We're told the winds were too strong for an airship to be able to moor at the top of the Empire State building that was designed IN THE FIRST PLACE to withstand the pulling force from an airship. Sure. You're not lying and downplaying their success or anything...

Hotel Astor "Completed in 1904"

Same year Baltimore burned down, Toronto burned down, Dreamland in Coney Island 'opened' and the world lost the best of St Louis. Also massive floods from Pennsylvania to Arizona all year...

All in a year.

There was beauty in these lands once. It all had to go.

The photo shows a massive temporary decorative column built to celebrate the coronation of Russia's last emperor, Tsar Nicholas II. Moscow, Russia, 1896. Always temporary, cos they liked everything temporary in the 19th century.

Bahia State Pavilion, Rio De Janeiro, 1908. Temporary.

The past is more futuristic than the present will ever be.

برأيي أن مبنى البرلمان المجري، هو أعظم وأجمل بناء شيده الإنسان.
ما رأيت مبنى أجمل من هذا قط.

Buffalo, NY used to look like this.

[AwakeAfter @LooyKurt]

It's a high school. And I dare you to look up the history of this building. You should be done with "HIS-STORY"

[OldWorldPlans @OldWorldPlans]

Photographed in 1890, this is Schloss Drachenburg above the Rhine at Königswinter, Germany, a castle that only looks old: it was built in just two years, from 1882 to 1884, for a banker, Stephan von Sarter, who made his fortune in Paris and never lived in it. Damaged in the war but restored, it still stands today.

Water Works Park Tower and pumping station, Detroit, Michigan, US, ca 1885.
Built from 1876 to 1879, demolished 1945. Perfectly normal...

[Spires Domes Pillars @SpireDomePillar]

The Pabst Brewing Company pavilion from the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. Again, we're told these structures were nothing more than wood and plaster yet this building now resides on the East side of the Pabst Mansion.

[Spires Domes Pillars @SpireDomePillar]

The Eastern Palace from the 1901 Glasgow worlds fair. Don't forget we're told all of these structures were temporary and expendable, built quicky and cheaply.

[The Conservative Alternative @OldeWorldOrder]

We need to bring Art Deco back.

[Tartarian Archives @tartanarchives]

I love old buildings. Paris 1889.

Aultman-Harter Mansion, Canton, United States (Built under United States: 1869–1869, Demolished: 1965).

Temporary structure from the world expo.
