I’m so grateful to be from New Orleans. It’s a city filled with mysteries and old world stories. So much more to uncover about this city that has been erased from our history. Thank you for being one of the first to dive deep into it!
I always found it interesting that when looking at New Orleans from Google Earth, the swamp lands have obvious signs of old roads and city infrastructure - even in older photos when you use the time machine feature.
I noticed the same thing, however, if you look on Google earth from the coast of Maine, to Flordia, through the gulf states to Texas, as well as the west coast, all look like this. Either canals or roads. You'll notice most beaches have the initial area you can go, but directly behind there are "marshes", where when one looks on Google earth they will find 180 degree angles, tons of squares and triangles. Seems like large swaths of the world are quite literally terraformed.
I notice that not only in New Orleans but many many places around the world. There are a couple of Jonn Levi videos where he discusses the street layouts of major neighborhoods that don't exist now but once did. Some of these places may have partially survived while other parts clearly don't exist now but obviously once did. The present day engineers obviously took advantage of the previous street foundations in some of these places.
Yes, Jon Levi does a lot of cruising the empty space with Google Earth, and even out in the remote desert you can see that there is stuff there that's gone now and miles of roads laid out for future buildings ? The Obvious Airports are really cool, can't be anything else.
As a 3rd generation riverboat pilot, the city fascinates me in every way..the alluvial deltas at the Mississippi headwaters, the bayous, the culture of the ppl..the city itself...captures the imagination
New Orleans. I love it. Been 3 times. 2 superbowls and 1 Mardi Gras. Hit a 2500 bux slot on the Flamingo steamboat...saw Patriots win the 1st S.B 4 them...
My home, born and raised, still living there today. Jackson would've stood 0 chance in the war of 1812 had he not the help of Jean Lafitte and really Dominique You his half brother. Andrew Jackson reportedly said that he "would storm the gates of hell with Dominique You" whose gunmen were some of the most accurate and efficient at the time. Great exploration of the city, its true that the bulk of the old world buildings are gone, but the ones that remain do help carry on that old world vibe. I specifically loved the fact you had the Lakefront Airport in this video. I live in the marina thats literally right next to the airport and not only see the building daily also have been inside and all around the whole property on numerous occasions. I remember the first couple times going into it and was just kind of taking aback by its beauty and uniqueness. It still has the old self operated double cage door elevator which is something I make sure to use every chance I can when frequenting the building. I've looked for a few years now but can't seem to find any of he remnants of the old star fort walls but I'm sure there is something left and I've got a few spots still to check. Overall even with the tearing down of many of the old buildings in the city, it still has that aww inspiring vibe you get from being around old world architecture and its one of the things that has kept me here for all these years. I just keep coming back and will always have some of New Orleans within me and vice versa...
Love this! Re: the fires in 1788 and 1794. A building collapsed in 2014 allowing excavation of the lot and they found remnants of the fires. My theory on why the French knew that New Orleans would be a major city was because it already was. Bulbancha was an important place before the Europeans came.
The various forts around the city were built after the Battle of New Orleans in 1815. Designed by the Engineers of the US Army (West Point was primarily an engineering school), getting the logistics to build these was quite simple. The position of the city allowed easy supply by water, from either the Mississippi River or by ship from Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico. Water transport is still the cheapest means of transporting bulk materials, so even if the bricks couldn't have been made locally (they were) getting them there was child's play as opposed to travel by wagon or early railroad. In fact, it was this position near the mouth of the Mississippi that made New Orleans so wealthy (and able to afford all that beautiful architecture). Shipping goods started with the beaver pelt trade and was the reason the French founded the city where they did. If you note, much of the Louisiana Purchase is land drained by rivers that lead to the Mississippi - the primary trade route through middle North America. This holds true today, New Orleans is the largest agricultural port in the US, where barges of grain head down the river and are transshipped onto ocean going ships.
Simple logistics because the bricks form themselves, walk into the boats and then walk off into the perfect position? You are missing several key points of the supply chain by just going with the waterway explanation. What you refer to as child's play is too difficult and expensive to do today with this cool thing, we have now called the highway system that they did not have "officially" in the 1800s.
I was born and raised in Pocatello Idaho. Pocatello high school is an amazing building “built in 1892”. A fire burnt it to the ground in the 1914 and rebuilt in the same footprint. A beautiful castle like building with a green glass dome at the center, where the library is. It also has a huge auditorium with balcony seating. It is a building well worth looking into
Your witty and entertaining sarcasm is absolutely everything sir😂 LOL. Great job on accurately covering our beautiful and historic city. I really hope you do more here. I especially loved the lost buildings segment 💯. Great job. 💯
I’m 72 years old and I grew up in what was called the Uptown Housing projects on St Thomas 1952. I remember mom taking us to the Mardi Gras parades and later as a teenager experiencing the wilder side of the celebration. I joined the Marine Corps in 1970 and I didn’t get a chance to go home during my 30 year career. I’m retired now and I still love the food that can only be found in New Orleans. The fried oyster po’boy, gumbo, jambalaya, and of course red beans and rice!!!! I can cook all of this but just eating it in New Orleans is sublime!!!!!
I spent time in the French Quarter back in '98. I was dissapointed meeting only a handful of french speaker. I sure was impressed to see tall doors everywhere, even in the small wooden houses for common man.
BTW, 99% of the French Quarter's oldest buildings are of Spanish architecture, as the two great fires occurred during the Spanish period. The Old Ursuline Convent is of French architecture and is the oldest building in the entire Mississippi River Valley.
@@melissajohnson2935Cajun French is a dialect. If you spoke it to a Frenchman today, he would have difficulty understanding it. It would be like speaking Middle English to us; try reading Chaucer's original writings and you'll see what I mean.😊
There is nothing more beautiful, unique, and HAUNTING than New Orleans.. 😎 Fun Fact: Everyone thinks the first Italians/Sicilians went to New York (Ellis Island) but the truth is they went to New Orleans (Louisiana)! ...it was cheap, full of work, and all of the land itself reminded the (mainly) Southern Italians of back home...
I used to work in demolition. About 30 years ago the green belts around major UK cities made it very profitable to buy one big old house with a decent sized bit of land with it, pull it down, then build as many homes as could be squeezed onto the space. Whole neighbourhoods would go, one by one unique houses built from brick that was always laid in anything other than stretcher bond, would disappear to be replaced by square blocks of flats (Apartments) with square, flat roofs. People who had slogged their guts out their whole lives so they could live in a nice house in a nice area found themselves living next to multiple families on benefits which would make everyone else sell up. It can only take one bad family to ruin a street but once the decline starts and the area gets known, only the worst will want to move there. So in just 30 years beautiful, unique and very well built houses with hard working and honest owners have gone to be replaced by some who are just unfortunate, but mostly lay abouts, addicts and dealers, living in tiny homes that have no soul and no character. The worst thing is in the last few years I have come to realise that this was all probably by design. For one of the most desirable places to live in the entire world, with decent and respectful neighbours and virtually no crime to crime ridden, filthy and overpopulated by the dregs of society in less than 3 decades. Quite an achievement
I like living in slummy rundown areas , I'm a decent person and don't get in any trouble , I just like the slowpaced familiar nature of neighborly slum relations. The problem is that when you get too many friendly slum dwellers like me, the place gentrifies and you get forced out. That's what's happened to me my whole life uptown NO. my behavior improves the block, 6 years later I can't afford to live there anymore
It’s fine limits now after Katrina but a fantastic documentary about what happened in there in the aftermath. I love my city and there is so much more than the French quarter for those of y’all coming down to dance,eat,create or just hang with local cool cats. Yes it was a walled city . The walls have sunk into the swamp or have been built on top of .My ancestors had a moss plantation and factory.They would collect it from trees,wash it in the river,dry and stuff mattresses. Y’all come eat then dance it off lol. Peace from New Orleans.
