Welcome back.
Today is a great little video, as it comes to me as a request from a subscriber and viewer. In today’s video we will dive back into the “Old World Series” where we take a look at the most important, impactful or major cities from pre-1900, and their histories into modern times.
For today’s video we will focus on Cape May, New Jersey. Initially, Cape May was said to be a vacation retreat for the Lenape Warriors and their families.
We will discuss the implications of that, and make some ties to some previous videos I have made on related topics. Overall, the main focus will be roughly 50 Old World photographs of Cape May, New Jersey from the late 1800’s and onward. I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments down below 👇 Thank you so much for joining me, Enjoy!

We visit Cape May at least 3 times a year, it is a beautiful town, great family destination, would say there is not another like it in the whole U.S. It does pack in however during the summer days. Congress Hall remains and they do tell of the of the great fire that wiped out a lot of the original Victorian homes. During storms, some of the old rail road tracks are exposed on the beach. According to the historical documents I have seen there, the beach has been eroding for centuries. Thanks for this video, love seeing those old pictures.

Now... this is really interesting research and hypothesis. Some very good points/pointers to open debate. It is a shame (and possibly criminal) that 'arson'(?) and lack of historical records restrict conclusions - but do not impede the investigations.

Lack of historical records allow for additional control. Baltimore experienced a "Great" fire too. A month after the original business owner died. Said a cigarette took out half of the city, so that Rockefeller could raise the new gods to the center of the Jesuit controlled city.

Love staying in Cape May! There are still many preserved Victorian homes to see and some to stay in, as many are b&b's. The beaches are nice and clean, the boutique shops are fun. And a carriage ride through the city at night is so romantic. Would like to point out that the picture of the "Light of Asia" elephant building is actually of her older sister "Lucy", who still stands today in Margate, NJ. The only existing picture of the "Light of Asia" shows a partially completed structure

Preaching conspiracy theory...w.t.f does that mean..conspiracy theorist was a term coined by the C.I.A aimed towards people who asked questions about J.F.K and his suspicious death it was a term created to mock them and too make them look crazy for simply asking questions about his death...all these people are are researchers n truth seekers who ask questions..its important too ask questions n suggest new theory's the great minds off the past were constantly asking new questions n suggesting new theory too old things its a perfectly normal thing too do amongst human beings we arnt just robots you give one awnser too and we just do and belive as we are told and if you do do that then your a fool..nobody preaches conspiracy theory what a ridiculous thing too say they ask questions and do research and suggest hypothesis that is all...

Cape may and wildwood have the whitest sand beaches in Jersey nothing like the rest of the shore towns! The amount of Victorian homes there is only rivaled by one place in America and it’s a neighborhood in Louisville Kentucky. Have you seen the old hotel that was demolished in Atlantic City?! It was stunning. Thank you for all the research you do brother.

I wouldnt know where to begin... from my time spent in Cape May, both living there and as a scalloper on commercial vessels docked there, to my time spent in the 'four corners' region (NJ, PA, DE, MD) hanging cable TV lines - pole to pole for miles and miles, through some of the most beautiful lands in the world (Paradise, Lancaster, Lititz, etc) - yes, in the 'Amish country' - (for the Mennonites, mostly) - even rowing a boat with my crew across the Susquehana to hang cable to two towers on each side of the river and attaching it to 80' poles on either side, or climbing the Conestoga trail, up to the Pequa cold caves and getting lost in there while spelunking, etc... But I can say, that youre onto the bigger picture regarding the secret history of the entire area that 'the powers that shouldnt be' definitely DO NOT want us to know about. Great video Jar. Thanks for the memories. (Atlantic City was an amazing place too.)

I grew up in Cape May - the pier isn’t there anymore, but if you go to the beachside Convention Hall building cluster, the restaurant all the way on the right (Ocean Deck, Henry’s, Mermaids, I don’t know what it is called these days), it has the pier’s old ticket window still in it (in the front door on the right, part of the “windowed wall” that separates parts of the restaurant. It still looks like a ticket window). My Grandmom’s best friend ran the Ocean Deck when I was a little girl, she was the one that told me what that was, and she’s have grown up in Cape May in the 19teens and 1920’s. I always thought that was really cool. I also thought it was really interesting that the pier met it’s demise by people rushing out to the end of it to see a ship fire. And last random local fact, my old next door neighbor lived in West Cape May during the storm that took out South Cape May. She said it drowned all their chickens, and that after the storm her brothers had a truck and helped people try to salvage some of their belongings before the houses fell over post-storm in South Cape May. Crazy stuff!

This presentation has lifted another veil regarding the native Americans. They were far more advanced than we were made to believe. We tend to think of that their architectural style was that of a wigwam, when in actuality they were building mammoth intricately designed buildings. Their images are carved into the city hall of Philadelphia, which happens to be the largest municipal building in the world.

Any opinions on old buldings being destroyed to destroy the tech as well as possible entrances to underground tunnels? Than taken over by the city or the government because a private owner would prob stumble across underground entrances or access ones they know about from oral history from their family? Why hasn't goverment, states, city's who have been donated or brought these lands use them to give lower income people neighborhoos or plots of land to fix up instead of only making buildings to house lower income families and stuff them all in small apartments and buildings while funding pays 2,000 a month or more in rental assistance while the families pay 50 a month if anything? Cheaper, more efficent to give people land, houses and neighborhoods for a fraction of the price. A project building has an average of about 500 apts per building. 2000 a month times.500 the goverment pays and right next to that building is another and another. 10 buildings groupled together with the government paying for 5,0000 families living in buildings that cover les than 2 acres. Why so many national parks with more aceres in one than moat of all the indian reservations together

Have you been to Cape May? Because if you have than you would know why Travel Magazine rates it as a top ten tourist town in America.
