  • With the arrival of the Latter Day Saints in 1847 came the rapid construction of a brick and stone metropolis with all of the modern infrastructure available at the time. Or was it already there and just found...dead?

    Every time I see buildings like these I find myself speechless. I can't even wrap my head around the amount of work and talent that must have gone into them. They're just mind-boggling. Notice no one ever steps up and says hey, I can do work like that?! lol Great video!

  • @davidhunt3606
    @davidhunt3606 2 года назад +2

    It's funny because they built houses with basements in Utah, with windows below the ground level, my dad was a home builder and that was normal at least in the 1970's and 1980s. So when I first heard about the mud flood and windows being below ground level I was like "well they build them in Utah like that" and then later I realized why and I suspect it's because they thought that's how the had been built previously so of course it made sense

    • @oldworldex
      @oldworldex  2 года назад +3

      that's what I was thinking as well. We build them like that here and surround then with a window well. I now suspect it's an imitation of what was there...as you say. I appreciate your local insight on this video...

      I lived in Idaho Falls north of Salt Lake. The ground freezes in the winter to a depth of 3'-6" +/-, to be safe the foundation could be as deep as 4 foot. Once dig out that much you may as well dig out a full basement.
      And salt lake is not that much different, the frost line is about 31".

    Nice pictures but your narration was very vague and non descriptive which leaves the viewer confused as to what the point or purpose of the video is supposed to be. Rather than guide the viewer down an interesting rabbit hole you assumed they knew the whole story behind a mud flood and the relation to that and architecture and it just leaves the viewer confused and totally oblivious to the story and timeline you were trying to convey.

    your dumb comment about poles, ever head of electicity? it did exist in 1890. the stone wall was made to go around the temple square. That's why the eagle structure which exists today is there. You're gonna need to get into the inconsistencies of the temple btw you can'tjust flippantly just say "oh yea it's inconsistent" My ancestors participated in the construction of the temple. Along with the temple up in Logan Utah. It's not that far back. You seem to not realize that it took 40 years to build which means they had been in the salt lake valley for 50 years basically at that point. Well the announced the temple really shortly after they got to the valley. Did everyone just kinda ignore that it was ther for 50 years until theyfinally announced it was finished? there's plenty of evidence that the foundation had been buried to hide it from the US Army when it came to town which slowed the construction down. I'm not talking about just pictures I'm talking about written accounts. What about the fact that literally right now they are completely remodeling the temple? The whole thing is being set on a new foundation and completely redone. Look I get that it seems hard for you to understand and I am extremely sad that not all these buildings made it through the 40's and the big car era but sheesh dude.

Thats just reality. 50k is alot of people. It just doesn;t feel that way because we all live in suburbia. People didn't at that time.

    Great pictures and beautiful building but the narration shows a lack of research of any kind of depth. The "telegraph" (or not) lines had to telephone lines. A 10 second search found that there were 1200 phone subsribers in Salt Lake clear back in 1900. The Mormon Taberancle is still standing (the low rounded roof near the temple). The history of the temple bulding and Saltaire and other buildings is pretty well established. While I may disagree with the Mormon religion tennants they were/are really good at keeping records.

    The idea that the people of the American west couldn't have built these structures is hilarious. No one is trying to trick you with a "narrative". There are thousands of first hand accounts of how, why and when these structures were built. These theories always discount how fast the western united states expanded during this time period. The transcontinental railroad was just completed in the Salt Lake area, the height of the industrial revolution was happening, the gold rush was brining thousands of people out to the west, the Civil War had just ended and the entire country was in a prosperous time.
    The idea that some lost civilization built this stuff while discounting mountains of facts and evidence is ridiculously stupid, or blatantly dishonest at best.

Young and the original mormon settlers set up shop roughly in-between where the Native Americans were least densely populated.