Halifax nova Scotia also has a very similar complex of star forts, one in the city and satellites on the outskirts, smaller and all on the coast, or on islands in the harbor.
Finally I found this video and watched it. Been stretching myself too thin on RUclips lately. Apart from your videos, mostly watch health videos, I have some chronic health issues. But seriously, this video does not disappoint at all, with all those gorgeous buildings. I'm starting to become more aware how many have been torn down and out of those still standing, how hard it is to enter most of them and get nice pictures of the interior. So once again, thank you for your hard work.
Lakefront Airport is so magical. It’s my fav old world art deco building. It has a little 50s looking diner & a beautiful the walnut room which is straight out of the 1920s. The fixtures like the chandelier & stair banister are the epitome of art deco. Some things have changed like muriels & the air tower has seen better days but for the most part, it’s stunning, the outside statues built into the facade are in amazing shape.
That Cotton expo building...Frigging wow! To explain its big really doesn't do it justice, so I compared its 33acre size, it could fit 18.7 professional soccer fields inside. Each field being 345' x 222'. New Orleans historical has great photos of this building for future reference, which makes Versailles palace look meh😊
This narrator is so….confident. Can tell he’s curious to learn things but clearly just doesn’t want to believe what he can find out historically? He seems to really doubt that buildings catch fire? What? He seemed to doubt that French colonists were inspired by churches from France? Like…what why is that unbelievable? He try’s to cast doubts on ‘official’ histories the whole video but just comes across sounding nutty. ‘New Orleans French Catholic heritage - as we’re told’ He keeps saying things and implying that it’s not true without offering any alternative explanation? What is he getting at. The history is interesting but it just seems like he’s decided that it’s not cool enough, but there’s no real alternative narrative that he can point to? Very confusing video but an entertaining peak into somebody’s head I guess.
Exactly what I was thinking. Highly entertaining but utter nonsense. Acting like Star Forts are from a previous civilization? What in the hell? That is literally our civilization! I’m so confused what he’s taking about. Like he’s created this entire alternative history narrative based on… nothing?
@@flouserschird This is exactly what I was thought. Look at his channel he thinks that neo-gothic and other buildings which we have records for were actually built by a lost civilization. It's such nonsense. Idk how you don't believe large wooden cities in the swamp never caught fire.
12:27 ... My husband says that according to the flags displayed, having no fringes, means they represent the republic. Since the current government no longer operates as a republic, they may not be allowed to use the old world buildings according to the building's Trust Documents. Also, notice all the new buildings are represented with fringed flags. We just found your page. So much info to take in. Thanks for your works. 💯🏆🏹🎯
?? I have never heard that theory about the significance of fringes. It might be an old practice, applying to old flags, and there are no 150 year old flags on flagpoles. Those are in museums. With a flag made today, if it’s made of a satiny material with a rich gold fringe it does signal something. That it is an EXPENSIVE flag, suitable for the Governor’s office.
It would be pointing to true north as used in Nautical charts. The airport was the original main airport for the city, later being unable to keep up with the amount of traffic they built a bigger one the Louis Armstrong in Metarie. Due to the airport' s position on the south shore of Lake Pontchartrain it's always had a nautical vibe for sure. It is still operational today but not for a lot of commercial flights, mostly smaller planes with pilots working on specific certifications on different planes. I've seen large planes land there including c130s and a vast array of military aircraft as well as mid sized passenger planes. It has a lighthouse style beacon in the front courtyard that is known all around due to its use by the local watercraft, myself included on many a dark foggy night.
I'm from Galvez, just south of Baton Rouge. I spend a lot of time in New Orleans. Beautiful city. Galves itself has hundreds of years of history. But nothing like Nola.
I live in new orleans and this is one of the best videos ever, really enjoy your work...my cousin and I have done alot of research as well...I truly believe the st Louis cathedral is approximately 1k years old. And some of the buildings that were shown in your videos that don't exist anymore were pribly around the same time period...these old world buildings were there hundreds of years before photos, drawings, records etc...there are a few cool buildings still in the city that were not on video as well that deserve some recognition...this was really awesome...we have been to the star forts as well...they are very old probly at least 1k years old as well
@VickieVale367 there are drawings and paintings of the cathedral already present in early 1700's...and it was at minimum at least 300 to 600 years old already..these tartarian structures are are way older than most people care to realize...I honestly believe that most of these tartarian structures in these videos are 600 to 1k years old...there are buildings in New York, Chicago, Buffalo, Utah...and many more places across the country that are hundreds upon hundreds of years old
@@robertrichard3879 thank you for this info. I am just began my journey down the tartarian rabbit hole and didn’t realize we had these structures in my own “backyard”. I am intrigued by ancient civilizations and was astounded by the info regarding the LSU mounds and the submerged ancient granite stones found right off coast! I hope that someone at the Cathedral will be familiar with its history next time my daughters and I visit.
Its really cool how you articulated about education and the role of the building to inspire those within it. Also deeply notable how being educated was about forming your own thoughts and not instead being taught what to think. That aside the colors they chose missed an opportunity to recapture the charm and character of the original building and architectural style. @15:00
It is very much by design it would seem. Classical education was all about how to think not what to think. At least that is how it was in whatever original land I came from. :)
There is an abandoned “highway” tunnel under Harrahs Casino. Might be star fort remnant, similar to the I-10 tunnel in Mobile where the entrance goes through a star fort. Many other tunnel/fort connections. Great video thanks!
It’s not a fort remnant. In the 1960s there was a plan to build an elevated expressway roughly along Decatur Street, between the French Quarter and the river. This was insane, and would have prevented much of the tourism the city now depends on. There was a huge, years long effort by preservationists to get the expressway canceled and the effort succeeded, one of the few cases where people fought City Hall and won. The tunnel was part of this plan, and it was to take traffic underneath the Central Business District then up to connect with the expressway. When the expressway was canceled, the tunnel had no further purpose, and was abandoned.
What an excellent video! 👏👏💯 I live 3 hrs away from N.O. Need to check it out sometime. The old cemeteries have always fascinated me, since reading Anne Rice novels in Middle School. If you follow the Gulf down the coast you'll find several scatterings of GPFS's ... including Fort Pickens, which is right down the road from where I live and work. There's definitely a distinct feeling when exploring inside these structures. What was really going on along the Gulf of Mexico so long ago?
N.O. seems to be a pocket or enclave that survived certain effects of the Reset. If you want something you can check that is mind bending, examine the concrete material on the GPFS you come across. Then compare that with more "modern" examples. Touch and knock on it to get an idea for the exact properties. The differences are quite substantial.
new orleasn was the greatest city in america in the 1800s. more itialian and irish went through nola than nyc. hence the irish channel. st charles ave. has the largest homes ive ever seen. bigger than anywhere.
Just the fact that there are so many old Oak Trees that are arranged in rows along infrastructure says the city is way older than just a few hundred years. There are Oak Trees that are said to be over 900 years old, although a bigger majority of them are around 6 to 700 years old.
The native American culture that lived here in Louisiana, planted and tended those ancient live oaks before the white man came. And man still continues to cut them down even after knowing their age and their signifiance
@@WelcometothewildI keep wondering what he’s suggesting in this bc it would be interesting to find evidence of some ancient Native city, but I feel like he’s trying to imply that it’s European somehow
What I'm implying is, just like the guy who made the video is saying, is that New Orleans has been here way longer than they tell us. Maybe it wasn't called New Orleans before the Europeans (as we were told, but there were already all kinds of people here, white, black, Asian, Indian, etc) came, but there was definitely infrastructure and also many old world buildings of (what we now call) Greek/Roman/Tartarian architecture. The reason why they say they "founded" a city is because they literally found it. We can't claim to know exactly who built it, but we can say that the mainstream narrative dribble is probably not accurate. I mean, why else would there be 700 year old live oaks planted in perfect rows along some of the streets? Something doesn't add up...
