New York City (1860-1960) The Ultimate Photographic Compilation. Oldest, Rarest, Most Unique Images

Ойын-сауық

Welcome back. The Big Apple, Metropolis, The City That Never Sleeps: In my years of research, I’ve steadily been accumulating the rarest photographs of New York City which I could find.
Now, with even more pre-1900 photographs being provided to me by you the viewers, I’d like to share with you today a compilation of the oldest and most unique photographs of New York City from my collection.
I’ve tried to select photographs that I have not seen shared on other videos, hoping to help add my own two cents to the discussion, and give everyone some fuel to their research fire. These are my absolute favorite photographs of New York City; photographs from 1860 through 1960.
I hope with this research we will help inspire new conversations over the grand architecture of our past. There will not be much of a narrative here beyond the 8-minute mark, however this will be a deep, detailed dive through hundreds of images.
Feel free to play your own music, or enjoy the sounds of Goodlander, Drumstick, and Urban Instrumentalist. Thanks for being here. Without you, these videos wouldn’t be possible. Please leave your thoughts and comments about Old World New York City down below, and let me know which specific images you would like to learn more about in the future. Please share this important video if you enjoyed it!

    An incredible journey back thank you.. I grew up an hour away from the City and lived in lower Manhattan in 1978-81 as a drummer.. My greatest memories are walking with eyes wide open to the grandeur and magnificence from the Battery to Central Park.. Oh my I think I could cry as I smile fondly.. Seems like a long ago yesterday.. Dear brother what have they done to magic and imagination?

    Bill, and what a fine drummer you are. I have many of your recordings and love the work you did with early Material/New York Gong and Kramer. Thanks for everything! And sadly yes, a lot of what we see in these images is gone. We don't preserve anything in this country. We recently visited London and I was astonished that I could walk around in a city that is largely hundreds of years old.

    My great-great-grandfather stepped of the ship in NYC from Cork, Ireland and enlisted in the NY 69th "Fighting Irish" and fought for the Union in 1862. My paternal grandfather was 3 when his family left Poland shortly before WW1. He worked in a cigar factory as a stock clerk across the street from the Empire State Building and told me it was amazing watching them construct it!

    18:36 Drawing free energy from the field ...seen these field disruption loops in other pictures, this one is quite a clean shot of it! ...nice find! By the time of this image they had removed many of the Mercury receivers ...interesting to see this one still operational at this period of time! You can see part of a much larger field disruption loop in a picture at 11:20 about a 3rd of the way down on the building with black smoke coming out of the top of it left of center, you can’t see the entire loop as in the cleaner shot but the part that is visible is very distinct and indicative of the size of the structure inducing it! ...you should set these images aside in a separate collection and see if you can find more in your repertoire and maybe do a video just on Tartarian Field Disruption Loops... as I don’t think anyone else has done one! ...you should get a tremendous amount of attention! ...good luck to you! ...be safe and be well! The one is among us! ...he has never left our side! ...he knows and has seen and remembers it all as if it was all today! ...because it was! It will all be again as it was... as it is... and as it will be! ...because there is no other way!

One picture showed a building that was on a corner sharing 22nd and Broadway. On the corner of these adjoining streets was the Regina Music Box store on the ground floor. Later the building was replaced by the Flatiron Building. Amazing pictures!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!

    Electrician who builds bridges here, no that how they would build it. First the main columns, then the main support vectors/cables,then the vertical lines would be hung to support the horizontal bridge sections. Many people died doing that work. We all forget people worked 12+ hours a day there was no safety protocol to slow down projects to a crawl. Even in the last 20 years safety protocol has reduced efficiency by 20-30% in spite of new equipment and tech.

    Wonderful photos. Great city. In the 60s life was easier and cities would grow fast. Three bad things were yet to come - terror , oil crisis and the rising of communism after 1975, all over the world. These 3 things made western life change. It is good when people can improve the places where they live with their work. So many workers made this city great. Hope it gets better. Some landmarks never change: the river, the Park with old trees, the different houses, the church, the court house, the shops, the advertisements. I did not see a grave-yard or a prison. Maybe prices are too high for such places in NY. And even better - the bridges, the cars, the ships, the trains, the stations, the underground, the zeppelin, the planes. There's a photo of horses and coaches by the park - that was a slow way of living that shows the differences in just one century. When you find horses in a modern city that is a good sign - modern way of living did not kill traditional ways of living. It is a way of keeping the past generations still present in our city. The sign I liked the most " Welcome Home". I imagine it was there for soldiers after WWII but I don't know. This channel is great. Thank you.

