Hey this Gregory the guy who's in your video restoring the building. Very cool. If you're back this way sometime let's meet up and explore this place a little more in depth. The building developer would like to show you around and take you to a baseball game and then back around to some of the more famous spots you missed. Thanks again for posting me in your video. Safe travels 🙏

Here's another flight attendant in your comments. Downtown El Paso is one of my favorite overnights. Safe, clean, peaceful, and great food. I love it because I always feel safe compared to big cities and other small towns. The people are all so friendly. it's just a lovely experience being in El Paso.

As a guy from Minnesota who went to school in Wisconsin and now lives in El Paso, it is like another country. Go Miners.

As a Texan that lived in New Mexico for a couple of years - El Paso is part US, part Mexico, part New Mexico, part Texas - makes it really unique

My wife and I are El Paso implants from Boston, MA. The military brought us to Fort Bliss multiple times over the last 30 years or so. During every tour here the local people embraced and adopted us. This town has treated us so well we decided to make it our home. No regrets!! Thanks for visiting.

El paso is simply one of those cities you can’t compare to any other. Not because it’s better or worse, simply because it’s unique.

One of the BEST things I like about Peter's videos is that he doesn't just go to a random location and just start filming. He actually takes the time to RESEARCH the history of each destination, and then gives us a lesson on the culture there. Awesome blueprint! Always interesting!!

Grew up in El Paso, moved to Houston in 2006. I had it with Houston, it's traffic, crime, and stress, ready to go back.