For someone who has done ZERO research you seem to pretend to know a lot. Those oak trees usually don’t live past 300 years. Some of the oldest and best preserved trees are on old plantations throughout the south, and they are about 200 - 250 years old at maximum.
Really fun video. I'm new to your channel, and have only seen a couple videos. I enjoy your thorough dives into the subject matter. Your delivery, insights and sense of humor make it all that much better. Do you work from a prewritten text, or is this all just off the cuff using the photos to guide you?
Most of those buildings you showed with the towers were power plants. The columns had iron bars in them to conduct electricity from the magnets. They were some kind of great reset. I am not sure what happened, but all of a sudden, the people who built those buildings just disappeared. I was looking at the Custom House on Canal Street .How could they have built that in the 1800s with no machines, only horse and buggies, hammers, and chisels?
NOLA is the old world city that i have spent the most time. I fell in love with the place during my first visit. People told me it was a stinky dirty place and i always said only if you are staring at the gutters and smelling the dumpsters. The infrastructure from Canal Street to Jackson Square, the first thing that i saw was the massive size and epic amount of details that was put into these buildings (and this was long before i see things the way i see them now). Back before Katrina it was a great party destination. The vibration of New Orleans isnt like anything i have experienced. I suppose San Francisco and LA are the two other old world cities i have frequented (pre-2020) that have similar but very different vibrations to NOLA. Much of the inherited infrastructure was spared in this city only because its one of the supposed oldest "found"ed cities in America. Im sure it has allot to do with the port at the mouth of the Mississippi which made it much harder to cover up any intentional destruction of these buildings. The trolley system is still fully operational and the cars are suprisingly huge. (off topic) i have seen 3 recent videos of antique-tech around the world (recently) firing off. One of the videos shows the way the spinning of silver mercury in a spere actually creates an electrical charge. So if these globes at the top of the antique-tech contained mercury, im pretty sure if the can produce a charge, they could also broadcast a charge as well. Another thing i found was the cymatics of these giant stained glass windows in these "cathedrals" are what we think they are, basically a cymatic signiature of the BELLS that were installed the bell towers, the demonstration of the cymatics compared to the design of the windows was so perfectly identical it left zero doubt in my mind . Its starting to all fall in line the more that i see. I'll post the links when i go back and find these clips. Thank you for your continued hard work in this community my brother from another mother. 💌✌🙏💣💥
Almost all the capitol buildings look Romanesque in California. Typically 6 pillars 3 and 3. Massive domes I grew up in Sacramento California. Old Sacramento was where my dad worked. Also yeah dude the resemblance of cymatics on cathedrals and star forts as there termed had me sold. The ancestors knew way more then some would be willing to give credit.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 I do appreciate this one for stated reasons, NOLA is definitely my original inspiration for this research and exploration. I have sat many hours at the heart of this city admiring, photographing and painting many of the old world structures there. Jackson Square (right outside the cathedral doors) seemed to be where I felt the most artistic energy. I found the mercury and cymatics clip I was referring to 14:00 mark on this video ruclips.net/video/8xdiEYhMrkc/видео.html
Great video! I will definitely share this with my friend from New Orleans! You mentioned Huey Long in the video and I was wondering if you could cover "Jefferson Franklin Long" in Georgia Congress 1860s through 1870s!
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Awesome! I will be looking forward to that video! You can also add "The Original 33" out of Camilla, Ga! This is another anomaly that doesn't match the narrative told of the Republican Party of the 1800s! Keep up the great work!
If that city hall had a dome it would look just like the pantheon. One similar still stands in downtown Mobile. I think it's part of the museum now. It was the city jail when i was young. Amazing building, so I looked it up and it had very unusual statuary all over the top originally. Supposedly all lost to hurricanes. Female status, all manor of craziness. Well worth a look
Came to New Orleans in '79 and am still here in '23. This was a fantastic video. Glad I watched it. In fact I plan on watching this again later in the week with my parents to get their thoughts. Thanks for the entertainment, make a great day.
The 'star fort' is in the tradition of Vauban, a famous french military architect who worked under Louis the 14th & made these crazy fortresses around France's borders that featured those pointy out-croppings that gave the forts the blueprint of a star.
It should be noted that the 1890 census is, for the most part, missing. They say it was destroyed by flood or fire. I don't remember. Something happened to prevent the taking of the census would be more believable. I've seen 1885 state census info and then 1900, but 1890 is missing both state and federally.
I love Lakefront Airport. It has a good restaurant and I enjoy having lunch there with friends now and then. As for its stunning appearance, remember that when it was built mass transportation was by rail. That’s how ordinary people traveled, then and for many years to come. Only rich people flew commercial, as it was an expensive luxury. Rich people like rich surroundings, and when they designed the airport they knew that, and gave the patrons what they wanted.
The domes are Moorish architecture and definitely are from the old world and older civilizations....I have been studying the old world Tartarians and they say that they are the one's that built these buildings way before European colonization
Concerning the Gazebo you pointed out as part of the world fair - they had very similar structures built here in Australia for the World Fairs that took place here in the same time period - I can only imagine how much technology and produce a less than 100 year old colony would have to display, a definite necessity 😂 The official narrative states they were displays built to represent/revere the local biscuit making companies... Makes tonnes of sense.
Had to be at least 200,0000 people living in the Preamerika considering every city , state , and no name little city moreover , that all building structures have the same super architecture and newly placed people have no clue or expertise or mfg. resources except possibility the clothing , hats and shoes they found or inherited ?
Thats a facts! Look into all of the mass grave sites and uderwater cities and towns all around North America and the picture starts to come together! Seems like mass extermination of a people and these people were not wearing face paint and feathers!
One of the most wild and untamed cities in the US. Gators in the canals, coyotes running around cemeteries, wild boar in City Park. Excellent city to be homeless in if you're good at fishing and identifying fruits and fungus.
Im from New Orleans, several generations back...Im a Corp Flight Attendant and that Airport--Lakefront is an FBO actually, and only for private/corporate jets. So, Ive worked out of it (flew) out of there many times.....They renovated it after Katrina and it was totally modernized and altered and for awhile there were trailers everywhere. I havent been there in about 5 years but, it was really only for Corporate jets and not super busy, so I think thats why it was also rented out.
Right. And I am even more intrigued now about my New Orleans home. Im really into ancestry research and my family hails here from France and Italy and its like why can I not go any further than early 1800's?? So, it appears New Orleans was very much a Tartarian land (obviously) and I live in Mobile part time too, and now Im blown away at a possible tunnel system downtown. A lot of times in bed in the mornings I feel the ground shake, and its always so strange. But one of your viewers here said there are tunnels there. Just mind blowing. Love your videos. Hope you do more on the Orphan trains and our true origins...looks like we were created from underground labs and brought up in the 1800s.....@@Restitutor_Orbis_214
I meant to add City Hall, that building is actually very old inside but super neat. It hasnt changed at all over the years. I go there often for strawman documents. Its an eerie place, but quite nice.
@7:39, yet more trees with no leaves. Almost looks like moss or very short grass on the ground, or that recycled tire stuff you sometimes see in playgrounds(?). I assume they painted the trees to see them easier at night. Trees are probably 80 years old at this point. Electricity everywhere--not sure what year this is. Tracks but I don't look like they are electrical-trolly, as those usually have a 3rd rail up top. @ --8:12-- not any kind of grass I'm familiar with. Looks a bit like moss or chewed up dirt. Not bladed grass that was cut. --8:32-- "Anaheim?" "Ahhnaio" on each side of the sign? @ --10:00-- looks like turntables (curved concrete in floor) in the fort. @ --22:25-- I would love to ask a gal to dance in a swanky place like this. @ --27:06-- world's fair has the look of something where people needed to be introduced to what was around in the newly acquired/discovered lands. Gazibo thing -- energy generator??? @33:00 - Mosque turned general store. @ 34:57 One living tree, rest appears dead.
