    At 4:33 we say that Lewis and Clark departed along the Mississippi River. We meant to say MISSOURI River!

      @Turk380 2 роки тому +1

      To say they departed from the Mississippi isn't ENTIRELY wrong, it just depends on what you consider to be the "official" starting point. The expedition camped in several places along the Ohio, and coming up the Mississippi stopping at Ste Genevieve & River Dubois in particular.

      Born and raise in stl Missouri should be a foreign German capitol you can see the German influence all over the state and especially Missouri Rhineland. My grandpa fled the germany in the 1920s it’s sad the German immigrants hid their nationality to escape being affiliated with a war mindset from 3000 miles away.

    Really nice job in less than ten minutes, Ken. It is a shame that Missouri and St. Louis History are not taught in our schools. History has become the 'missing link' in our education systems thanks to those who wish to extinguish our memories that could empower us. I remember going on Architectural tours in Downtown St. Louis where some of the old commercial buildings have quite a History. You have much material for your future tours for this is indeed a very historic city. I always look forward to each of them. Thank you for your thoroughness and knowledge of St. Louis History and architecture.

      When I was growing up in U. City, we were taught History quite thoroughly, including St.Louis, and Missouri History.
      But that was in the 1960’s.
      We learned about both Good and Bad parts of the History.

    Nice job, Ken. Glad to see your emphasis on Cahokia and the Caddoan culture. I recently found a commemorative coin from the 1904 St.Louis Fair in my grandmother's things. She never mentioned attending the fair (she was 10 years old and living in Wisconsin), but I believe her oldest brother must have, and brought back the souvenir. I discovered you through Kaleb Higgins' channel, and have learned so much about St. Louis history from you both. I love those antique 'bird's eye view' maps, and the one you used even shows that the buildings right on the river were built on stilts! I understand the need for waterfront redevelopment (we have it here in San Diego as well), but I'm always happy to see old buildings preserved and incorporated into new projects. Sadly, that is a rare sight in many places.

    ill never understand why we've always felt the need to graze the landscape to build our cities... there is a big hill there? well build some where else in the city that is flat and save yourself a whole lot of excavation costs. At least if you're going to ruin a historic 1,000 year old mound, build something that adds to it, instead of taking it away. Im much more of a fan of the Frank Lloyd Wright ideas on architecture and natural architecture that if youre going to build something it should add to the landscape and be set natural on the landscape as if it were naturally made to be a part of the landscape and enhance it rather than just doing mass excavation to level everything flat.

    Also as a StL native I love the look of the arch and the symbol that people can kind of rally around (sort of) and the fact that we have a nice big park right in the downtown core, but I wish it had never been built on that location. It destroyed a large portion of the city's history for a freaking vanity project. Even though across the river is in Illinois, they should have had it built on the other side of the river (assuming no major settlement was there, all I see today are unsightly corporate businesses there...) which might have inspired another downtown core to be settled around the arch there! A major cultural hub not constrained by the river but enhanced by it.
    Idk I could rant all day about things that should have been done (like StL being more accepting of certain infrastructure that could have made it what Chicago is today) or the placement of certain major roadways smack dab in the city center... but I guess its all piecemeal politics that have gotten us where we are.

    There just isn't any way all that stuff was built for the world fair and then destroyed. Look at how gigantic those structures are! Something just doesn't make sense here at all and I believe we are being lied to about our history. I'm sure they had a worlds fair, but we didn't build any of this and its impossible when you break everything down. The time frame, the construction, the tools of the time, the man power of the time, none of it adds up. Stolen lands from someone/something left out of HIS STORY.

    It seems that you put a lot of thought and research into making this video then messed it all up in editing by putting in that extremely distracting music its so loud that its too hard to understand what is being said! So I'm giving this video the first thumbs down in 1,222 views , 17 comments and 75 thumbs up!

      I didn't have that problem. Try adjusting your sound settings, the music is pretty quiet in the background

      @@pchts1 then possibly you could remove your thumbs down or perhaps give it a thumbs up. Compared to most vids on STL this one ranks very high. The gent who made it deserves a good grade for his efforts even if the end might have been loud for you. It seems a bit harsh to judge the whole thing based on just one technical issue that may have been yours all along. I've tried making videos. It's REAL hard!!

    The video had a good foundation for the information presented, BUT it was expressed more as a schools homework assignment than an educational video about St. Louis. It shouldn't have been made as a compression to St Louis's actual History. St Louis's has an astounding history that shouldn't be compressed into a 10 minute video, because there is just too much history that describes St Louis. You do St Louis a disservice by compressing a partial synopsis of it's History.

      We agree! This was more of a "timeline" of events than a breakdown of those events. That is why we have many history videos about St. Louis. Some are broad history and some are very specific events. Check out some of our other history videos if you are interested in more detailed history of other St. Louis events! Thanks for watching.

      This isn't any of our land. This land was stolen from an advanced race and everything about them was erased except for their buildings and some technology. The history they give us is HIS STORY and anything before the 1880's is a complete lie to hide what this place truly is. This place used to harvest electricity from the air, hence all the spires everywhere. Kinda funny they changed the power company to SPIRE.
