    I just remembered him as an architect first, before i was reminded of the drama and the movie ‘the girl on the red velvet swing’ that I remember seeing in the past, (even though it was made long before I had seen it) (now you could not pay me to live in The Gotham full of necromancers)

    The original drawing of the Diana statue, was concieved as Gabriel in the drawing.

    What’s with the dig at President Trump in the introduction by Cavett? Why do that? Can’t you, for once, focus on the subject without injecting your modern political opinion via snide remarks?

  4. @Autumnfaery2003 on December 5, 2023 at 8:21 am

    He was a a rapist and a schmuck.

  5. @charliesmith_ on December 5, 2023 at 8:21 am

    25:00 ooooh, strangely vulgar in the majority of the US for the period. Very ‘luche’ nouveaux riche ‘French’ adopted ‘oggling thing’. Like the 1889 Moulin Rouge. 😏

    One nit…The asylum that Thaw was sent to was Matteawan in Fishkill, NY…not the Jersey shore.

    Corneilus Vanderbilt paid for the Central railroad Depot . Aka The grand central railroad in NYC .

    Well done!

  10. @LWilli5 on December 5, 2023 at 8:31 am

    Affair? Evelyn Nesbitt was 14! He was a pedophile and rapist.

  11. @jessrouse8475 on December 5, 2023 at 8:31 am

    These historical idiots should be ashamed of themselves for releasing lies like this. No proof horse and buggy didn’t do any of this …….research THE PHONIEX PHENOMENON OF 1902 YOULL SOON SEE WHY.

  12. @H.M.Worthington-bc3ph on December 5, 2023 at 8:33 am

    Stanford White never slept with Evelyn Nesbit. He was a great man, full of character. Just because a man and a woman are friends does not mean that they are lovers. Friends and friends only. Stanford White was a man of conviction and believed in the holy Union of man and woman…what you have said is, well…

    Wrong and wronger… he was assassinated because he helped Tesla build Wardenclyff Tower.

    Look into it.

  13. @pcpablo2 on December 5, 2023 at 8:33 am

    Now you can own it. On sale for only $80,000,000! but the bad news…….$23,000 taxes…a month!

  18. @danhicks684 on December 5, 2023 at 8:37 am

    I loved this!!!

  19. @joeydelrio on December 5, 2023 at 8:38 am

    this guy was a pervert and a rapist. but since he was born into a wealthy privileged family he never spent a day in jail, never held accountable for his actions, what a scumbag.

  20. @ricardodelano2205 on December 5, 2023 at 8:39 am

    look at the insipid building they put up and call it madison square garden now.

  21. @theresapierce3934 on December 5, 2023 at 8:40 am

    I can’t help but think the arch looks like Marble arch, London.

  22. @jessrouse8475 on December 5, 2023 at 8:41 am

    Please.provide photos of stabdford white and others on the building sight if these so called buildings?? You can’t because they don’t exist!! The reset of 1902 is substantial for learning about how history taught is not history TRUE!! PROVIDE PROOF!!! HORSE AND BUGGY ERA DID NONE OF THIS !!!!!!!!

  23. @jamesjordan6398 on December 5, 2023 at 8:42 am

    I wish that the truer story was out there, not just titilation.

  24. @missfeliss3628 on December 5, 2023 at 8:44 am

  26. @Colin-Fenix on December 5, 2023 at 8:48 am

    "Putter-together"? Sorry, she is just a little too enthusiastic.

  27. @user-qf7ud5de9h on December 5, 2023 at 8:50 am

    His son dates Taylor now

  28. @christopherralphbianco4623 on December 5, 2023 at 8:51 am

    I worked with one of Stanford White’s Great Grandsons Peter. This is a great documentary.

  29. @user-qf7ud5de9h on December 5, 2023 at 8:51 am

    It sounds like Stanford obsessive compulsive but he was also a victim of cancel culture. At least there is a college with his name on it(?)

  30. @bfendii955 on December 5, 2023 at 8:52 am

    I want to oracle charter school the good year mansion it was so beautiful it had these big beautiful fire places hand craved wood all the way up to celling it still has this big beautiful stair well the masion still pretty much intact rd they just added the school part behind but they closed the school doesn’t to turn them into apartments and a hotel unfortunately it’s pleasure getting to experience that during my high school years their were rumors about the mansion being haunted their were a few odd moments…

  31. @partlycloudy3519 on December 5, 2023 at 8:54 am

    The statue of liberty was not created by Americans it was a gift from the French ! The platform which it stands on was made in America .

  32. @Tsumami__ on December 5, 2023 at 8:57 am

    Treasures of New York, ephebophile rapist Stanford White.

  33. @Paul-cb8cf on December 5, 2023 at 8:57 am

    More Pagan Roman architecture. A bunch of garbage. As God said the 4th empire upon the earth(rome) is still alive today and britain and america are part of it.

  34. @wakingupKosher on December 5, 2023 at 8:58 am

    You left out rapist

  35. @proudvirginian on December 5, 2023 at 9:00 am

    @thishouse I was watching this and then I realized I’ve seen him in a lot of your videos. An unintentional deep dive

  36. @andersliljevall2946 on December 5, 2023 at 9:01 am

    Interesting but the damned music kills it, as Usual. But fantastic buildings!

  37. @di2743 on December 5, 2023 at 9:01 am

    Thank you for the history of this massive man n team. The Gilded Age was an extraordinary time. #European

  38. @jamielancaster01 on December 5, 2023 at 9:01 am

    Too bad he was a pedophile! Evelyn Nesbitt testified to that in court, after her husband shot and killed Stanford White!

  39. @jessrouse8475 on December 5, 2023 at 9:02 am

    The best part about this , it’s all a lie!! Our reality was altered after the phoniex event in 1902! If your not a damn fool you’d realize people in horse and carriage could NEVER HAVE THE ABILITY TO BUILD THESE BUILDINGS!!!! No photos to prove it also. Do your own research it’s not rocket science . IF you have the eyes too see and the brain to question EVERYTHING . This is all a lie….Stanford white didn’t build any of these they were already there before the great RESET OF 1902!

  40. @user-qf7ud5de9h on December 5, 2023 at 9:02 am

    Social clubs were how they survived their marriages

  41. @720stacia on December 5, 2023 at 9:02 am

    My father, Stanford McDonald, was named for him. He liked his name and its history. Was mildly annoyed when people called him Stanley.😂

  42. @ghostma13 on December 5, 2023 at 9:03 am

    Oh wow remember him for all his copies of ideas 😮😅

  43. @anthonyhudson3136 on December 5, 2023 at 9:06 am

    this cunt was a rapist, murdered by the husband of the girl he raped..

  44. @chuckschillingvideos on December 5, 2023 at 9:06 am

    The greatest American architect ever. His work is unparalleled.

  45. @variousJnames on December 5, 2023 at 9:06 am

    Why was the Donald Trump comment necessary? Sad

  50. @spaceexploration4169 on December 5, 2023 at 9:16 am

    Stanford was talented but also STUPID to mess with another man’s wife.