Can you do Mephis Tennessee next , or Chicago or even at. Louis. Their is definitely a connection between popular “black” towns or cities, and the unknown history of certain places, like many towns in Georgia
hello again another fantastic video thanks! my thoughts about the pediments on some buildings are just blank....I think the blank ones have had their sculptures removed possibly due to unexplainable content.....most pediments are filled with a bunch of sculpture and some totally blank....hmmm
hopefully you have all of your content backed up on external hard drives etc.....you and many content creators have compiled an amazing collection of images and things that certain groups would be very happy to see just go away.....and I think they are doing the best they can to scrub these things out.....1 targeted attack against your computers would wipe out so much that needs to be saved.....I was also thinking about crowd funding or something to pay to have all of these images printed on high quality stock to last in the event of power loss..... harder for them to wipe out the actual paper.... thoughts?
How'd they even do those pictures of New Orleans from above? I assume there's not some MASSIVE mountain there an artist with AMAZING eyesight was sitting on?
Dude have you ever ever worked in construction? You would understand how easy these things are to build with experience and sweat I live here and there's nothing unusual about the architecture you give a group of experienced workers a few yrs to build something you understand how gd highly skilled workers are and how easy it is to do go outside and start building something every day and in 5yrs you'll change your mind you'll learn how to use chain falls and pullies the 1st time you pick up 2500-3000 lbs by yourself with just a chain fall the light will go off in your head. Get outside and get your hands dirty
What you are implying is, frankly, nonsense. It was indeed literally a swamp before the French and Spanish created its beautiful colonial buildings. The star-shaped fort around it was made of wood, which is why there are no traces of it now. And yes, the artists' renderings are often not accurate. New Orleans was once the richest city in the U.S. due to cotton, sugar, and steamships, so why is it hard to imagine that so many beautiful, old-world or European-style buildings were constructed, especially since there were so many Europeans still there? There are many historical records that prove all this, such as newspapers, public records, and diaries of all this construction, so it's hilarious to think otherwise.
You should check out the new Russian military cathedral recently built outside Moscow. It shows that people can still build massive and epic structures if there is a desire to do so.
i grew up in awe of all the school buildings. i had friends that went to McMain. it always amazed me how they NEVER ONCE washed that building. it seemed intentional as if everthing was clean but mcmain. shame.
Orleans is pronounced ORLEENZ when used alone - as in ORLEENZ Parish or ORLEENZ Public Library. You will still hear plenty of multi-genrational locals call New Orleans - New Or - Lee - Uns. You will almost never hear anyone locally say New Or - Leens when referring to the city.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Not correcting you - adding to the discussion. I thought you and your viewers may like to know about the nuances that exist in the community. I thought it added another dimension to your video - one I enjoyed very much. Apologies if I wrote my comment in an insensitive way.
You know, in all of these giant beautiful cities, laid out in all of their perfection, I would bet you dimes to doughnuts that just about every square inch that was not bricked and or concrete for getting around, it would have been a great and beautiful garden. And yet, it looks like every blade of grass has been destroyed, completely. Did the " all powerful Mudd Flood " wipe these places clean ? You'd think that the big old growth trees would have survived. And yet it looks stripped, devoid of anything green. Some of the birds eye view pictures seem to show plenty of greenery. Just seems weird.
The two hemi circular star forts that abut Lake Pontchartrain would have been outfitted with cannons to attack ships that were attempting to enter port during a siege. But of course their locations are not dissimilar to lighthouses or towers that would have abut similar port styling in older civilizations. Basically if you have a city that is on a lake or port or near a river that can be defended with a "gate" or defenses then it probably should be.
How do these “great fires “ start? Someone left a burner on in the kitchen while cooking beans ? Definitely those fires are direct energy weapons in my opinion.
I believe the Star Forts were ancient battery powering stations. I live in the Detroit area &:you can clearly see from the aerial photos of Old Fort Detroit, I mean the Detroit International exposition which was in the 1890s, you can see how the star fort was directly connected to the larger Fort. Detroit did not have a world's fair but instead we had a world's International exhibition which ran for 6 years, I believe from 1889 till 1895 when it was allegedly torn down. Now that area today is a heavily polluted & industrialized area called Zug Island. The star fort is preserved but its impossible to get down there because they are building a new bridge to Canada, I wonder what that's all about....😅
I’m so grateful to be from New Orleans. It’s a city filled with mysteries and old world stories. So much more to uncover about this city that has been erased from our history. Thank you for being one of the first to dive deep into it!
WORST GODDAMN CITY IVE EVER SEEN! I kid you not Gary, Indiana or Detroit is better!
❤ Same. I'm from Downtown. As a N.O. Native I love it! This is on par with a book that I read called the Beautiful Crescent 🌙
Can you tell us some old world stories?
@@banke8480 Lol. Old World 😅 Meaning before Beinville or before Katrina? It really is a unique Place.
Born here too. Best city in the world :)@@boogitybear2283
I always found it interesting that when looking at New Orleans from Google Earth, the swamp lands have obvious signs of old roads and city infrastructure - even in older photos when you use the time machine feature.
I noticed the same thing, however, if you look on Google earth from the coast of Maine, to Flordia, through the gulf states to Texas, as well as the west coast, all look like this. Either canals or roads. You'll notice most beaches have the initial area you can go, but directly behind there are "marshes", where when one looks on Google earth they will find 180 degree angles, tons of squares and triangles. Seems like large swaths of the world are quite literally terraformed.
I notice that not only in New Orleans but many many places around the world. There are a couple of Jonn Levi videos where he discusses the street layouts of major neighborhoods that don't exist now but once did. Some of these places may have partially survived while other parts clearly don't exist now but obviously once did. The present day engineers obviously took advantage of the previous street foundations in some of these places.
I wonder what a LIDAR scan could show. The lidar technology he has already shown so much.
Yes, Jon Levi does a lot of cruising the empty space with Google Earth, and even out in the remote desert you can see that there is stuff there that's gone now and miles of roads laid out for future buildings ? The Obvious Airports are really cool, can't be anything else.
amazing video!! i learned a lot❤
Finally, someone does an old world, New Orleans, my hometown. I grew up amidst the last worlds fair in the last old world city... much love...
As a 3rd generation riverboat pilot, the city fascinates me in every way..the alluvial deltas at the Mississippi headwaters, the bayous, the culture of the ppl..the city itself...captures the imagination
New Orleans. I love it. Been 3 times. 2 superbowls and 1 Mardi Gras. Hit a 2500 bux slot on the Flamingo steamboat...saw Patriots win the 1st S.B 4 them...
Nola has a very interesting aurora. You can feel the history in the air, it’s palpable. You have to visit to understand. I love visiting
My home, born and raised, still living there today. Jackson would've stood 0 chance in the war of 1812 had he not the help of Jean Lafitte and really Dominique You his half brother. Andrew Jackson reportedly said that he "would storm the gates of hell with Dominique You" whose gunmen were some of the most accurate and efficient at the time. Great exploration of the city, its true that the bulk of the old world buildings are gone, but the ones that remain do help carry on that old world vibe. I specifically loved the fact you had the Lakefront Airport in this video. I live in the marina thats literally right next to the airport and not only see the building daily also have been inside and all around the whole property on numerous occasions. I remember the first couple times going into it and was just kind of taking aback by its beauty and uniqueness. It still has the old self operated double cage door elevator which is something I make sure to use every chance I can when frequenting the building. I've looked for a few years now but can't seem to find any of he remnants of the old star fort walls but I'm sure there is something left and I've got a few spots still to check. Overall even with the tearing down of many of the old buildings in the city, it still has that aww inspiring vibe you get from being around old world architecture and its one of the things that has kept me here for all these years. I just keep coming back and will always have some of New Orleans within me and vice versa...
