Old World Scranton Pa

[@crossthreading8157]

What’s amazing is some people can look at these old structures and could care less about the past civilization. It’s going to take a miracle if mankind survives this reset in progress. The old civilization was obviously intelligent and got wiped out.

[@mitchdowning8188]

You are right that past civilizations were more advanced. We are at the iron and miry clay feet of the "Statue of Stone" described in the Book of Daniel. Mankind has reached the "end of the line" in this world.

[@tripzincluded8087]

as will every civilization until it stops being a world view run by the bankers & We start Being Humane again in Truth.

The blast furnaces, a.k.a. iron furnaces were meant to melt ore into steel. They were built by people who had poverty and craftsmanship and pride at the same time. The furnaces started in 1840 as Scranton, Grant and Company. It had the largest iron production capacity in the United States by 1865. By 1880 125,000 tons of pig iron, which was converted in its rolling mill and foundry into T- rails and other end products. Also, Scranton was known as the little apple because architects who designed buildings in New York City were also designers of buildings in Scranton and surrounding areas like the Lackawaxen viaduct which was designed by John Roebling. Scranton also had a very famous red light district which rivaled New York City.

Thank you for doing Scranton, and thank you for using some of my pictures. Really enjoyed seeing what you dug up, verse what I found.

[@oldworldex]

Thanks for your contribution....glad you enjoyed it!

Watching all the buildings get torn down is sickening...

[@Kat.Evangeline14]

Home of the Friendless - 😊 Hilarious It was just yesterday I watched a ghost investigation at a Ohio (i think) Prison where the guide said; Prisoners built this section of the Prison as she stood near the perfect masonry. 😮 I wish more people had critical thinking skills. Why were the Prisons built like castles ? What do we build nowadays?

[@maxwellsmart6601]

Unlike Andy Dufrain (Shawshank) I was actually in that prison. But just like Andy Dufrain I have swam through a river of sh!t only to come out clean on the other end.

[@dottiscamprunamuck2830]

I love seeing all the old buildings. I never liked seeing them torn down, even as a child I thought they were beautiful.

[@brian-te4xs]

I look for a new post from you every day. I have been with you since your first videos and it’s cool to see the channel grow. After watching Scranton I would love for you to do more on small towns. It’s as fascinating as the large cities. With your narrative, buildings and the census. Keep exposing any city that is worthy.

[@Blackdiamondprod.]

Scranton has an urban population of over 500,000 people and the larger NEPA area has over 1.3 million residents. It is by no means a small city.

[@brian-te4xs]

Cool, I believe I was referring to Scranton as a small town/city during that time era.

[@Blackdiamondprod.]

@@brian-te4xs it was always a pretty big city. Pittston, Wilkes-Barre, and Carbondale were all very densely populated by the time that part of the city was built, and it had an immediate boom due to the railroads and iron mills.

[@kxi529]

watching what i first thought was a wholesome video of a guy who enjoys historic architecture slowly divulge into schizophrenic rambling about a hidden mythological civilization was kind of hilarious. Thanks for making my day.

[@trinity7776]

Another great post proving that we have many centuries of vast human intellect and skill all around us but no longer with us. There is nothing new under the sun. Just look at the automobiles from the 1940's and 50's compared to today's. Does anyone here really believe that anyone is going to care to even put a restored 2023 auto in a museum a hundred years from now? We keep asking ourselves how they did this rather than asking ourselves why we can't do this today.

[@samaulicino4202]

Well done. Please take me back in time!

[@nyquil762]

Wow and thank you.

[@CyborIndustries]

Not sure about the circuit board theory - but - The thing I found interesting about Scranton is that when they were building it up... They brought in architects from all over the world. So there's all different styles of architecture in various buildings. Growing up there in the 80's-90's.... I never really appreciated it until I got older. I would walk past the Raddison Hotel and the Iron Furnaces almost every day and could see it (Radisson) from my house. Which... was a small old coal miners residence. I was probably one of the very few kids born in the 80's that had to shovel coal into the furnace to heat the place. (I'm surprised you didn't highlight the Raddison Hotel. Check out the history of the Raddison when you have a chance- I'd love to see a modern video done on the hotel. It was an extremely important building since it doubled as a train station and is made of limestone/marble.. etc. It was how people traveled to Scranton before coal became obsolete.) Scranton has such a bad reputation (some justified) but it truly is a shame because of how absolutely beautiful the city/town is. I hate seeing any historical building in Scranton being demolished. What a trip down memory lane this video was for me. It's wild that a lot of the photos you were showing were very old and yet I still remember these places looking the same in the 90's and even still to this day. Thank you for doing this short retrospective on Scranton PA. Always cool to see.

