This is one of the best videos I've seen about Milwaukee. You did research on history and architecture. You also have an energetic enthusiastic personality.
This is probably the best video about Milwaukee I've ever seen, and I say that as a Milwaukee local.
Had no idea Milwaukee is such a great city! its like a mini Chicago without the L, cool seeing the historic architecture there in brew city, might visit next summer!
Great way to put it bro! They definitely have a lot of historic architecture, more than I could cover in this one film but I'll be back for sure! Hope you get to visit next year 😎
I’m just 40 minutes south of Milwaukee and about an 1.3 hours from Chicago so i can enjoy both cities.
Milwaukee used to have a great street car system. But it was run by Wisconsin Electric Power Company. Due to legal reasons they had to divest themselves of it. Replaced by buses. Buses do have one advantage. Greater route flexibility.
How about the hop😂😂 total flop@@mpetersen6

Probably a question of routing and lack of commercial destinations. The best transit decision Milwaukee has made in the last 50 years is the Freeway Flyers. One thing l do wish would have gone through was to initiate light rail from Kenosha thru Racine and into downtown Milwaukee.
planning a trip to Milwaukee from Sydney Australia, this video was really informative and entertaining!
Milwaukee is a great city so many great things to do summer is even more fun with Music festival Summer fest I hope you have a wonderful time enjoy
Mader’s is overrated, but has survived.
Did u come here? Thoughts?
Awesome! Milwaukee rules, lived there my whole life and recently moved to Chicago (watched ur vids for that too). I was just in MKE showing my friend from Germany around. Can’t imagine visiting and not having a few beers everywhere you go.
Next time you gotta go a little further south to bay view if you haven’t already! Love the vids.
Definitely want to check out Bay View next time, thanks for the recommendation!
I love living in Milwaukee. I once lived down the street from Laverne & Shirley, those were some Happy Days!!!
😂
Luis, thanks for this awesome overview! I’ve seen a couple of travel videos on Milwaukee and I enjoyed yours the most. I look forward to visiting this beautiful city someday!
I grew up in Lincoln village from 65 to 84. You have represented Milwaukee very well. You make me want to go back and visit.
I've been to Milwaukee many times, mainly to watch the Cubs @ Miller Park (formerly known as) and Fiserv forum (steep walkways in the nosebleeds) but highly recommend going to Lakefront Brewery, their downtown is very similar to Chicago's.
Also, remember going to this place called Cubanitas, it was a late night, had empanadas and sangria- spot was cozy! Just a suggestion. Great video!
Visiting Chicago and Milwaukee next week. Thank you for all of your amazing and helpful content!! Your personality really shines through in these videos
Glad to hear, thanks so much!! 💯
Nice! Really well done video… some other options for future visits, depending on the weather:
-Bradford Beach
-Bay View (South Shore Park terrace/beer garden, restaurants/shops on Kinnickinnic, etc)
-Milwaukee County Zoo
-Milwaukee Public Museum
-Custard at Leon’s, Kopps, or Gilles
-The Rave/Eagles Club
-River Kayaking or River/Lake cruise
-Pedal Tavern through the Third Ward
-Holy Hill (further out, but very cool, especially in fall)
Probably missing more, but just some things from my personal list. 👍
+1 for Kopps custard!
The baseball studio !!! American Family Field the brewers
My old man is from cudahay and grew up in Milwaukee, met my German mom after they both studied architecture at UWM. Im born in Hamburg Germany as my parents both moved over here in the 90s but I did live in Milwaukee for 4 years age 5-9 and never forgot the magic of Kopps Custard!!! Lived in Whitefishbay at the time and there was a Kopps right around the corner, I can still taste that vanilla cookie dough!
The milwaukee public museum and zoo are so good! Also Kopps omg!
@@chris040hhit's still there👍🏼
Glad to see your channel growing! These cities' tourism boards need to be sponsoring you because I wanna go everywhere you recommend! Great job as always. You fit so much information into a brief video.
Nice video. I lived in Milwaukee for 25 years and didn't know most of these fun little facts.
As a student at UW Milwaukee I thought this was a great video! I think that Bradford Beach and Oak Leaf Trail/Hank Aaron Trail are fun outdoor things to do
My hometown!! I love going home. The food, the festivals and art scene. A great place on a great lake! My school field trips growing up were amazing!! Nothing like BrewTown.
How is Milwaukee for hard-working black people? Is it more mellow than Chicago?
@@slickwilly6868 I grew up in a hard-working middle class family. Dad owned his own business and my aunts and uncles families had good lives, working hard and raising family. In my 20s (in the 90s) I worked for a top airline based out of Milwaukee. So, I didn't know too much negative. - on the flip side, Milwaukee these days....makes it very hard for some black people to have good housing and a good living. Which is sad.
