Iconic collections, amazing appreciation, incredible style, great Preservationist, high minded, sheltered at risk treasures , thoughtfully repurposed , enriching Americans culture, and so much more. Thank you Marjorie Werriweather Post , I love who you were, and your timeless contribution to America 🇺🇸

Let’s go gambreling! Sorry guys I’m a college dropout this is cool though and related to my career so thanks

This inspires me!

I consistently hear from visitors that much of Charlestons appeal in regards to urban planning and architecture is its similarity to Europe. I’d think further developments with that intent would marry the growth to preservation. If new apartments mirrored the old boarding houses sparing no expense on fascia (like on market street) and were naturally zoned to facilitate community and commercial growth.

Such a very informative video! Thanks for this type of content

Wonderful

Napoléon was not short, he was 1.68m tall!

Gosh i love this.

I visited South Carolina over this past summer. I couldn't get past all the Confederate crap all over the place and "Rebel" stores littered with Confederate propaganda. I won't be back.

This is fascinating content, but I'm only 7 minutes in and not sure I can make it through Mr Morrone's wildly overdramatic speaking style and apparent inability to stop bobbing around the lectern and flailing his arms while speaking. Exhausting to watch.

29:29 “ real guys don’t wear shoes” i am certain as the proper man which i am shure you are this has been a purely sarcastic remark but if you should have meant even a word of what you said in anything but said sarcastic context not even your American nature would be excuse enough for that

Loved this. Who lives there now or is it a museum?

Great lecture! So engaging. Really enoyed this. Thank you for this educational experience.

Fantastic talk! Wonderful images and examples of new developments using traditional design elements.

I am studying art history in Paris university, your lectures are of immense help, and fascinating in of themselves. Thank you very much!

Thank you so very much

Pedestrian-scaping and creating a sense of place would make Jane Jacobs proud.

My blood pressure may have increased during the Le Corbusier segment

I was fortunate to grow up in Point Breeze. We had 5 properties from the early 60s through the late 90s. My favorite home was on S. Lang between Reynolds and Penn. It has a tower and turret. In my opinion, Frick is the best park in the city. Great post!

Delicious...

I'm sorry to say it but Michelangelo's Porta Pia is just not beautiful.

What a throughly wonderful story, beautifully told. Thank you.

>insert slavery Every time. That’s the kind of thinking that leads to promoting the city coffers and social program income at expense to architectural marvels enriching everyday lives of citizenry. For something like Charleston to exist building neoclassical, most likely it isn’t just local gov forcing only classical to be built, it’s also tax exemptions and loopholes, along with regulatory exemptions making 2-3 story ground-level spaces feasible without too much extraordinary cost. Multiple intra and inter organizational (labor, resource procurement (marble, brick clay), sculptural (applying sculpting and material sciences for pillars and facades external and internal) and management (building organizers, contractors) and city involvement

I appreciate that you acknowledge that many factors need to be considered. Think of the White House. It seems that many trees have been planted by presidents over time that have shrouded the building from view? This highlights the complications involved.😊😊

Chester station? Bloody hell you went miles out of your way

Its simple charleston will fail in creating a sustainable future because of their history. They wouldnt even allow discorse of have an open hearing on their sustainability initiative, and they clearly need people like me to show them how much change they need. we dont even have side walks. churches, bars, no activities for aspiring youth. lots of DUI money the list literally doesnt stop. why do you think no one likes to perform here , the people are unbearable . racism and entitlement everywhere

Wow, name one lie... crazy how i was hated before i was even born. Long live John brown though

Go OFF sis!

Congressman John Lewis, not Senator. We'll forgive you, Brit. Nice presentation.

I happen to be building a brick stem wall on a greenhouse, and I was wondering what sorts of brick patterns I could use for this stem wall. Lo and behold I found this video, with more information on precisely that than I ever thought to find on KZbin. Thanks for providing this!

Agree 100% about Charles Mc.Kim. An architectural giant against the minuscule “starachitects” of today.

A really excellent overview. It was fascinating to hear more about current projects such as Woodstock.

This was really interesting, and it was great learning so much about Rome through the centuries. Fascinating. I enjoyed his talk immensely.

What a gorgeous property you've created.

Very impressive work. You're to be congratulated.

I'm a trained architect and learned much in this session.

Those are the ugliest pillar capitals I have ever seen.

Alberti's teachings are a direct challenge towards modern architecture where beauty is regarded as subjective.

Euro money really is ugly.

I saw a TV commercial this morning for Humana Health Care. As I am watching it, I look at the scenes and realize it was filmed in Piermont. You can see the entrance to the Village Hall and the balcony of the Turning Point music venue/restaurant followed by the gazebo in the park by the waterfront...what a coincidence !

Whoahhh! Lapsus of the Year: The Paris Opera is a Charles Garnier building; not a Tony Garnier one. This is similar to mixing Stravinsky and Tchaikovsky.

Great looking building

We need to preserve older Charleston as a memory, a memorial and a reminder. If you know your pre-Civil War history, or even your pre-revolutionary war history, Charleston has a checkered past. The buildings that remain hopefully will remind us of how far we have come; let's not let history be whitewashed.

Is this a joke?