[@goose33]

I had a training in the Radisson hotel and man did I get dark vibes in there The room we were in reminded me of a sacrifice altar room it was strange

[@bvigo381]

Great journey, thank you. I also agree with your hypothesis. You should cover the senseless destruction of the Jessup PA area dams and pump houses, very close to Scranton. Similar construction and look, would have lasted another 100yrs until some conservancy conserved history right out of existence. 🤔

[@Lucky3horse]

You should check into wilks Barre pa. Look at Kings College

[@michaelchez6638]

[@justinmus2896]

You failed to show our beautiful landfill! There are dozens of dams in the area with that same style of block work you pointed out. The Elmhurst dam you showed has been completely remodeled hiding alot of the blockwork but not all. I'd also like to add that there is no part of this surrounding area that has not been touched. Trees are clear cut once they mature over and over , rock/coal and all other resources have been stripped from the surface time after time. Our trees are diseased and dieing/weeds and invasive plants have filled the gaps. And now the new yorkers have come , officially ruining a nice place to live

[@LevelUpDaily434]

Magnetron windows. For electricity/electrical generation. Look up magnetrons, everybody thinks it is cymatic patterns but it's been pointed out to me and others and is very obvious once you see and research magnetrons

[@the69dragon]

hello sir great video!... at 17:21 if you pause the video and look at the arch way......really look at the arch and inside the arch..... the arch is definitely made of red bricks but when you look at the inside of the arch it has that "stone" look.....I think the arch is entirely red brick and they used some type of fake stone concrete...... geo-polymer.....whatever you want to call it and coated the bricks making it look like stone.....there are many spots in this video where it appears that there are random bits of stone over top of bricks etc and not where it was built over but where it looks like the rest of the "fake stone" wall covering has broken away leaving small bits that look like stone blocks on covering bricks...... It really looks to me like they use alot of different ways to cover brick structures ..... imo to hide the sheer size and immense nature of these buildings........ this video has lots of spots where it looks like it was damaged and people just jammed any rocks etc to fill holes so that makes it tougher to figure out too

[@gregoryagogo]

Last photo is a demolition photo, not a construction photo!

[@oldworldex]

True...I thought about correcting that but figured I'd get some help so I left it the way it is.

The Sagrada Família has been under construction for 140 years!, with work beginning as early as 1882. It is now in its final stages and is expected to be fully completed by 2030 or 2032. Some of the buildings in your videos are close / similar in terms of the difficulty of their construction. But the construction period was probably not 140 years 😅

Very interesting…I have to revisit your thesis. Regards Scranton, and the corridor of Route 81, a lot was accomplished with chattel slavery, indentured servants, and, later, destitute European migrants driven hard after the civil war by so-called “coal and iron” police. I’ll go back and look at this with new eyes. Thank you.

[@DrewishBear]

Please consider some lofi/chillhop for the main body of the soundtrack. The piano intro/outtro is beautiful! The more complex/intense classical stuff is great too, but the richness of the music detracts from the fascinating imagery, your interesting commentary, and the deductive thought process required to fathom these HUGE historical implications. Just my 2¢ though. Mostly- thank you for compiling and researching all this. I don’t mean to be a negative critic at all! Your style of photo presentation and avoidance of speculation or dogma is refreshing. Objectivity is key and you seem to have it!

[@artstation707]

@@oldworldex The question is, how much of this is made up? You do the world no service in promoting fakery. I believe something did happen before the 19th century, and evidence exists, but I can't accept where you're going with this, because there's no guarantee the locations like small towns ever contained these buildings. Therefore, you should focus only on places where buildings still exist. It's an adjustment that strengthens the argument rather than weakening it.
