🎶🎵 by the see/sea, on piers/peers peer is to look gawk see piers are on what? Pillars...this one was very hard to watch the destruction & considering the blue screen tacts developed there.
I guess they get wiped out by those who are the "victors" and the last civilization they did it to here was the one they called the "Aboriginals" or "Indigenous" renamed "Indians" and now known as "Native Americans". They admit to having decimated this civilization. "We" descend from the "Im-migrants" they replaced the Ab-originals with. A "Melting Pot" of peoples from everywhere, crammed into the eastern states to get together and venture out and create the New World Civilization. The Great Experiment has ended and those of us still existing are collateral damage. It is now our time to be decimated and wiped out.
It looks like a lot of tops to these buildings are missing, they are flat tops as if they removed a structure such as domes or towers or just more floors. Not all of the but some of them.
Hi OWE! would you be interested making an "introduction" video to the research, a 15-20min long video that would compile all the most convincing evidence and absurdities of the old world across the realm for those people who are new to the old world and are rejecting the idea - a video that would give them the big picture with the best examples and major plot holes and would inspire them to look further into the research? beacause the problem so often is that those who reject the idea aren't willing to look hours of footage to change their mind, and this type of introduction video is missing from the research, making it very easy for them to reject this saying they're not going to watch many hours of videos of something they are already rejecting. compile things like the most absurd construction times, the mindblowing interior and exterior architecture, basement windows, sanitariums and orphanages, lack of any believable construction images, the complete abscence of the blueprints and construction plans, worker and their education details, etc. and showing it's all worldwide and uniform, crunched into the 15-20min timespan to be linked for anyone new as the introduction like hey, go to OWE and see this video.
@@oldworldex Not spam at all. Just observations from someone who visits Atlantic City a lot. I am not sure how the whole youtube thing works, but there are a lot of Atlantic City videos that come off being negative. A little research would tell the story. Many hotels, yes. But in the 1960's and 1970's, Atlantic City fell out of favor with vacationers as folks from the big cities nearby (Philadelphia and New York) decided to go to other destinations by air. Atlantic City became less desirable and it fell into disrepair. Go watch King of Marvin Gardens, and the film Atlantic City with Burt Lancaster and Susan Sarandon..
Most likely these building were built by fallen angels. Also we know that the reset could not of been that long ago because there would of been a much larger native american population here than there was if they had been in america for thousands of years. Also their was probably far less native americans here than they tell us there was. The numbers were most likely inflated to justify being able to say the native americans were here for thousands of years and in all that time did not yet develop civilization to the extent we had. In reality they has probably only come up from underground for a couple hundred years if that when europeans got here.
@@oldworldex ill have to see that one. Windsor(1637) is older but less interesting i think. Manchester(1672) has cold war missle silos my granddad worked there, tunnels, beautiful parks, good schools, historic buildings, a minitown within thats just a giant mall area called Buckland Hills built over a site that used to be excavated for prehistoric organisms. Really fun place to grow up and apparently now its much safer than it used to be.
The common narrative is that Atlantic City has been a horrible tourist trap for ummm... like a century or two or so. You go! city named after the ocean next to you. C'est drole non?
That circular cursor flying all over the screen is unnecessary and distracting… and ruins the otherwise quality of the video. The narration is good… and enough.
11:10, Knights of Columbus at Pacific Ave and St. James Place. Still standing as of yesterday. Instead of saying “I don’t know” maybe do some real research and you will know for sure. Maybe you will get some more views.
You realize that Atlantic City was one of the first resorts, so the population is not relevant. The city was developed for tourism and folks arrived by train from New York and Philadelphia vacation. I wish folks who make these videos refrain from saying “I don’t know, I’m not sure” because a little research would eliminate equivocations like this.
@@oldworldex yes, there are even things like libraries that have access to online databases such as old newspaper articles that could let you do some research. But that would take time for you to do and take you away from other projects. The Press of Atlantic City, the Philadelphia Inquirer, and the New York Times would be great places to start. These publications all have archives.
@@oldworldex these would be some of the papers of the region with searchable databases for that time period. In case you wanted some answers to the many of your “I don’t know” comments. I guess you really are a carpenter.
