    I live in Hartford I’m so glad someone in community is covering it. I walk home from work everyday and for the last year or so my walk home has been so mind blowing even though I’ve walked a million time before. The capital building and the one across from it are amazing the capital has amazing Cymatics patterns on the windows too 👍🔮🌲🌳🗿❤️🙏✌️

      We were conditioned to blindly trust and not ask questions. Two times in my life over 30 years ago I was amazed at a golden age house and grounds in Indiana. Also a huge building in Washington, DC. Like how did they build it. We had no basis to make sense of these things, but at least we know they are lying to us now.

    I live 10 min. outside of Hartford and was recently there taking pics of the buildings. At 13:17 you can see the Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Arch. You can also see a bridge with 4 arches visible and a canal running through. When I was walking toward what used to be the arched bridge and canal (never knew that until this vid), I noticed the top couple inches of 2 of the arches under the bridge. Now ground level is at the top of the bridge arches and there is no canal.

    13:54 that exact pyramid can be found throughout America!
    17:00, that is an odd selection of characters on that impressive fountain!
    Red bricks, red bricks, I have seen the exact, same red brick, in every town and city from red brick coast to red brick coast and everywhere in between, as a Military Brat and 18 Wheeler. Seeing them and those fantastic court houses etc. I always wondered how/why everyone across America built out of the same damned red brick and why the style of the government buildings were so impressive. I have also, watched them tear them down, in the name of progress, of course!
    We are not inheritors, we are conquerors; when the Europeans came to the America's they slaughtered the survivors, who had not fully recovered from the last 'Whatever Event', the buildings and infrastructure was already in place!
    I think one reason there were so many devastating fires was due to the old world buildings generated their own power, that, the Conquerors did not know how to harness, so the buildings short circuited or exploded from power surges.

He built and owned the first 20 houses on franklin avenue. He built most of the fine houses in hartford whose foundations were stone cut by other of my relatives at the portland quarry.

    You haven’t done your research. Hartford was huge in the 17th century. Hartford extended from Bolton Noch in the East to West of West Hartford and from Windsor to Middletown. But a lot of the histories were absorbed into the towns. William Pitkin was Governor in the 1760’s and we learn about him in East Hartford. During the Revolution the Governor was Trumbull and he had his own office of the Revolution and he and the Pitkins provided much of the gunpowder for Washington. Hartford did serious shrinking land wise as churches were established East of the Connecticut River, and south, north and west of the city. Hartford in the Civil War you had the Colt Armory and the Secretary of the Navy was Gideon Welles from Glastonbury.

    Absolutely Beautiful Photos of Gorgeous Buildings!!! By far most of the buildings in your video, especially the first part of the video, are what's called Tartarian architecture. These buidlings often do look somewhat like Greco-Roman architecture.....however, all of these buildings were built Centuries ago. These buildings are from hundred of years ago. They are built Far Better than the buildings of today. In fact, architects and builders Cannot build them today......we do not have the materials, the skills, or the equipment necessary to build these. You yourself noticed that years go by and the historical record goes blank and then comes back and shows more buildings. No photos exist that record the actual construction of the buildings.....they just show up. The fact is that these buildings were there in the first place....just not shown until years later after each of the "blank" periods.

I also graduated from Hartford High which is the second oldest high school in the U.S. It's so funny but we didn't call Bushnell Park by it's right name growing up. Being Puerto Rican, our parents would just change the name to just about everything 😄 We used to call it "El Parque de Los Indios" translated Indian Park because of the fountain.

    Interesting a lot of people slip over the 1635 Adventurer Party that came from Cambridge, with Stephen Hart, and a couple dozen other freemen. Lots of the early 1700s you had some great expansion to the northwest corner of Connecticut. Lots of Hartford citizens (of notable class) were given property throughout Litchfield county. Some of Stephen Harts family made their way to goshen in 1730s, settled along a beautiful ridge there. Where quite a few generations thrived on those lands. Until the death of Reuben Hart in 1918. Wherein 1919 the Torrington water company, purchased a large majority of it, and it’s been protected ever since!

    Been watching some other videos today, as usual, but suddenly I had an idea, one which has been built on other previous ideas or knowledge but which suddenly I was struck by an epiphany!
    What if we are far older, what if those buildings were buried for centuries, not just decades, what if we are actually in the year 4022 and not 1022 as some postulate or even 2022 but instead we lost 2000 years instead of having 1000 years added?
    That could explain so much, it would explain the missing 1000 years but in a different way.
    I am working on the premise that the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn cannot be the tropics or could have been the tropics for over the past 2000 years, sailors would never have reached their destination, so that would see those Tropics set further in the past than we believe or even know.
    We should have been in the Tropics of Gemini and Sagittarius for the past 2000 years and now moving into the Tropics of Taurus and Scorpio.
    Before the invention of radio and GPS sailors needed to use the constellations to navigate by, but if they were navigating using the wrong constellations then they would have been too far off course.
    So, watching your video I suddenly realised that just perhaps, instead of us believing we lost or had a reset in the 1800s, that those 1800s were further in the past than we imagine, that we had a timeline, but that the timelines have been compressed into 2000 years instead of it being 4000 years.
    I know it sounds crazy, but it is just an idea that formed just now, on 4th January 2022, seeing the beautiful blue dome on that factory made me think that it was so out of place AND out of time, so how could it be out of both, unless we were not in the timeline that we're supposed to be in, that the giants were us but over 4000 years ago or even longer maybe, but definitely we're 2000 years too little.
    Just an idea though, and like all things, I always say we must be as openminded as we are skeptical, sounds like an oxymoron but if we don't stay openminded then we may dismiss something of importance and but if we remain skeptical we can see when we're being fed some kind of fable, it is hard but we must sift through so much rubbish now, that we're are a species out of time AND out of place, maybe thousands of years out place and maybe we can discover the truth before they pull off the next reset?

      I was researching a small Georgia town that had had this same style of beautiful architecture that looked like it would last forever, where (some of) the buildings were torn down and replaced with the most mundane of buildings, with a few smaller ones left standing that most people wouldn't notice. The parasites have been working hard to make sure we don't know our history.

    The antique graveyard you had shown in the video is located on main street next to a Church. My 9th great-grandmother was reported to have been buried there. However, I was unable to find her headstone. Maybel Haynes "Harlakenden" Eaton was married twice. her first marriage was to the Governor of the British Colony of Ct John Haynes and later to the Governor of the New Haven District, Rev Samuel Eaton. She had 6 children and died in the small pox epidemic of New Haven in 1655.

    George Keller designed many of the buildings pictured here, including the Memorial Arch and Hartford Public High School, which was demolished in 1963 (the year of my graduation) to make way for the interstate highway. We thought back then that replacing old buildings was part of being a great city.