Love this! Re: the fires in 1788 and 1794. A building collapsed in 2014 allowing excavation of the lot and they found remnants of the fires. My theory on why the French knew that New Orleans would be a major city was because it already was. Bulbancha was an important place before the Europeans came.
The various forts around the city were built after the Battle of New Orleans in 1815. Designed by the Engineers of the US Army (West Point was primarily an engineering school), getting the logistics to build these was quite simple. The position of the city allowed easy supply by water, from either the Mississippi River or by ship from Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico. Water transport is still the cheapest means of transporting bulk materials, so even if the bricks couldn't have been made locally (they were) getting them there was child's play as opposed to travel by wagon or early railroad.
In fact, it was this position near the mouth of the Mississippi that made New Orleans so wealthy (and able to afford all that beautiful architecture). Shipping goods started with the beaver pelt trade and was the reason the French founded the city where they did. If you note, much of the Louisiana Purchase is land drained by rivers that lead to the Mississippi - the primary trade route through middle North America. This holds true today, New Orleans is the largest agricultural port in the US, where barges of grain head down the river and are transshipped onto ocean going ships.
Simple logistics because the bricks form themselves, walk into the boats and then walk off into the perfect position? You are missing several key points of the supply chain by just going with the waterway explanation. What you refer to as child's play is too difficult and expensive to do today with this cool thing, we have now called the highway system that they did not have "officially" in the 1800s.
I genuinely enjoy everything you do and look forward to new videos thank you so much
My pleasure and thank you!
Last Old World City - (Mobile,Alabama) Est.1702 Capital of the French Louisianas
They tore up a lot of it in the early 1900s too.
New Orleans is a city of my heart. My maternal family were some of the first families to settle in New Orleans and other surrounding areas
All over everywhere in USA even in middle of deserts
Mine were too! Whats the surnames? For me, its Beauregard, DeLesseps and Avegno primarily.
I was born and raised in Pocatello Idaho. Pocatello high school is an amazing building “built in 1892”. A fire burnt it to the ground in the 1914 and rebuilt in the same footprint. A beautiful castle like building with a green glass dome at the center, where the library is. It also has a huge auditorium with balcony seating. It is a building well worth looking into
Your witty and entertaining sarcasm is absolutely everything sir😂 LOL.
Great job on accurately covering our beautiful and historic city.
I really hope you do more here. I especially loved the lost buildings segment 💯. Great job. 💯
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m 72 years old and I grew up in what was called the Uptown Housing projects on St Thomas 1952. I remember mom taking us to the Mardi Gras parades and later as a teenager experiencing the wilder side of the celebration.
I joined the Marine Corps in 1970 and I didn’t get a chance to go home during my 30 year career.
I’m retired now and I still love the food that can only be found in New Orleans. The fried oyster po’boy, gumbo, jambalaya, and of course red beans and rice!!!! I can cook all of this but just eating it in New Orleans is sublime!!!!!
I spent time in the French Quarter back in '98. I was dissapointed meeting only a handful of french speaker. I sure was impressed to see tall doors everywhere, even in the small wooden houses for common man.
New Orleans is the wrong area for French speakers. You need to go west of New Orleans in the Lafayette area to find the French Cajuns.
You need to go to the river parishes or Acadia
@@melissajohnson2935

BTW, 99% of the French Quarter's oldest buildings are of Spanish architecture, as the two great fires occurred during the Spanish period.
The Old Ursuline Convent is of French architecture and is the oldest building in the entire Mississippi River Valley.

There is nothing more beautiful, unique, and HAUNTING than New Orleans.. 😎
Fun Fact: Everyone thinks the first Italians/Sicilians went to New York (Ellis Island) but the truth is they went to New Orleans (Louisiana)! ...it was cheap, full of work, and all of the land itself reminded the (mainly) Southern Italians of back home...
Yes my family is Italian, French, Spanish and African American from New Orleans. It's a melting pot for sure
Another great vid
Glad you enjoyed it!
I used to work in demolition. About 30 years ago the green belts around major UK cities made it very profitable to buy one big old house with a decent sized bit of land with it, pull it down, then build as many homes as could be squeezed onto the space. Whole neighbourhoods would go, one by one unique houses built from brick that was always laid in anything other than stretcher bond, would disappear to be replaced by square blocks of flats (Apartments) with square, flat roofs. People who had slogged their guts out their whole lives so they could live in a nice house in a nice area found themselves living next to multiple families on benefits which would make everyone else sell up. It can only take one bad family to ruin a street but once the decline starts and the area gets known, only the worst will want to move there. So in just 30 years beautiful, unique and very well built houses with hard working and honest owners have gone to be replaced by some who are just unfortunate, but mostly lay abouts, addicts and dealers, living in tiny homes that have no soul and no character. The worst thing is in the last few years I have come to realise that this was all probably by design. For one of the most desirable places to live in the entire world, with decent and respectful neighbours and virtually no crime to crime ridden, filthy and overpopulated by the dregs of society in less than 3 decades. Quite an achievement
This is exactly what happened all over America. They're tract homes called Suburbs now gated communities initiated after WW2 .
Welcome to Satan’s little season - revelation 20.
I like living in slummy rundown areas , I'm a decent person and don't get in any trouble , I just like the slowpaced familiar nature of neighborly slum relations. The problem is that when you get too many friendly slum dwellers like me, the place gentrifies and you get forced out. That's what's happened to me my whole life uptown NO. my behavior improves the block, 6 years later I can't afford to live there anymore
damn. so sad.

That seems extremely accurate
You should check out Charity hospital in New Orleans.
Nu Awlins
It is tabbed as a full video.
It’s fine limits now after Katrina but a fantastic documentary about what happened in there in the aftermath. I love my city and there is so much more than the French quarter for those of y’all coming down to dance,eat,create or just hang with local cool cats. Yes it was a walled city . The walls have sunk into the swamp or have been built on top of .My ancestors had a moss plantation and factory.They would collect it from trees,wash it in the river,dry and stuff mattresses. Y’all come eat then dance it off lol. Peace from New Orleans.
Halifax nova Scotia also has a very similar complex of star forts, one in the city and satellites on the outskirts, smaller and all on the coast, or on islands in the harbor.
Finally I found this video and watched it. Been stretching myself too thin on RUclips lately. Apart from your videos, mostly watch health videos, I have some chronic health issues. But seriously, this video does not disappoint at all, with all those gorgeous buildings. I'm starting to become more aware how many have been torn down and out of those still standing, how hard it is to enter most of them and get nice pictures of the interior. So once again, thank you for your hard work.
You are most welcome my friend glad you enjoyed it.
Lakefront Airport is so magical. It’s my fav old world art deco building. It has a little 50s looking diner & a beautiful the walnut room which is straight out of the 1920s. The fixtures like the chandelier & stair banister are the epitome of art deco. Some things have changed like muriels & the air tower has seen better days but for the most part, it’s stunning, the outside statues built into the facade are in amazing shape.
I LOVE the nod to The Buccaneer...one of my favorite movies. Nice commentary.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I can't stop laughing with the Christopher Lambert cameo, then it gets outdone by Dennis Franz!
