  1. Those beautiful old houses gentrified the neighborhoods which existed before they were built.

  2. The Colosseum was destroyed at, least parts of it, many times. What we see today is largely restoration and preservation carried out starting in the 18th Century.

  3. Much of the history demolished in that time period was the result of earlier demolition to build the houses torn down in the 1950's

  4. An ironic statement since it was greed, power, and lack of caring, which created the fortunes which built them in the first place.

  6.  @mariecolette170  Greed was what enabled these families to build the mansions in the first place. What a warped perspective.

  8. Love your channel but I disagree with parts of this video. For instance the William Clark Mansion only existed for 16 years. It had zero historical or cultural value and was strictly the act of a single ego blown out of proportion. In one of the world's largest cities, it would make no sense to use this land strictly for old house tours and cultural events.

  16. Upside down and backwards, the houses he demolished were based in greed and narcissism while the apartments which replaced them are utilitarian.
