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.

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!

@saughs 2 жыл бұрын

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. 👍

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!

@lvettesonai Жыл бұрын

@@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.

I came across your channel and I loved the content! You're an excellent speaker and a great tour guide. KZfaq 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 KZfaqr 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 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.

@thewurm9177 2 жыл бұрын

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.