I don’t know what makes me laugh hardest: Atheists, Flat-Earthers, or people who judge the past by the present like you. Where did they get all the workers? In the late 19th and early 20th centuries? Hint: immigrants weren’t being given free money, and no one made a living making videos about their silly theories. They worked for a living in factories, on farms, at building sites, on railroads, on ships and barges. We had master craftsmen, proud of their work. If this stupid line of misthinking continues, it’s only a matter of time before someone claims that Walt Disney stumbled on a huge city complete with monorails and “hidden Mickeys” in the middle of a Florida swamp just a few years after discovering a smaller but almost identical one in Anaheim.
Misthinking? lol! You think I make a living doing videos? Hard to do when my channel's not monestized. I'm a carpenter by trade actually, and there's no way they were building these with the means we are told they had in the stunted construction timelines we are given. NO WAY!!
Everything Walt Disney created was fake/make believe for entertainment purposes. What this exploration is doing is looking at REALITY, incredibly built structures that served a real purpose. In the Bible Jesus implores us to seek truth. We are simply asking questions that seemingly have there answers in Christ. I don't care how many immigrants you have or how hard you work. The detail, beauty and precision of the construction is a miracle. Atheist don't believe in miracles. Touche' my friend.
Tartaria is literally the most batshit of all conspiracy theories. That's just what 19th century Western architecture looked like, neo-classical. America tore down most of its 19th century buildings in the post WWII period because we developed a rather foolhardy cultural belief in progress and modernism. WWII brought about massive social and philosophical changes in the West, and basically was the end of actual classical Western civilization. The simplest way of explaining this stuff is that that's just what the world was actually like a hundred years ago. It was neither long enough ago nor different enough from our current era to make the claim that it was a previous civilization.
I used to totally be on your side and totally understand your mindset. After what has happened these last 23 years many of us have woken up because of the over the top lies and deceptions. We are simply asking questions that nobody has any good answers to other than to say " that's just the way it was back then". I really wish someone could give us an explanation that makes sense of the "narrative" , although, it's always the same thing; they worked harder, they took pride in their work..... I'm sorry please open your eyes. These things are beyond hard work and pride.
Nah your wrong on this one Im 80s old and remeber these structures construction was far ahead of what you think People works twice as hard as today, everybody was assholes and elbows flat out. a lot of marble was designed to fit and sent to Italy to e made and then delivered and assymbled onsite telegram to marbleheads to boat to land to building the old chuch i attened the alter 40 foot tall and 35 foot wide solid piece was bought by frineds of my family and donated to the church as it was being built it was carved in italy then shipped the barged up ricer to steam cranes to super heavy duty old flatbed MAck truck 1940s then slowly through the streets to the chuch and set then rest of the church built around it
@@whirlofbliss5925 They still wouldn't of been able to work I the winter. They still would of needed to take time to eat and sleep. Material still meed to be delivered and before all that land needed to be cleared and roads needed to be put In to bring in materials and people working twice as fast or even ten times as fast in th 1800s would not be even half as fast as lazy people with machines would be able to work today and why wouldn't people of built homes to stand back than instead of building themselves wood shacks? The commenter above is either being wilfully ignorant or is some kind of troll trying to push a false narrative. You would not even to be able to work about half the year due to snow and cold
Being born in the 30's doesn't qualify you as a historian for this stuff. You were told what you were told. It was all already here by the time anyone alive today came on the scene. Sorry St Michael... this is worldwide. And populations couldn't have supported these constructions. It makes no sense. Chris is spot on.
Okay, how do you explain All the incredible buildings/structures built prior to the 20th Century going back to what they tell us 1400's or even the Egyptian pyramids.
@@babbleonfox plus the buildings we are discussing were allegedly constructed way before the 1940's. The only thing he would of ever seen was renovations.
Great work, Thank You from NJ. 🙏🏼❤️
clear and crisp pictures!
I was blessed to have stayed at The Traymore as a young boy in summer of 1971 with my parents.
Wow, these structures are amazing.
They are all real works of art. ❤
Thank you for this beautiful tour of Atlantic City's old world buildings. I was in Atlantic City in the seventies when I was four with my parents, but I remember absolutely zero about it. I went again when I was eighteen with my grandmother for the day -- we lived in Baltimore, so it was about two hours each way. We went on a bus for senior citizens who wanted to go to the casinos. I couldn't go in, so I got thrown out of the casino itself. She didn't care. She just played a few slots and was done. I think we went and got something to eat, then took a walk by the beach. I was happy to spend some time with my grandmother. I wish I remembered something. I do remember seeing a restaurant or a casino built on a pier. Maybe that's what happened to the one that you showed us. She was such an amazing woman.
