Abandoned Tennessee Castle finally being restored

Ойын-сауық

This is the real story told behind the ashlar hall. The story behind the Ashlar Hall, is something quite interesting. As you see this Castle like building you start to think to yourself. What happened here. Or what's the story behind this place.
Hi I'm Zach and welcome to Rooted Expeditions. Today we will be diving into the history this Mansion holds. From originally being built as a home for a man and his family to a Man who claimed to be an alien. YES you heard me an Alien. But we will get into that in just a moment.
This Castle that was built and left to decay has finally found a owner worthy enough to take on the task to bring it back to life. With odds that might seem too difficult to face. This new owner proved that what many said was impossible was made possible by one man's dream which became a reality. Hit that thumbs up and Let's take a look into the events that shaped this building today.
built in memphis tennessee.

    Stunning! I just don't understand why these beautiful homes dwindle so. I know there are circumstances and I guess being stubborn and full of ideas, I'm always looking for reason, to save the Nastaja in our historic buildings. We actually could learn a lot from the island across the pond. Some colonies refuse to change the historic look of their small towns so the tourist can enjoy the beauty.

    So many here have not learned to appreciate age and craftmanship and beauty. They are all about 'new is better' . They would rather have strandboard and vinyl than real wood and stone. Many have no knowledge of history, and do not understand about preservation, and its value.

    The cost of maintaining a home of this size limits who can afford to own it. If the surrounding area is in decline security becomes an issue. This house is 11 thousand square feet. It's historic so climate control is a must especially in Memphis where humidity is high. It's sad but I can certainly understand why so many of these beautiful homes have been lost. When they were built labor was cheap and there wasn't property taxes or income taxes, etc. Memphis has quite a lot of historic homes, perhaps not castles but lovely just the same. It's one of the things that I like about it and one of the reasons I moved here.