@@slickwilly6868 I find Milwaukee similar to Chicago.
Great video on Milwaukee. I would be interested in seeing information on neighbor hoods. I’m contemplating moving to Milwaukee year or two.
Will there be a Milwaukee food tour video? :)
Great content! Moved to Milwaukee from nyc and i love it here ❤️
Is it safe for living?🤷🏽♀️
You did an awesome job on this video! Very articulate and seemed to be really knowledgeable...Nice to see my hometown so well represented.
Next visit should be during Summerfest or one of the other weekly festivals. Thanks for the great reviews.
Home if the ethnic festivals ‼️
Great video of my city! Next time check out Saint Kate Hotel, Walker’s Point Neighborhood and Zocalo Food Truck Park.
I came across your channel and I loved the content! You're an excellent speaker and a great tour guide. RUclips is doing itself a disservice by not promoting your videos, with your talent, you should have hundreds of thousands of subscribers. I have never seen a RUclipsr who provides so much detail about a city's past, architectural marvels, museums, breweries, hotels, places to eat and enjoy the city. P.S. Cities across the US should hire you to be their spokesperson, you did an awesome job with this city. Looking forward to watching the rest of your videos.
I Love the video thank you
Looks like a lovely place
I hope I get to visit some day
Nice video 😊
Subbed 👍
Great video thanks for putting it out. I recommend the downtown marketplace and the restaurant cafe Benelux. I got a little distracted with all the different style editing but better than anything I’ve put out so thank you.
Production quality was on point 💯 Keep it up bro
Thanks brotha, looking forward to creating more Milwaukee content down the road!
I’ve livid south of Milwaukee for over 20 years and I’m excited to go visit some of the places you talked about. Also I’m subscribing to your channel great content. Thank you be blessed!
Great video! I'm glad you covered the transit situation there. We're planning on going soon.
Thanks bro! The Hop streetcar is a lot of fun to ride and it's free. For the buses, you have to download an app and buy ride passes through it - it's called Ride MCTS 🚍
@@LuisGustoChicago got it. thanks!
I agree with other commentators to visit during one of the ethnic festivals in the summer, and/or Summerfest if you like music. Bryant's is classic and now we have the Public Market as well. Great job on the video!
Amazing video of my hometown. Thank you!
Great job promoting our city!
Thank you!
dude. best informative and entertaining video on a city PERIOD, let alone milwaukee. keep it up
Love it man! Saw this now! If you make it to Madtown, that would be awesome! Good videos
So much valuable information. You have sold me on making a trip!!
You two should do a little video on the Bayview neighborhood. It's just south over the Hoan Bridge.
Hopefully one day 😎🙏
@@LuisGustoChicago I know you would love it❤️🙏
Loved it. Bay View neighborhood is dope and an absolute must next time. Check out Odd Duck, and the South Shore beer garden nestled right along the lakefront. Great setting
That was a really fun and informative video, thank you for making it!
Tremendous job love the way that not only does the waterfront and the history and architecture get explain so much more in this video. Love the way it all gets explained love the great lakes especially the western ones. Go Wisconsin.
Amazing amazing video! I was studying at Marquette University and your video just make me back to this beautiful town again!
Thank you so much! I've really enjoyed my visits to Milwaukee and am happy this production brought back good memories 😎
Well researched, good coverage. Liked the architecture stuff.
Going to visit Milwaukee again soon. Looking forward to seeing the Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory! :)
I didn't get to see the Conservatory in 2019, so happy we visited this time! 🌴
I would love to see you guys do a video of Cedarburg Wisconsin! It's about a 20-30 min drive north west of Milwaukee and it is cute as hell! I would recommend going during a festival like Strawberry or Wine and Harvest fest but I really think you would enjoy it there. :)
I love cedarburg and waterford
That was an excellent review of my old home town. A lot of people have migrated to Milwaukee from Chicagoland because it has a similar feel at much reduced cost.
Great job on this video. Your history of my hometown was very interesting.
Great video! Certainly makes me want to visit.
Do another story on Neighborhoods on all the Neighborhoods in the Far Northwest side of Milwaukee!
Oh no don’t do that,I seen this video like huh?? I grew up on 39th vliet and I never seen it represented like this video did .i been in Ohio now 7years I had to go…
Nice video. Best wishes from Serbia/Europe.
