I feel so proud to know my great uncle did the architecture for this hotel back in the 1800's. His name was Frederick Law Olmsted. You should look him up, he not only created this masterpeice, but many, many more.
@AmericanNinja85 I was there about 10 yrs ago, and the tour guide said the vanderbilts still come stay at the Biltmore. I could google it, but I know it is not usd as a Hotel.
I agree with you i know its not used as a hotel either i thougoht it was you that said it was a hotel but i might have gotten confused and that would be cool to be able to be the vanderbilt family and be able to stay there once in awhile !
@mcbdpb , Gloria Vanderbilt the mother of Anderson Cooper is 32 removed cousin,she is only a Vanderbilt by marriage! i noticed Anderson and Gloria like to state there Vanderbilts but Gloria has nothing to do with this house or the real Vanderbilts ! i was at Billtmore yesterday and asked.
@sn9696 try doing some research sometime before you type something so ridiculously stupid. Gloria Vanderbilt is the daughter of Reginald Claypoole Vanderbilt and his second wife Gloria Morgan. she is not a cousin nor is she a Vanderbilt by marriage. also learn the difference between there and they're. as far as Anderson Cooper is concerned he took his father's last name, not his mother's. the only thing u were correct about was that they don't have anything to do with the Biltmore estate.
@RomanJockMCO ,Gloria Morgan the mother of Gloria Vanderbilt was not a Vanderbilt ,this makes it a little confusing because there both named Gloria. If you read my comment i'm only going by what they told me at Biltmore! Maybe the real Vanderbilts know the truth, what the public is told is just a cover story,did you ever think of that ? By the way who are you the spelling police,i only use one "there" because i don't believe the same word should be spelled differently for different meaning!
@sn9696 Gloria Vanderbilt is the daughter of Reginald Claypoole Vanderbilt who in turn is the son of Cornelius Vanderbilt II, who in turn is the son of William Henry Vanderbilt, who in turn is the son of Cornelius Vanderbilt-the man who amassed the family fortune. u tell me if it is thru marriage? would u consider yourself descended from your great great grandfather or would u consider yourself thru marriage? btw the REAL Vanderbilts are not working at the Biltmore.
@RomanJockMCO --- thank you setting the little idot straight ..... Yes --- Gloria is the daughter of Reginal Claypoole Vanderbilt... , Gloria also inherited 5 MIL when her Dad died. ---
@mcbdpb no problem. i take offense when someone calls Florida a dump. I'm sorry that he/she didn't like it but in all major cities there will be good parts and bad. that and he/she really needs to learn how to use the English language correctly. they're, their, and there have completely different meanings and should be used accordingly. peace
@sn9696 no, i didn't. i'm more concerned with the euro debt crisis, the possible collapse of the euro, and the repercussions that it will have on global markets/economies to be concerned on what some men's health article says about fl cities. so what, i like it here and many other people do too. if people don't like where they live they can MOVE. fifty states to choose from. btw where do u live? where does it rank on the list?
@mcbdpb yeah negative, opinionated, and quite ignorant. from his arguments i doubt he even graduated high school. i never thought i would ever hear someone call the English language "wrong". though i actually pity him somewhat. sad to see such a pathetic creature. i once worked with someone like him. he could never understand why no one wanted to hang out with him outside of work, or even at work.
@RomanJockMCO -- Hi -- I think sn9696 is not all "there" ... he sounds very conflicted, and angry... seriously I think he does need some counseling. Also, I do know what you mean about working with "negative people" ... they are like vampires..they suck the life out of you.
@RomanJockMCO -- I just thought of something--- sn9696 says all the "good People" have moved out of South Florida, is he saying that the large Latino population in South Florida are "bad people" ? I smell a hint of RACISM !!
@RomanJockMCO ,im not negative,i was trying to comment to "mcbdpb" on florida.When i say florida is a dump im talking about south florida,doen't matter who you hang out with in south florida,all the good people have moved out !!!!!!!!! In your world you believe in meds like Prozac,asprin etc, i would never put those poisons in my body !
@sn9696 sorry u feel that way about south florida but i don't share your sentiments. i have friends who live in south florida whose homes range in price from $2.5 million to just over $11 million and i seriously doubt you can call those "dumps". as with any city there are nice areas and others that are quite impoverished. from your arguements it doesn't sound like we have the same socio-economic circles. If Miami had a good amusement park I'd move there in a heartbeat. cont...
@sn9696 i'm not sure where your pill popper accusation comes into play but i will run with it. first though i would like to know if you are immunized and had your booster shots? if you have children have they as well? why would u put these "toxins" in your body but not an asprin? there are reasons why the life expectancy rate has increased over 75% in this country. if i have a bad headache i have no problem taking a tylenol. cont....