Lucius is low-key a comedian...he's funny tho😅
That Cotton expo building...Frigging wow! To explain its big really doesn't do it justice, so I compared its 33acre size, it could fit 18.7 professional soccer fields inside. Each field being 345' x 222'. New Orleans historical has great photos of this building for future reference, which makes Versailles palace look meh😊
Great builds I can get you in the building on Saturdays and Sundays
This narrator is so….confident. Can tell he’s curious to learn things but clearly just doesn’t want to believe what he can find out historically?
He seems to really doubt that buildings catch fire? What?
He seemed to doubt that French colonists were inspired by churches from France? Like…what why is that unbelievable?
He try’s to cast doubts on ‘official’ histories the whole video but just comes across sounding nutty.
‘New Orleans French Catholic heritage - as we’re told’
He keeps saying things and implying that it’s not true without offering any alternative explanation? What is he getting at.
The history is interesting but it just seems like he’s decided that it’s not cool enough, but there’s no real alternative narrative that he can point to? Very confusing video but an entertaining peak into somebody’s head I guess.
Exactly what I was thinking. Highly entertaining but utter nonsense. Acting like Star Forts are from a previous civilization? What in the hell? That is literally our civilization! I’m so confused what he’s taking about. Like he’s created this entire alternative history narrative based on… nothing?
@@flouserschird This is exactly what I was thought. Look at his channel he thinks that neo-gothic and other buildings which we have records for were actually built by a lost civilization. It's such nonsense. Idk how you don't believe large wooden cities in the swamp never caught fire.
12:27 ... My husband says that according to the flags displayed, having no fringes, means they represent the republic. Since the current government no longer operates as a republic, they may not be allowed to use the old world buildings according to the building's Trust Documents.
Also, notice all the new buildings are represented with fringed flags.
We just found your page. So much info to take in. Thanks for your works. 💯🏆🏹🎯
Fringed flag buildings vs. Non fringed may be an interesting topic.
Fringes represents the crowns jurisdiction over the USA
?? I have never heard that theory about the significance of fringes. It might be an old practice, applying to old flags, and there are no 150 year old flags on flagpoles. Those are in museums. With a flag made today, if it’s made of a satiny material with a rich gold fringe it does signal something. That it is an EXPENSIVE flag, suitable for the Governor’s office.
The Nautical Star on the floor of the airport is not symmetrically oriented to the building.
It would be pointing to true north as used in Nautical charts. The airport was the original main airport for the city, later being unable to keep up with the amount of traffic they built a bigger one the Louis Armstrong in Metarie. Due to the airport' s position on the south shore of Lake Pontchartrain it's always had a nautical vibe for sure. It is still operational today but not for a lot of commercial flights, mostly smaller planes with pilots working on specific certifications on different planes. I've seen large planes land there including c130s and a vast array of military aircraft as well as mid sized passenger planes. It has a lighthouse style beacon in the front courtyard that is known all around due to its use by the local watercraft, myself included on many a dark foggy night.
@@detectivelifem.d.3537 Most informative comment reply ever.
I'm from Galvez, just south of Baton Rouge. I spend a lot of time in New Orleans. Beautiful city. Galves itself has hundreds of years of history. But nothing like Nola.
I live in new orleans and this is one of the best videos ever, really enjoy your work...my cousin and I have done alot of research as well...I truly believe the st Louis cathedral is approximately 1k years old. And some of the buildings that were shown in your videos that don't exist anymore were pribly around the same time period...these old world buildings were there hundreds of years before photos, drawings, records etc...there are a few cool buildings still in the city that were not on video as well that deserve some recognition...this was really awesome...we have been to the star forts as well...they are very old probly at least 1k years old as well
nobody but natives were in new orleans in the year 1023 but i'd think 4 to 500 years is more reasonable
@@indivivdualismthe idea of all this is that idea is challenged
Interesting. What leads you to the 1k years? I’ve visited the cathedral often and I will ask some questions next time I go.
@VickieVale367 there are drawings and paintings of the cathedral already present in early 1700's...and it was at minimum at least 300 to 600 years old already..these tartarian structures are are way older than most people care to realize...I honestly believe that most of these tartarian structures in these videos are 600 to 1k years old...there are buildings in New York, Chicago, Buffalo, Utah...and many more places across the country that are hundreds upon hundreds of years old
@@robertrichard3879 thank you for this info. I am just began my journey down the tartarian rabbit hole and didn’t realize we had these structures in my own “backyard”. I am intrigued by ancient civilizations and was astounded by the info regarding the LSU mounds and the submerged ancient granite stones found right off coast! I hope that someone at the Cathedral will be familiar with its history next time my daughters and I visit.
Don't get me wrong , I luv my roots but after leaving New Orleans in 1978, I have no regrets leaving it behind .
Its really cool how you articulated about education and the role of the building to inspire those within it. Also deeply notable how being educated was about forming your own thoughts and not instead being taught what to think. That aside the colors they chose missed an opportunity to recapture the charm and character of the original building and architectural style. @15:00
It is very much by design it would seem. Classical education was all about how to think not what to think. At least that is how it was in whatever original land I came from. :)
im from nola glad to see this.been waiting for someone to cover it
There is an abandoned “highway” tunnel under Harrahs Casino. Might be star fort remnant, similar to the I-10 tunnel in Mobile where the entrance goes through a star fort. Many other tunnel/fort connections. Great video thanks!
Thanks for sharing!
Have you seen it? Or been down there? Entry location?

ruclips.net/video/n9pkhrUlWbc/видео.htmlsi=54OJlYdpZHXfsWHZ
It’s not a fort remnant. In the 1960s there was a plan to build an elevated expressway roughly along Decatur Street, between the French Quarter and the river. This was insane, and would have prevented much of the tourism the city now depends on. There was a huge, years long effort by preservationists to get the expressway canceled and the effort succeeded, one of the few cases where people fought City Hall and won. The tunnel was part of this plan, and it was to take traffic underneath the Central Business District then up to connect with the expressway. When the expressway was canceled, the tunnel had no further purpose, and was abandoned.
What an excellent video! 👏👏💯 I live 3 hrs away from N.O. Need to check it out sometime. The old cemeteries have always fascinated me, since reading Anne Rice novels in Middle School. If you follow the Gulf down the coast you'll find several scatterings of GPFS's ... including Fort Pickens, which is right down the road from where I live and work. There's definitely a distinct feeling when exploring inside these structures. What was really going on along the Gulf of Mexico so long ago?
N.O. seems to be a pocket or enclave that survived certain effects of the Reset. If you want something you can check that is mind bending, examine the concrete material on the GPFS you come across. Then compare that with more "modern" examples. Touch and knock on it to get an idea for the exact properties. The differences are quite substantial.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Welp.... I know what I'm doing on my next days off. 👀

Great Video!
new orleasn was the greatest city in america in the 1800s. more itialian and irish went through nola than nyc. hence the irish channel. st charles ave. has the largest homes ive ever seen. bigger than anywhere.
Just the fact that there are so many old Oak Trees that are arranged in rows along infrastructure says the city is way older than just a few hundred years. There are Oak Trees that are said to be over 900 years old, although a bigger majority of them are around 6 to 700 years old.
The native American culture that lived here in Louisiana, planted and tended those ancient live oaks before the white man came. And man still continues to cut them down even after knowing their age and their signifiance
@@WelcometothewildI keep wondering what he’s suggesting in this bc it would be interesting to find evidence of some ancient Native city, but I feel like he’s trying to imply that it’s European somehow
What I'm implying is, just like the guy who made the video is saying, is that New Orleans has been here way longer than they tell us. Maybe it wasn't called New Orleans before the Europeans (as we were told, but there were already all kinds of people here, white, black, Asian, Indian, etc) came, but there was definitely infrastructure and also many old world buildings of (what we now call) Greek/Roman/Tartarian architecture. The reason why they say they "founded" a city is because they literally found it. We can't claim to know exactly who built it, but we can say that the mainstream narrative dribble is probably not accurate. I mean, why else would there be 700 year old live oaks planted in perfect rows along some of the streets? Something doesn't add up...