Have a beautiful day. 🌻🦋
Much love and blessings. 🤗❤️💖💜🙏
Your presentation of what used to be in Atlantic City was astounding. Perfect example of maybe what "they" have planned for all cities eventually. Not a coincidence that almost all TV Late Shows and News Shows always show a skyline of boring boxy skyscrapers, and not Beautiful Old World Architecture that in many cases is still here to see.
Greetings from South Africa! Thanks for all your wonderful videos!!!
Great to have you here..thanks for watching!
Remember also the game Monopoly was based on this city. Truly had 4 major railroads meeting there.
Short Line was a bus company. The rest was true. It was a resort community. In order to get there from Philadelphia before the RR’s were built, you had to take a stage coach in three middle of the night in order to get there by the following afternoon.
Ih yes this one is wild 4 sure.. Thank you love and regards 🗽❤🔥
Excellent find on all these Old World buildings. Thank you Chris for your comment to this subject❤
When I lived in NY , frequented Atlantic city and ALWAYS wondered about the mainstream narrative ! Thank you for supporting sanity
😍
Sanity😂
this is hardly a narrative. It's just a bunch of postcards with someone adding some lines like, I don't know, I'm not sure. Wow there were a lot of hotels down here. Stuff like that.
I live in Northern NJ and go to Atlantic city almost once a year. The hotels are modern with interior design and comfort in mind. It's all geared towards gambling and slot machines. A lot is abandoned and out of business. The boardwalk is full of homeless and panhandlers. The people are so desperate that they are happy to take your leftovers from dinner and you can see them feeding their children under the pavilions and some live under the boardwalk. The stores are mostly souvenir types and in inland stores are brand name outlet stores that are virtually devoid of customers selling ugly clothes that no one wanted. Often the hotels will feature some good has-been bands and other entertaining shows. My husband likes magic shows and you can find that here usually. The hard rock cafe hotel is pretty cool because they have a lot of rock star's costumes beautifully displayed. For some reason they have all of the windows to their inner courtyard blocked so you can't see their giant guitar sculpture. I feel like everything "victorian" was gone before I moved here in 1989. There are still a lot of victorian structures in Cape May NJ, but it's mostly wooden not stone. I like to go to Atlantic City because the beach isn't too crowded and you can enjoy a very comfortable hotel room. I don't like the casinos, and find them really creepy and depressing. There's an awful vibe about the whole place, but the beach is nice. I used to try to get my husband to get us a room in the poconos instead, but the deals for the rooms in Atlantic City are really good, and there's always a decent restaurant to eat at. I remember it being nicer 30 years ago.
My parents met in Atlantic City on the Labor Day Weekend, 1950, along the Boardwalk near the Convention Hall. My mom used to say that she and her friends would stay at the Hotel Wilkes-Barre. I don't remember where my dad used to stay. My parents got married in October 1952. Early in their marriage, they would vacation in AC and used to stay at a full-service beachfront hotel with a large Jewish clientele in the summer of 1957 & '58. A couple of years later, they found John's Motel, on the recommendation of my dad's co-workers. Later, Atlantic City got too rough for them and we went to another shore point, Stone Harbor. My friends and I would visit the Atlantic City casinos many years later.
One my favorite Canucks 💪I've been there a few times over the years and it has changed SO much , even in the last 25 years alone . It gives you that old world energy when you're there by the way . Love the work as always , bud . God bless you and your future explorers .
Love the content my friend… Thank you
Excellent video. It's a tragedy that a lot of those beatiful buildings were destroyed for the casinos. And the redevelopment projects in the 70s and 80s took the ones that survived the first waves of destruction. A lot of those lots remain vacant today! However, it makes you cherish the old ones that still remain. Like the Knife and Fork, built before the 1920s, still going strong. And the Irish Pub, originally the Elwood, built in 1903. That building still stands in it's orginal condition. It is also still in operation as a small hotel and popular bar and restaurant. The architecture of the pub was used as the inspiration of the hotel game pieces for Monopoly. Some people refer to building as the Monopoly hotel, because it sits on St James Place. Some of the old world buildings ypu have shown are still with us today. Some are unrecognizable.
Thank you for taking the time and putting in the effort to show us what humankind was once capable of. Its like a time travel channel and I'm a nostalgic person therefore your presentations resonate with me.