    In the late 60's seemed everyone young was moving from the east to the west coast, Southern California was filling up so quickly.. Out of youthful curiosity i had to know where all these different people i was meeting were coming from, so i took my 1st trip to the east coast on a motorcycle, I was 16, the bike was a small 1953 BMW. Took 4 days of straight riding to get to Manhattan from LA . I only had 10 days to do the whole round trip, So i checked out what i could & knew i would come back for a longer stay in the city. 3 years later i caught a ride to NYC and had all summer, So i bought an little old Lambretta scooter in little Italy and rode every street and alley on the big Island..There was a trashman's strike going on and in some areas of the city the trash & garbage bags were piled more than 2 stories high, people would throw their trash out of the 4th or 20th story window down to the streets & alleys below.. the main streets were usually 4 lanes wide with fairly wide sidewalks, 2 laneseach way,, and sometime 5 or 6 lanes wide in newer parts of the city, side streets maybe 2 lanes and alleys often a single lane, the trash was piled so high thick everywhere that a 4 lane street was narrowed down to a single lane garbage rising up multiples stories above especialy in those places with the old brick ghetto hotels & early high rises, 2 lane streets as wide as a bike path or sidewalk running through the garbage. i rode that motor scooter on every road and alley on the island for a month and the trash was still piling ever higher & workerss strike was still on,, So i left & rode up to Boston,, NYC was amazing i can' t imagine how many of those massive old 15 story brick hotels & rooming houses have been torn down for the new construct of high rises since the times i was back there, I know out west i watched Las Vegas skyline completely change and double in size in less than 10 years, Old Casinos i saw torn down in the 60's and re built alot bigger when i was young, only to get torn down again in the 80's to make room for an even larger taller hotel.. I wonder how many old bricks were dumped into New York harbor over the years to create the foundation for more valuable real estate. Kind of like San Francisco's turning shore filled dumps into dollars, very unstable real estate in earth quake country.

First stop for lunch in NYC and our luggage was stolen out of her car! Found an Army/Navy surplus for bell bottoms and T shirts, then on to Delaware. Never went back but it was an interesting trip!

    The architecture of most of the palaces is clearly ancient and strangely very similar to the architecture of the monuments of ancient Rome. I am Italian, I have lived in Rome for forty years and I know that type of architecture. I am now convinced that the story they told us is a complete lie. But I struggle looking for a way to understand when and how this ancient civilization ended, which we call "Tartary", and how it could end up and be erased, leaving no traces other than the photos of these wonderful and imposing buildings and little else ?

    Well, no wonder that's what the Founding fathers aimed for... To recreate the Roman Empire like all medieval European monarchs and colonists did! Greek rival was in style not only because of the Roman Empire but also because it symbolized democracy, individuality and everything that had to do with ancient Greece. Also, some of the skyscrapers of that era have elements of ancient Mesopotamian and Egyptian designs (interior and exterior) that resemble ziggurats and pyramids, probably to add prestige and pay homage to those ancient rulers, who ruled the early organized societies...

    The 1927 film "Metropolis" is a testament to what the people of that era had in mind for our future and how badly we've squandered their vision. The photo at 4:55 is wonderful. And captures the travesty our current world. The architecture, the metal craftsmanship, and the freedom (to take the risk to climb up and take that picture) have all been lost.

    Metropolis was about how the future of mankind will be an automaton and that the poor and working class get sacrificed to Moloch. Because in order to have nice things one must sacrifice. They destroy the old to sell you the idea of evolution and out with the old and in with the new which they will try and convince you that is in the best interest of humanity and it is not.

    I've wondered about that "old-looking when supposedly new" too. Could it possibly be that bricks are so non-reflective that they just look dimmer than other surfaces? Any brand spanking new bricks I've seen might look lighter and 'pinker', but concrete and bricks both tend to darken over time. That said, tho'...I do agree that the buildings do not look new by any means..