@@Welcometothewild more than just native American people were in North America way before the settlers as we know it
For someone who has done ZERO research you seem to pretend to know a lot.
Those oak trees usually don’t live past 300 years. Some of the oldest and best preserved trees are on old plantations throughout the south, and they are about 200 - 250 years old at maximum.
Really fun video. I'm new to your channel, and have only seen a couple videos. I enjoy your thorough dives into the subject matter. Your delivery, insights and sense of humor make it all that much better. Do you work from a prewritten text, or is this all just off the cuff using the photos to guide you?
If you notice the first picture of New Orleans looks like a drawing. Who was the artist that drew painstaking details like that? amazing!
There always seemed to be many individuals with talent and time on their hands for those depictions. :)
Most of those buildings you showed with the towers were power plants. The columns had iron bars in them to conduct electricity from the magnets. They were some kind of great reset. I am not sure what happened, but all of a sudden, the people who built those buildings just disappeared. I was looking at the Custom House on Canal Street .How could they have built that in the 1800s with no machines, only horse and buggies, hammers, and chisels?
NOLA is the old world city that i have spent the most time. I fell in love with the place during my first visit. People told me it was a stinky dirty place and i always said only if you are staring at the gutters and smelling the dumpsters. The infrastructure from Canal Street to Jackson Square, the first thing that i saw was the massive size and epic amount of details that was put into these buildings (and this was long before i see things the way i see them now). Back before Katrina it was a great party destination. The vibration of New Orleans isnt like anything i have experienced. I suppose San Francisco and LA are the two other old world cities i have frequented (pre-2020) that have similar but very different vibrations to NOLA. Much of the inherited infrastructure was spared in this city only because its one of the supposed oldest "found"ed cities in America. Im sure it has allot to do with the port at the mouth of the Mississippi which made it much harder to cover up any intentional destruction of these buildings. The trolley system is still fully operational and the cars are suprisingly huge.
(off topic) i have seen 3 recent videos of antique-tech around the world (recently) firing off. One of the videos shows the way the spinning of silver mercury in a spere actually creates an electrical charge. So if these globes at the top of the antique-tech contained mercury, im pretty sure if the can produce a charge, they could also broadcast a charge as well. Another thing i found was the cymatics of these giant stained glass windows in these "cathedrals" are what we think they are, basically a cymatic signiature of the BELLS that were installed the bell towers, the demonstration of the cymatics compared to the design of the windows was so perfectly identical it left zero doubt in my mind . Its starting to all fall in line the more that i see. I'll post the links when i go back and find these clips.
Thank you for your continued hard work in this community my brother from another mother. 💌✌🙏💣💥
My pleasure my brother, I had you in mind when I assembled this one.
Almost all the capitol buildings look Romanesque in California. Typically 6 pillars 3 and 3. Massive domes
I grew up in Sacramento California. Old Sacramento was where my dad worked.
Also yeah dude the resemblance of cymatics on cathedrals and star forts as there termed had me sold. The ancestors knew way more then some would be willing to give credit.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 I do appreciate this one for stated reasons, NOLA is definitely my original inspiration for this research and exploration. I have sat many hours at the heart of this city admiring, photographing and painting many of the old world structures there.

If that city hall had a dome it would look just like the pantheon. One similar still stands in downtown Mobile. I think it's part of the museum now. It was the city jail when i was young. Amazing building, so I looked it up and it had very unusual statuary all over the top originally. Supposedly all lost to hurricanes. Female status, all manor of craziness. Well worth a look

Came to New Orleans in '79 and am still here in '23. This was a fantastic video. Glad I watched it. In fact I plan on watching this again later in the week with my parents to get their thoughts. Thanks for the entertainment, make a great day.
The 'star fort' is in the tradition of Vauban, a famous french military architect who worked under Louis the 14th & made these crazy fortresses around France's borders that featured those pointy out-croppings that gave the forts the blueprint of a star.
It seems to have been exported quite effectively, they even built one in Japan. :)
Can you do a video on Nachitoches, Louisiana? Nachitoches is the older French town of Louisiana. Love your videos 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🏆🏆🏆

Love the sarcasm!! And indeed, would love to stay at that hotel, Why isn't there a pool?
Anyway, there was a fire 🙂 Great content !!
It should be noted that the 1890 census is, for the most part, missing. They say it was destroyed by flood or fire. I don't remember. Something happened to prevent the taking of the census would be more believable. I've seen 1885 state census info and then 1900, but 1890 is missing both state and federally.
It gets even more crazy when you look into the so-called legitimate data from the census data in the early 20th Century.
the thing i found funny there is the people even considered fellow Americans as foreigners
Much Love from Franconia. :)
I love Lakefront Airport. It has a good restaurant and I enjoy having lunch there with friends now and then. As for its stunning appearance, remember that when it was built mass transportation was by rail. That’s how ordinary people traveled, then and for many years to come. Only rich people flew commercial, as it was an expensive luxury. Rich people like rich surroundings, and when they designed the airport they knew that, and gave the patrons what they wanted.
They have special terminals for rich people now that do not compare to Lakefront.
The domes are Moorish architecture and definitely are from the old world and older civilizations....I have been studying the old world Tartarians and they say that they are the one's that built these buildings way before European colonization
Check out the "Silk Road" video and please comment on what is seen there.
Haha that airport! Perfect place to exchange vows over the sounds of jet engines. The old airships were quiet.
Concerning the Gazebo you pointed out as part of the world fair - they had very similar structures built here in Australia for the World Fairs that took place here in the same time period - I can only imagine how much technology and produce a less than 100 year old colony would have to display, a definite necessity 😂
The official narrative states they were displays built to represent/revere the local biscuit making companies... Makes tonnes of sense.
Biscuits, pork, napkins everyone sure loved their little items back then. Where was this focus on toilet paper recently?
Every Australian state had these Masonic building, hundreds of them. Even smaller country towns.
Had to be at least 200,0000 people living in the Preamerika considering every city , state , and no name little city moreover , that all building structures have the same super architecture and newly placed people have no clue or expertise or mfg. resources except possibility the clothing , hats and shoes they found or inherited ?
Thats a facts! Look into all of the mass grave sites and uderwater cities and towns all around North America and the picture starts to come together! Seems like mass extermination of a people and these people were not wearing face paint and feathers!
What TF are you talking about
Look up "Queen Khalifa" that California is named after. It will show you how much of the world she controlled.
One of the most wild and untamed cities in the US. Gators in the canals, coyotes running around cemeteries, wild boar in City Park. Excellent city to be homeless in if you're good at fishing and identifying fruits and fungus.
Im from New Orleans, several generations back...Im a Corp Flight Attendant and that Airport--Lakefront is an FBO actually, and only for private/corporate jets. So, Ive worked out of it (flew) out of there many times.....They renovated it after Katrina and it was totally modernized and altered and for awhile there were trailers everywhere. I havent been there in about 5 years but, it was really only for Corporate jets and not super busy, so I think thats why it was also rented out.
Why am I not remotely surprised? It always seems to be somehow an exclusive access to certain locations.
Right. And I am even more intrigued now about my New Orleans home. Im really into ancestry research and my family hails here from France and Italy and its like why can I not go any further than early 1800's?? So, it appears New Orleans was very much a Tartarian land (obviously) and I live in Mobile part time too, and now Im blown away at a possible tunnel system downtown. A lot of times in bed in the mornings I feel the ground shake, and its always so strange. But one of your viewers here said there are tunnels there. Just mind blowing. Love your videos. Hope you do more on the Orphan trains and our true origins...looks like we were created from underground labs and brought up in the 1800s.....@@Restitutor_Orbis_214
I meant to add City Hall, that building is actually very old inside but super neat. It hasnt changed at all over the years. I go there often for strawman documents. Its an eerie place, but quite nice.