Jersey girl originally, my Mom was from Philly. Atlantic City was the summer playground for many people when she was a child, that would have been the 1940's.
She, my grandparents, her cousins all used to talk about how much fun they had during the summer in Atlantic City. It was known for its salt water taffy. Sounded like it still had some of the Old World vibe left.
By the time I was a kid, AC was in decline. Geez, Chris, until I watched your video today I had no idea how severe that decline was meaning from such utter....utter magnificence.
By the time I visited it, it was the era of organized crime and casinos and the vibe was SO low and the old buildings that were left were neglected and felt like they were full of ghosts.
I am glad I didn't know what was there before because I would have found it heartbreaking.
However, I did see The Ramones there around 1979-ish? I don't remember what building it was it might have been the Music Hall but it was a pretty humble, one floor sort of building. No fancy acoustics and The Ramones loved to blast. My ears were ringing for days!
thank you for sharing..
I love how they just put a cross on the roof and -- magically! -- it's transformed into a church!
Same with putting a sign on anything, and it's automatically a post office, a school, a hotel, a bank, a theater, a city hall, a hospital...
In a thousand years, archeologists will be amazed at how many temples and tombs we had. Maybe a few palaces thrown in?
Atlantic City was the best resort town of New Jersey! Great history and architecture at its best!
Atlantic City was part of ancient Atlantis and tartaria.
And the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport was a flying carpet port started by Ali Baba.
I remember visiting Atlantic City back in the 60s and 70s. It was dilapidated but the architecture was so beautiful.🎉 it was very sad to see what they replaced it with.
Just came across your wonderful video on the history of AC. I was born and raised there and still live nearby. I spent my childhood on the Boardwalk in the 1970s and grew-up in a very ornate and grand home typical of the area back then. I am familiar with many of the structures and histories you talked about. If you like, I could spend the time and comment on each of the buildings you reviewed (and some you didn't) but it would take pages. However, since you are obviously serious about this kind of lost history, I'd be happy to do so... Just ask. Thank you for making sure that the past doesn't become just a memory.
WOW awesome presentation !!!!!! I had no idea as to the extent AC was built out with "old worldian" structures! Great job as always brother! 🙏
Thank you very much!
Where we live in the North of Scotland, used to have a local railway line to the main line. You can still see where the old line was and the platform and station are still there. I have a picture of a steam train coming straight through our garden back in the day. It was closed down in 1960
In the museum there are two pictures of when they "cut the first sod". One of which there are some people looking forward to the sod cutting whilst leaning with their backs against a fence. The railway is already built and behind this fence. The sods are too far up the hill
It is a completely staged photo from "1900", everyone in the picture look immaculately dressed
Another picture shows the open day of the railway said to be 1902. There is a stage picture of the well to do and "locals" on the platform, in front of the station building only showing the roof. Clearly they don't want to show the condition of the building. What they do show is below the platform is very old railway sleepers and track, even the wall of the platform is very old looking, made of sleepers. All the pictures could have been taken on the same day. freemason clown puppet andrew carneigie features as well, which confirms the staging of the event
They do not have one picture of the railway being laid ......
As with any old world railways or buildings the narrative never adds up
Everything has been a lie
Who was staying in these hotels?
I remember seeing the Marlborough Blenheim being demolished. I wasnt sad. I thought it was tacky and never liked it. My brother and father were sad. I think this was right after the first casino, the boringly-named Resorts International opened. There was excitement in the air. But the old fashioned charm of Atlantic City was being removed.
We once rented a villa in Italy. The proprietress told us of its history. She said that every 200 years the terracotta roof tiles were carefully taken down and the wooden roof beams replaced. Then the same roof tiles were replaced...for another 200 years. To say that the lifespan of a masonry structure is but 35 to 70 years is ludicrous!
Piers are interesting. We have quite a few here in England. We have two in Bournemouth where I live, on the south coast of England. Another thing attributed to those clever Victorians! A lot of 'old world' structures here in this town too...I've done quite a few close up videos on those but nowhere near enough!
..Nice video.. 😎🏛
I've seen them in Brighton and Aberytswyth as well. They're something that would never get built in our day.
Thanks for continuing to add soothing music to your videos. I've noticed other such content makers have given up on it, but I think - since this revelation is a bitter pill for newbies - as well as seasoned artists (like myself), who can be totally upset over the destruction of these edifices - the calming sounds make it easier to swallow.