Excellent overview of Milwaukee! While many similarities to Chicago also a very distinct feel. Would love to see neighborhood overview of Bay View, Riverwest, Lower East side and upper east side. Much like Chicago, the draw of Milwaukee for me is really the neighborhood not so much the downtown
Some items for next time?:
- Water Street
- Beach Volleyball
- Yacht Clubs
- Milwaukee Zoo
- Beer Gardens
- October Fest at Heidelberg Park
- Germanfest
- Irishfest
- Italianfest
- Indian Summer
- Mexican fest
Well done Luis! Your historical backstories were great and I appreciate the variety of topics you both covered. I've lived here over 50 years now and you even taught me some new things! Some suggestions for next time; The Safe House, Harley Davidson Museum, Summerfest, Shaker's Ghost tour, to name a few...
great video well made!
First rate production! Love when you do these with your better half.
Thanks so much Joanne!! 🙌🏼
Loved the mansion…wow!!
It is a beauty...in 2019 we didn't get a chance to take a tour, so glad we did it this time
Great video, thanks
Minute and a half in, Amtrak Hiawatha from Chicago, bus and streetcar, 1000 percent better than "oh it's such a walkable city, I didn't even see the streetcar" from another youtuber with a Milwaukee vid.
Wow thank you for the video. We moved to the Milwaukee area a little over 2 years ago and love it here. Originally from Michigan. We're still exploring and have been to a few things so far. Taking the ferry to Michigan this weekend to visit family and want to take the train to Chicago this year also. Again thank you
Awesome video
great content! thank you
Definitely visit St Josephat’s! One of the most beautiful churches in the country!
He did ....🤔🤔
Metro market downtown is cool to shop at
Those 11 low tops are dope bro. I see you lol!
Looking to buy some #gustogang merch! Love this video and all your review videos!
Nice review
Great video. Thank you!
Fantastic job
Thanks Benjamin!
Gotta mention the Milwaukee County Zoo. One of the best zoos in the country!
Next time we'll check it out 🦒
No, The San Diego Zoo is best zoo in the country and it’s not even close
@@matthewgeddis8870he said one of the best
@@matthewgeddis8870he didn't say the best he said one of....
Yep the scooters r to b on the streer not the sidewalks
If u think is very interesting one should check out "The Making of Milwaukee" as one sees here its a crying shame what Milwaukee use to be in the beginning and how it came to be one of the most manufacturer capital of the Great Lake Region,
still a great place although I remember as some would say in the good old days in the 70's
Would like to see more in the separate neighborhoods
🇵🇷
And yes more on architectural content...
I wonder when are you going to Dallas Texas?
[Gosh Dang!!!!]
One day 🤠
I live in Milwaukee 😅
I agree with you so much about the protected bike lanes. They need to expand the bike lanes and build more protect street area for the bikers. The drivers in Milwauke are craaaazy and way worse than Chicago. People blow red lights all the damn time like it's no big deal. That's why a lot of people ride the limes and their bikes on the sidewalks.
Finally someone calls out the drivers here! I moved to downtown Milwaukee from L.A. in '19 and I am loving the walkability of the city, but I find the freakishly aggressive driving, especially on the freeways, absolutely terrifying! Wisconsinites blame Illinois drivers for everything, but it seems all midwest drivers are on a death wish...
I believe if Milwaukee had 1 or 2 really tall skyscrapers it could compete with Dallas and San Diego and would be bigger than Minneapolis and Denver.Milwaukee is already a known u.s. major city.All 5 of those are on the major cities list.Because I met somebody from Milwaukee actually he lived outside of Milwaukee.Any ways we were in Houston and he told me that Houston ain't too much bigger than Milwaukee.Thats what he said.
I'm from Chicago and love my city. But if I could live in milwaukee I would but because of my job I have to live in chicago.
I love both cities much love from Milwaukee
Luis, where r u from? Did u use to live here in Chicago?
67°? OMG
I relocated to Chicago from Milwaukee.
I live in Chicago but enjoy traveling to Milwaukee!
@@LuisGustoChicago Oh ok. Yeah I found out later (from your Palmer House video) that u were from here. I’ll be riding the Hawaitha back out wk after next, to go over there on a Biz trip.
Thx U for your response. Happy Holidays.
Luis solid video as I always brother. 🫡 From a fellow Chicagoan. Milwaukee is a cool city. Might even leave Chicago for it 🔜.
I dont believe us bank is the tallest anymore...
Thqt mansion ia for sure haunted.
1 did you like how the Milwaukee River smelled
2 you didn't drive from Chicago the ride is only like an hour
3 do a deep dive on the neighborhoods
I’ve always heard the rumor that milwaukee got it’s name from one of native tribes? meaning stinky river.😂