@@AmayzArt Have you caught the two Orphan Train videos, the Reset War and the Incubator Babies videos?
@7:39, yet more trees with no leaves. Almost looks like moss or very short grass on the ground, or that recycled tire stuff you sometimes see in playgrounds(?). I assume they painted the trees to see them easier at night. Trees are probably 80 years old at this point. Electricity everywhere--not sure what year this is. Tracks but I don't look like they are electrical-trolly, as those usually have a 3rd rail up top. @ --8:12-- not any kind of grass I'm familiar with. Looks a bit like moss or chewed up dirt. Not bladed grass that was cut. --8:32-- "Anaheim?" "Ahhnaio" on each side of the sign? @ --10:00-- looks like turntables (curved concrete in floor) in the fort. @ --22:25-- I would love to ask a gal to dance in a swanky place like this. @ --27:06-- world's fair has the look of something where people needed to be introduced to what was around in the newly acquired/discovered lands. Gazibo thing -- energy generator??? @33:00 - Mosque turned general store. @ 34:57 One living tree, rest appears dead.
Love the video
Love everything about nola
but the narration is baffling and bewildering 😂
I am sure Christpoher Lambert will laugh some more.
The Moresque Building looks like the bottom of the Twin Towers!
Nothing gold can stay.
Can you do Mephis Tennessee next , or Chicago or even at. Louis. Their is definitely a connection between popular “black” towns or cities, and the unknown history of certain places, like many towns in Georgia
Already did Chicago and St Louis, Memphis in due time:

@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 okbet ima check those out
John Levi just did an Old Memphis video
That's a Major Metropolitan City
You might look at the hotel La Pavillion in the business district. Absolutely amazing 🤩
Check out Fort St. Phillip further toward the coast, super interesting history
hello again another fantastic video thanks! my thoughts about the pediments on some buildings are just blank....I think the blank ones have had their sculptures removed possibly due to unexplainable content.....most pediments are filled with a bunch of sculpture and some totally blank....hmmm
Good point! Great observation.
hopefully you have all of your content backed up on external hard drives etc.....you and many content creators have compiled an amazing collection of images and things that certain groups would be very happy to see just go away.....and I think they are doing the best they can to scrub these things out.....1 targeted attack against your computers would wipe out so much that needs to be saved.....I was also thinking about crowd funding or something to pay to have all of these images printed on high quality stock to last in the event of power loss..... harder for them to wipe out the actual paper.... thoughts?
@@the69dragon I have a lot of hard copies, the challenge though is it is clear there are alterations on older photos as well.
How'd they even do those pictures of New Orleans from above? I assume there's not some MASSIVE mountain there an artist with AMAZING eyesight was sitting on?
They will say balloon which officially was available but who knows for sure.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Have to be one sturdy balloon that doesn't move though. And a ridiculously patient and talented artist.
Blimp
@@alysekrysiak2184 Blimps don't move then, no? Use your head
Have you seen the video about the man who can draw a city scape from memory with just a fly over?
Dude have you ever ever worked in construction? You would understand how easy these things are to build with experience and sweat I live here and there's nothing unusual about the architecture you give a group of experienced workers a few yrs to build something you understand how gd highly skilled workers are and how easy it is to do go outside and start building something every day and in 5yrs you'll change your mind you'll learn how to use chain falls and pullies the 1st time you pick up 2500-3000 lbs by yourself with just a chain fall the light will go off in your head. Get outside and get your hands dirty
Thanks for watching and no one builds like that today.
I’m going this weekend to New Orleans if u want me to check any places out in lmk…
What you are implying is, frankly, nonsense. It was indeed literally a swamp before the French and Spanish created its beautiful colonial buildings. The star-shaped fort around it was made of wood, which is why there are no traces of it now. And yes, the artists' renderings are often not accurate. New Orleans was once the richest city in the U.S. due to cotton, sugar, and steamships, so why is it hard to imagine that so many beautiful, old-world or European-style buildings were constructed, especially since there were so many Europeans still there? There are many historical records that prove all this, such as newspapers, public records, and diaries of all this construction, so it's hilarious to think otherwise.
:)
Napoleon was a bit distracted with events in Europe at the time, and the French treasury needed the funds.
Six hundred thousand living off the land...it is such an interesting story.
Hackney Library in Muskegon MICHIGAN. And what used to be Patlind Hotel in Grand Rapids.
You should check out the new Russian military cathedral recently built outside Moscow.
It shows that people can still build massive and epic structures if there is a desire to do so.
Something feels very different about it. It reminds me of the Cathedral built in OKC in the US.
When’s every Saturday in airport from New Orleans?
i grew up in awe of all the school buildings. i had friends that went to McMain. it always amazed me how they NEVER ONCE washed that building. it seemed intentional as if everthing was clean but mcmain. shame.
Just looking at the drawings details it's pretty mind blowing
I would love to see a video on Savannah, GA!
Orleans is pronounced ORLEENZ when used alone - as in ORLEENZ Parish or ORLEENZ Public Library. You will still hear plenty of multi-genrational locals call New Orleans - New Or - Lee - Uns. You will almost never hear anyone locally say New Or - Leens when referring to the city.
I have found that pronunciations are a marvelous way to discourage people from discussing areas they do not live within.
@@Restitutor_Orbis_214 Not correcting you - adding to the discussion. I thought you and your viewers may like to know about the nuances that exist in the community. I thought it added another dimension to your video - one I enjoyed very much. Apologies if I wrote my comment in an insensitive way.
They are absolutely 100% positively without a doubt not trolleys they are Street Cars
Words absolutely 100% positively effectively control many minds.
In some parts of the country streetcars are called trolleys
You know, in all of these giant beautiful cities, laid out in all of their perfection, I would bet you dimes to doughnuts that just about every square inch that was not bricked and or concrete for getting around, it would have been a great and beautiful garden. And yet, it looks like every blade of grass has been destroyed, completely. Did the " all powerful Mudd Flood " wipe these places clean ? You'd think that the big old growth trees would have survived.
And yet it looks stripped, devoid of anything green.
Some of the birds eye view pictures seem to show plenty of greenery. Just seems weird.
The two hemi circular star forts that abut Lake Pontchartrain would have been outfitted with cannons to attack ships that were attempting to enter port during a siege. But of course their locations are not dissimilar to lighthouses or towers that would have abut similar port styling in older civilizations. Basically if you have a city that is on a lake or port or near a river that can be defended with a "gate" or defenses then it probably should be.
Fort Macomb looks like a compass. Both do. Just left new orleans❤
I visited the older Ursuline. Insane artifacts
How do these “great fires “ start? Someone left a burner on in the kitchen while cooking beans ? Definitely those fires are direct energy weapons in my opinion.
Burner left on, cow kicked something, random misfortune. There seems to be a very intentional aspect behind them.
Lol... general Charlton Heston!
You got a laugh out of me, my friend!!
lambasté.
I believe the Star Forts were ancient battery powering stations. I live in the Detroit area &:you can clearly see from the aerial photos of Old Fort Detroit, I mean the Detroit International exposition which was in the 1890s, you can see how the star fort was directly connected to the larger Fort. Detroit did not have a world's fair but instead we had a world's International exhibition which ran for 6 years, I believe from 1889 till 1895 when it was allegedly torn down. Now that area today is a heavily polluted & industrialized area called Zug Island. The star fort is preserved but its impossible to get down there because they are building a new bridge to Canada, I wonder what that's all about....😅