You're exposing hard facts that blow Paradigms apart, or, at least portions of them - that put current events in a more enlightened aspect. Example: Who and what are people voting for when all of the entities involved support 'The Founders' in charge?

You know how they say we only use ten percent of our brain? I think we have fallen from a previous higher state of consciousness. I think we're destined to go back to that state of being..

🙋🏻♀Something which has caught my eye👀the wicker looking pram or cart on the boardwalk 2:53 & 8:29 and this got me thinking about furniture on Airships; which needed to be lightweight and durable. Wicker and cane. I restored antique chairs for over 40 years so furniture draws my attention. I’ve gone looking for photos of Airship interiors and seen quite a lot of wicker. Certainly curious about who funds the demolitions. Thank you as always for your awesome research and your exquisite😌opening music.
The hotel that Bally bought was beautiful
🫠 Your channel has me looking at our realm and history with a fresh pair of eyes, and I love it.😊
Thank you
That's the intent. I appreciate your comment very much thank you.
14:24 The curiously small ground-floor windows are a great, quick way to see clear evidence of a level rise, be it cataclysm or otherwise. No architect would ever design it like that. What's interesting about this building here - always something to look out for - is the lack of symmetry between the top and bottom part of the building, using the thick horizontal brick-work line as a divider. The building looks very top-heavy. On the other hand, imagine what the building would look like without the level rise - with normal size ground-floor windows - and there would likely be symmetry when using the horizontal line as a measure.
I work in AC atleast a few times a week It is a shame what us happening there A lot if the old buildings are being dropped & some have facades built over the original stone work…. I installed an alarm system in a lil convenience store. The odd part was the store was a long trailer backed into the entrance of an old theater It was blocked up on the inside where the seating would have started. He opened the rear door of the shop and I was amazed that you walk down like 5/6 steps and end up in a sloped concrete slab it was dark but some light slipped in thru cracks in wall/ceiling…. It was 20 yrs ago so way before cell phone with camera. Just amazing how when the average person shopped there they had no idea they were inside a huge theater! Typical amazing trim columns the exotic paintings were still there but so dark I couldn’t make any style out … it was a very kool experience. I had to install motion detectors because homeless were getting in and making a mess on balconies etc… I wish I could get in there now to get some pics Keep😊 up the great job. It us weird to see a place I frequent on a video. Philadelphia is another crazy old world city
Ok, I grew up in AC. I seen a lot of these older buildings. I learned how to swim at the Ambasader Hotel pool , I went to all the Piers on the weekends. I worked building the Bally's Casino while revamping the Hotel Dennis. at the same time the Clarage Hotel was also being revamped. the biggest problem was getting the old buildings up to code and installing fire protection. You didn't mention the Convention Hall was the largest room with no support structures in the world and the Miss American Pagent was started there, it also had Mini car reaces along with football games plus countless large conventions, the Pipe orgen was the largest in the world and it is still working. the Boardwalk is 5 miles long. I went to the AC High School and graduated in 73. But looking at moet of your Pictures of a lot of building I have never seen makes me feel young lol. Remember what our Motto used to be ( ATLANTIC CITY -THE WORLDS PLAYGROUND )
I think I did mention the convention hall..
@@oldworldex Yes did. but not what it was actually used for, did you know during 2nd world war it was used to house tanks and other arsonal? you just skiped over it like it was just another building but was an architectural wonder back then.
I Love it
another great presentation, ❤🎉
Asbury park nj, also on the ocean front, had an extraordinary organ (worlds largest[?]) inside a beautiful building. Building destroyed & organ pipes literally scattered in the New Jersey pine barrons, similar to the original Madison Square garden columns being scattered in upstate ny forrests
12:05 "I understand people will use the argument that it's just progress and money driving this.". Actually, that may be partially true (e.g. maximise profit with more effective design, etc.). But, as you know, it doesn't explain why and how the buildings were constructed in the first place!
Greetings from France. Love your job ! Thank you !
Pretty strange that a RESORT town with very few full-time, year-round residents would need not only one, but TWO massive High Schools! 😵💫
My maternal grandparents lived in Atlantic City for years. My mom and dad met on the beach in Atlantic City in the early 60s. I spent summers in Atlantic City from 1964 thorough til the early 80s when the casinos were being established. It was the final nail in the coffin for Atlantic City. I have great childhood memories of my time in that city. I love the amusement piers especially Million Dollar Pier.
