Over time, many buildings, places, structures, and other creations have been built, renovated, and destroyed due to many reasons. These days, many of the buildings being built are tall, modern, and sleek in design. Once upon a time, though, buildings were regal and bold. There were huge castles with pillars and towers, on them. There were brick roads, arches, and homes that looked like they belonged to royal families. Old architecture was impressive and stunning to see.

Unfortunately, there are so many homes and buildings built in the past that have been demolished or renovated to the point of looking so different. It's sad to see how some historically amazing buildings have altered, but it is interesting to look back on them.

From old skyscrapers to town halls to family homes, here are some buildings and structures that were built in the 1800s and early 1900s that are no longer around, but have been captured on film to be remembered forever.