@sn9696 i'm not one to run to the pharmacy for the latest but if there ever is a true need for me to take medication i don't have a problem with it. i know a couple people who are hiv positive and without their meds they would be dead. i know one person who is bi-polar and tried to commit suicide several times before getting on lithium. i refuse to smoke and prefer to hang out with nonsmokers because it destroys your body. however if someone wants to im not gonna judge him.
@sn9696---- what a ridiculous, silly, and immature thing to say that "all the good people have moved out" -- do realize how really crazy you sound ? I bet you have had at least one session with either a counselor or psychiatrist. I am in the field --- has anyone told you about borderline disorders.
@sn9696 -- well, if you need an antidepressant, and you don't take it,-- the results are serious,---- some people have really hurt themselves when depressed , if they are not taking their medications... this is a very serious situation...
@sn9696 -- You are saying South Florida is a dump, and "ALL THE GOOD PEOPLE", have moved out ..... you do know that South Florida is populated with Latinos, I am Cuban are you saying I am not a "Good Person".. Listen sweetie, I have a College degree, and own my own home,and I have traveled to places you might not ever go.
and, yes, Gloria Morgan was not a Vanderbilt but her husband was. Their daughter was named after her mother. It is common for parents name their children after one family member or another. No I'm not the spelling police but it is a little distracting when someone cannot even discern between there and they're. It makes someone look ignorant.
@sn9696 --- well look at you --- changing the use of the English Language... you definitely have not attended college .... this explains the vast ignorance.
@mcbdpb ,Sometimes the English Language is wrong so i changes it ! Also some of the smartest people i know never went to college ! College is a scam,just regurgitate what you read in a text book that some company probably owned by the college put together. This is why most companys are failing,no real life experience... Oh my,college grads are so programed by the system,so hard to wake them up !
@sn9696 there is an adverb, their is a pronoun, and they're is a contraction of the plural pronoun, they, and the verb, are. these are completely different words and have completely different meanings. right and write sound the same but i hardly doubt you would interchange these. as far as college is concerned it depends on what you make of it. i seriously doubt any of your non college educated friends can build a rocket and land on the moon. wait, college grads did that!
@mcbdpb thanks. as for sn9696 i have made my points. maybe he is messed up or mad at the world. i dont know and really it is his business. im sorry he feels so negatively about fla but i like it here, and it sounds as if u do too. can't wait to ride cheetah hunt again! peace out.
@RomanJockMCO ,or maybe the Vanderbilts are embarrassed from Gloria Vanderbilt because she is so screwd up !! Married,divorce,drugs,son jumping out a window,other gay son etc etc !!
@sn9696 ----- you are so Silly .. Gloria is respected for her accomplishments , she started the Gloria Vanderbilt jean brand, she suffered may losses in business, and in her personal life , but she is still a lady. Her son Anderson , is loved, whether he is Gay or not. It seems you have a problem with gay people, not only do you get your facts wrong, you are a prejudice nasty person.
@mcbdpb ,your so predictable,i knew you would comment on the gay thing. i don't have a problem with gays but society needs to get to the bottom of this genetic abnormality! Gloria is respected by some rich snobs,i don't care how much money she has,she is a failure in my book. The reason why Gloria has so many problems she just went around partying her whole life spending daddy's money. If dada didn't have money she would be trailer trash ! Anderson will say or do anything the system tells him!
@1christoferdrewfan ---- no way florida is where you party... Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Daytona, Islands of Adventure...... and all the cool beaches, I fell off many a beach bar stool ...wow good times Haha ... !!
@1christoferdrewfan ,Most of florida is a dump, Miami, Fort and Lauderdale are the worst, its full of rude jealous pill poppers with no jobs,They go out of there way to makesure you have a bad day, if the criminals don't get you the cops will !!
@mcbdpb lol..todays yahoo news- Tampa Bay city is consideredone of the saddest placed to live in America.
The majority of Florida cities are the saddest places to live among the United States,according to a Men’s Health study published Monday.
Based on suicide rates, unemployment rates, patients on antidepressants and people who admit to depression, Men’s Health came up with a list of 100 cities ranging from the happiest to the saddest.
@sn9696 --- who cares what" Men's Health" wrote about Tampa Bay -- Nobody is walking around taking a poll on depression on the beach , or while riding on the Cheetah in Bush Gardens, or while sipping on a Mojito In Ybor City ..... The weather here today was great ....
I love that so many ppl visit and appreciate all that is Biltmore and so many homes like her. Only thing that bothers me is that no one is showing up in carriages and in flowing gowns and tall hats. Seem like a 'dressing down' with ppl in shorts and khakis. Know what I mean?