Amazing video, maybe a video on West Chester, PA would be cool. I see a lot of old world buildings when I'm over there.
Great job...im from jersey
We go to NJ shore every year, ocean city, south of AC. Early 70's we drove up to AC and looked at a new building they were putting up. It was a ghost town and I remember my grandpa and parents were lamenting the destruction and rebuilding of city. The war memorial is still standing today. The new casinos did okbthrough the 1980's, but then the whole city died again. It is very sad there today. Some older buildings but mainly crap boxy buildings.
I noticed an old world building in Vancouver Canada. A school, on one side it said 1910, on the other side it said 1912.
Great video brother ☮🕊
The last time I was at the city I was sick at all the brick shell buildings there were full city blocks ready to fall. Made me sick to see all the old falling and the new ugly high rises along the shore.
Please do a video on Lancaster, PA! I love your channel!
Love everything about this channel. 👁️👍
The aether cavitated and coalesced in the bell towers
The photos are amazing. So hi-res for the time. And I can't understand how sitting in sand, fully clothed, in what must be slightly cold weather seems like fun. What is the allure of this?
another great vid!
13:15, this is Central Pier and houses an arcade and a couple shops, including a dollar store. There was a fire in the spring and some stores were affected. But if you did adequate research, you would know this.
The water is freezing around AC , freezing in august I tell ya...
It was 75 degrees the other day. But a couple weeks ago, it was 58 because the southern wind pushed the warm surface water out and the cold water came in. Look up the term upwelling and you’ll have a better answer.
OWE, at 4:47, that building is still around. It is the offices of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority.
Honestly, I really wish you would do more research beyond some cursory google searches and Wikipedia. Maybe visit the town before you spew a bunch of falsehoods.
I’m really tired of correcting some of the misinformation that hit and run UA-camrs like yourself present. It is so easy to knock a place like Atlantic City from afar.

@@thehammer4625 he is not knocking Atlantic city , but the story attached to it doesn't fit .
@@thehammer4625 why do i need an answer to why the water is cold ? i don't ! just because a random person lives somewhere does NOT mean they know everything about the place .
@@whirlofbliss5925 because your comment about the water freezing in august was factually correct, but it is not normally freezing in august. You do realize some other folks read these comments.
Peace God 💛
16:10, the Dennis Hotel, this is the Dennis Tower at Ballys, it was constructed over several years, it still stands today. Come on down and you can see it for yourself.
The health narrative/ railroad narrative is in my town of Eureka Springs Arkansas Arkansas.
It is also likely that their were not actually tons of people in indane asylums but rather tons of empty old world buildings that needed to be designated as something to justify them being there. By designating old world buildings mental hospitals the building could be claimed and designated as a goverment building and by being called insane asylums you get the general.population from poking around because nobody would of wanted to be near crazy people as it is or have peope seen them near buildings thought to be mental asylums and have the community think they were there for themselves or a family member. A lot of th buildings they told us were mental hospitals built in the 1800s were likely empty to near empty and not actually filled with people but the buildings had to be desginated for some use to justify there existance especially early on before they had the means or the workforce to be able to tear them down. Many of these buildings that were torn down later on were likely torn down to try and hide how many empty buildings there were as a prior civilization would of had to be even more hidden as we started bringing in millons of inmigrants who would be settling in groups abd have enough peope to be able to question and poke around empty buildings. Likely the mormons thougt america was the holy land due to all the empty buildings on the middle of nowhere and the empty buildings were the evidence that convinced so many people to be mormons. I don’t see the mormon religion growing as it did without something people saw as evidence for the religion.
25:45, St. Michael’s, this church is still standing and has services.
Hotel Dennis still stands. Part of casino now.
Love your videos and thank you for all the hours each video Must take to compile n edit!! As you know doubt know, it is so so wonderful to be Awake , and full of knowledge of just what all "they" have been hiding from all of us ! ..... people Need to Research Eric Dubay 200 proofs earth is not a spinning ball
Interesting and thanks for posting. Some great structures but I find it hard to see anything attractive about the Traymore hotel. I think it would have been kitsch in its day and didn’t date well.
12:24, this fountain and James Whelen Boardwalk Hall are still standing. But if you took some time to visit, instead of mailing it in, you would know it.
Music hall 🎶🎵 by the see/sea, on piers/peers peer is to look gawk see piers are on what? Pillars...this one was very hard to watch the destruction & considering the blue screen tacts developed there.
Many civilizations existed
but what happened and what are we?
I guess they get wiped out by those who are the "victors" and the last civilization they did it to here was the one they called the "Aboriginals" or "Indigenous" renamed "Indians" and now known as "Native Americans". They admit to having decimated this civilization. "We" descend from the "Im-migrants" they replaced the Ab-originals with. A "Melting Pot" of peoples from everywhere, crammed into the eastern states to get together and venture out and create the New World Civilization. The Great Experiment has ended and those of us still existing are collateral damage. It is now our time to be decimated and wiped out.
@@mlmiller6 androgynous creatures, all of them. This channel deleted my comments to you on the other video.
It looks like a lot of tops to these buildings are missing, they are flat tops as if they removed a structure such as domes or towers or just more floors. Not all of the but some of them.
Hi OWE! would you be interested making an "introduction" video to the research, a 15-20min long video that would compile all the most convincing evidence and absurdities of the old world across the realm for those people who are new to the old world and are rejecting the idea - a video that would give them the big picture with the best examples and major plot holes and would inspire them to look further into the research? beacause the problem so often is that those who reject the idea aren't willing to look hours of footage to change their mind, and this type of introduction video is missing from the research, making it very easy for them to reject this saying they're not going to watch many hours of videos of something they are already rejecting.
compile things like the most absurd construction times, the mindblowing interior and exterior architecture, basement windows, sanitariums and orphanages, lack of any believable construction images, the complete abscence of the blueprints and construction plans, worker and their education details, etc. and showing it's all worldwide and uniform, crunched into the 15-20min timespan to be linked for anyone new as the introduction like hey, go to OWE and see this video.
Oh yeah... It's Friday... What's up Chris!!!
9:51 looks like Louis Vuitton symbols on roofline
12:44, cheers to you! You actually realized that Carnegie Library still stands. That was your first real piece of research.
I'll give you this: you certainly know how to spam my comment section.
@@oldworldex Not spam at all. Just observations from someone who visits Atlantic City a lot. I am not sure how the whole youtube thing works, but there are a lot of Atlantic City videos that come off being negative. A little research would tell the story. Many hotels, yes. But in the 1960's and 1970's, Atlantic City fell out of favor with vacationers as folks from the big cities nearby (Philadelphia and New York) decided to go to other destinations by air. Atlantic City became less desirable and it fell into disrepair. Go watch King of Marvin Gardens, and the film Atlantic City with Burt Lancaster and Susan Sarandon..
There's a adult buggy I saw for the first time with men pushing the women. I hope they're not married
Most likely these building were built by fallen angels. Also we know that the reset could not of been that long ago because there would of been a much larger native american population here than there was if they had been in america for thousands of years. Also their was probably far less native americans here than they tell us there was. The numbers were most likely inflated to justify being able to say the native americans were here for thousands of years and in all that time did not yet develop civilization to the extent we had. In reality they has probably only come up from underground for a couple hundred years if that when europeans got here.
Any chance you could do Manchester CT its one of the oldest town in the US?
Or Hartford maybe?
I did Hartford. Will check out Manchester thanks!

@@oldworldex ill have to see that one. Windsor(1637) is older but less interesting i think. Manchester(1672) has cold war missle silos my granddad worked there, tunnels, beautiful parks, good schools, historic buildings, a minitown within thats just a giant mall area called Buckland Hills built over a site that used to be excavated for prehistoric organisms. Really fun place to grow up and apparently now its much safer than it used to be.
Visited a week ago, Dump! Avoid at all costs.
The common narrative is that Atlantic City has been a horrible tourist trap for ummm... like a century or two or so. You go! city named after the ocean next to you. C'est drole non?
Galen Hall and Sanatorium?
9:42, that was Captain Young’s Cottage, his personal residence, on Million Dollar pier. This is the one across from Caesars.
Do better research.

11:10, Knights of Columbus at Pacific Ave and St. James Place. Still standing as of yesterday.
Instead of saying “I don’t know” maybe do some real research and you will know for sure. Maybe you will get some more views.
You realize that Atlantic City was one of the first resorts, so the population is not relevant. The city was developed for tourism and folks arrived by train from New York and Philadelphia vacation. I wish folks who make these videos refrain from saying “I don’t know, I’m not sure” because a little research would eliminate equivocations like this.
A little research would make you sure, would it? My point is the research can't be trusted...it's the fake news of the past.
@@oldworldex yes, there are even things like libraries that have access to online databases such as old newspaper articles that could let you do some research. But that would take time for you to do and take you away from other projects. The Press of Atlantic City, the Philadelphia Inquirer, and the New York Times would be great places to start. These publications all have archives.
@@thehammer4625 The New York Times? hahahaha gotcha.
@@oldworldex these would be some of the papers of the region with searchable databases for that time period. In case you wanted some answers to the many of your “I don’t know” comments.
I guess you really are a carpenter.
I don’t know what makes me laugh hardest: Atheists, Flat-Earthers, or people who judge the past by the present like you. Where did they get all the workers? In the late 19th and early 20th centuries? Hint: immigrants weren’t being given free money, and no one made a living making videos about their silly theories. They worked for a living in factories, on farms, at building sites, on railroads, on ships and barges. We had master craftsmen, proud of their work.
If this stupid line of misthinking continues, it’s only a matter of time before someone claims that Walt Disney stumbled on a huge city complete with monorails and “hidden Mickeys” in the middle of a Florida swamp just a few years after discovering a smaller but almost identical one in Anaheim.
Misthinking? lol! You think I make a living doing videos? Hard to do when my channel's not monestized. I'm a carpenter by trade actually, and there's no way they were building these with the means we are told they had in the stunted construction timelines we are given. NO WAY!!
Everything Walt Disney created was fake/make believe for entertainment purposes. What this exploration is doing is looking at REALITY, incredibly built structures that served a real purpose. In the Bible Jesus implores us to seek truth. We are simply asking questions that seemingly have there answers in Christ.
I don't care how many immigrants you have or how hard you work. The detail, beauty and precision of the construction is a miracle. Atheist don't believe in miracles. Touche' my friend.
Tartaria is literally the most batshit of all conspiracy theories. That's just what 19th century Western architecture looked like, neo-classical. America tore down most of its 19th century buildings in the post WWII period because we developed a rather foolhardy cultural belief in progress and modernism.
WWII brought about massive social and philosophical changes in the West, and basically was the end of actual classical Western civilization. The simplest way of explaining this stuff is that that's just what the world was actually like a hundred years ago. It was neither long enough ago nor different enough from our current era to make the claim that it was a previous civilization.
I used to totally be on your side and totally understand your mindset.
After what has happened these last 23 years many of us have woken up because of the over the top lies and deceptions.
We are simply asking questions that nobody has any good answers to other than to say " that's just the way it was back then". I really wish someone could give us an explanation that makes sense of the "narrative" , although, it's always the same thing; they worked harder, they took pride in their work.....
I'm sorry please open your eyes. These things are beyond hard work and pride.
Nah your wrong on this one Im 80s old and remeber these structures construction was far ahead of what you think People works twice as hard as today, everybody was assholes and elbows flat out. a lot of marble was designed to fit and sent to Italy to e made and then delivered and assymbled onsite telegram to marbleheads to boat to land to building the old chuch i attened the alter 40 foot tall and 35 foot wide solid piece was bought by frineds of my family and donated to the church as it was being built it was carved in italy then shipped the barged up ricer to steam cranes to super heavy duty old flatbed MAck truck 1940s then slowly through the streets to the chuch and set then rest of the church built around it
? what ever happened to people "working twice as hard " ...? they all stopped at the same time ...?how does that make sense ?
@@whirlofbliss5925 They still wouldn't of been able to work I the winter. They still would of needed to take time to eat and sleep. Material still meed to be delivered and before all that land needed to be cleared and roads needed to be put In to bring in materials and people working twice as fast or even ten times as fast in th 1800s would not be even half as fast as lazy people with machines would be able to work today and why wouldn't people of built homes to stand back than instead of building themselves wood shacks? The commenter above is either being wilfully ignorant or is some kind of troll trying to push a false narrative. You would not even to be able to work about half the year due to snow and cold
Being born in the 30's doesn't qualify you as a historian for this stuff. You were told what you were told. It was all already here by the time anyone alive today came on the scene. Sorry St Michael... this is worldwide. And populations couldn't have supported these constructions. It makes no sense. Chris is spot on.
