Please report the guard. If he’s speaking in such a threatening manner, what is he going to say/do to someone in a shitty position that’s maybe alone in life? It’s worrying that he’s so nice until he’s deeply nasty and threatening. Use this to stand up for people that might be able to stand up for themselves

Excellent point about how those guards will act with people trying to recover & build their lives up in a positive way. I hope the Hotel provides actual resources to help give opportunities to the people living there.

[@ambim9033]

I'm wondering if the guard who threatened him is the same whose clip was shown in this video. It's strange how he was being super nice to him then snapped after he had a confrontation with someone completely different. Dude even said he was a fan and watches his videos and what not, how absolutely weird.

[@DaniM30395]

If you look at the guard as he’s talking when he “threatens” him he’s giving a warning look like ‘dude the owner is breathing down my neck I ain’t got no choice’ but that’s just my opinion on the matter cause it feels like something else is going on behind the scenes that we weren’t shown/couldn’t see

[@ritasprinkle5098]

Yes. I was thinking the same thing. If he behaves like that on the camera (and what he said specifically is very concerning), then it is entirely probable that in different circumstances he would do things that are completely not acceptable. He should not be in working in the position.

The management involved is once again sketchy and I have a feeling they’re going to be preying on residents. If the grand opening was listed as public but you kick out the people most likely to expose you when you do bad, then they’re already up to something. For example, that is not low income housing, that’s a leech tank so those people can never get out of financial trouble. No one making under 24k a year can easily be able to pay a min of $900 a month to be in a dorm room

Limiting residence to 24,000 a year but charging 900-1200 a month sounds so predatory. If the residents are paying 50% of their income on rent, how are they supposed to save enough to move away from it, assuming if they get a job that pays higher they will no longer be allowed to live there. Sounds like anyone that lives there will be stuck in a cycle of paying them.

I think they are using this as a ploy to make it so tourists come, to see who still has interest in staying here...and as grim as this comes off..they are using those on skid row as beta testers....to see if the portals are still there. If they aren't....they may remarket it to the public again which brings the "for profit" part of their company into it. If it does still exist....then they can write it off as they went crazy in the hotel and they did the state a solid by cleaning up the streets of skid row, at least for the time being.

The interesting thing about adaptive reuse is that, specifically for the parts of the building from an earlier era that they're keeping the aesthetic of, since it is a historical landmark--the developers/property managers are not allowed to use materials that aren't the same as what was originally used for upkeep and repair purposes. I work for a property management company, and we own a building in the historic district of Sacramento, CA. Because this area of town dates back to the California Gold Rush, with the newest part of it having been rebuilt in the 1920s due to flooding, we have to find very specific types of brick and other materials that aren't what we would use in more modern buildings, in order to repair the facade. It ends up being more expensive to do that, so I'm surprised they're using a historical landmark like the Cecil for low-income housing.

You're obviously well schooled in exactly what's going on with that building. I see it happen all the time on the east coast. ITS ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. It's just another way for a private Corp to get paid bigtime from the government. You're a great guy Peet! Love your videos!

Omg can’t wait to see the compilation that’s going to be awesome as being a paranormal person my self . Been following you about the seesaw the whole time very interesting. I appreciate you doing what you did for a year.❤❤❤❤❤❤

I feel bad for you that you missed the ribbon ceremony 😔. That sucks there's always a problem with you and Cecil Hotel! I can't believe that the guard says that to you, that's ridiculous he should be fired! I have noticed lot of guards was picking on you not anybody else (in the past too) weird 🤔.

The guard isn’t daron I believe.

Peet, thanks so much for catching me up on this whole hotel Cecil stuff, I’ve been watching these hotel Cecil videos every day and if the hotel Cecil opens again. I’m gonna be across the street from you, lol 😆

1200 for one room doesn’t feel like a deal for low income people. I pay that less in rent for the main level of a house and I have 3 bedrooms and a huge kitchen.

[@notmyselfusee]

In LA, that’s cheap

[@RS-bn1ty]

From what I’ve heard from a friend, she pays that much and is in New Hampshire, so I feel it’s a normal price (also I feel if someone makes 24k a year it is affordable except for people who are disabled or unable to work) but where I live now it’s family owned and I get a huge discount but even so my neighbors pay about 700 or so a month for snow removal, trash, mowed yard and a 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of room. I get the “wow your apartment is so big” when a friend comes over hahah but yeah it sounds pretty normal to me from what my friends have said, also in the city it costs about that much as well in my state

[@megan893]

I pay 2k for a two bedroom apartment.. that's rent in LA for ya

[@josettebergeron]

I’m really digging your passion about this place. (I’m always entertained by your content.) I’m also interested in adaptive reuse to support and solve homelessness, so this is a great opportunity to experiment with renovation of buildings that have become problematic and no longer profitable. I’ll stay tuned!

[@maxiumgolf1]

@ 5:16, I respect you for doing what you had done, leaving was the best idea. Always follow your gut instincts and I ask that some of your viewers respectfully understand that backing you in support at the event would only stir the nest of disobedience creating further incentive to invoke wrong doing, as seen by the ceremonialists’. Let the other guy be, as you had, at this point look how disruptive he had become. That’s not what you are about and I am happy to have come across your channel and browse through your great content! Keep it up Peet!!

I find your approach respectful and appreciate that you take certain factors into consideration. Thank you for your interesting and insightful reporting on Cecil Hotel. Stumbled upon your page after seeing your "When time goes too fast" vid w/your lovely mom.

[@Blackwolffe097]

Hey so I've been following your videos for some time & Ive said in the past that a unnamed security guard let us in for a few hours It was that guard. Unfortunately we had similar experiences. At first he was hell cool & accepted the $500 we offered but things changed after about 2 hours. He approached us & said the police are on the way. When we asked why, he got belligerent & threaten to break our cameras.

[@Blackwolffe097]

At that point we spent about 2 hours already in the building so we decided it was time to leave anyway. After we walked out the back entrance, he said "If I see you guys around here again I'll bury you" He is definitely a sketchy dude.

[@bethnorrod5942]

Since its low income, market rent can be $900, but the person living there will only pay a percentage of that, based on income. A government entity, HUD, Urban/Rural Development etc; will pay the remainder of the rent. They can steadily raise the market value. So, I would say you're right. They're gonna make their money this way, mostly from the government. Its great that's it's become low income housing but, kind of sad that no one can just rent a room and ghost hunt for a while.

[@kekecom]

But you can make friends who will live there and let you in right?

[@AlexGarcia-vg1iq]

A lot of drugs and prostitutes! They have created a drug haven. All the junkies and drug dealers are excited 😆

[@fancifuldevices]

Jeez thank you for finally explaining this to me. I was like how tf does making this $150 housing or whatever make them recoup whatever?

[@bethnorrod5942]

@@kekecom sure. As long as you don't get banned from the premises for anything. Low income housing usually has strict rules. No alcohol, loud music, etc, limited number of visitors and anyone who stays over night more than X amount of days has to be added to the lease which can cause a rent increase or even disqualification. I'd say as long as no neighbors turned you in for disturbance, you should be able to visit regularly and explore.

[@bethnorrod5942]

@@AlexGarcia-vg1iq Depends greatly on who manages it. The low income housing I lived in and worked at for many years was really strict and it was a very quiet neighborhood. Most don't allow alcohol, loud music, etc, limited number of visitors, limited number of days for overnight guests, etc. It was really nice and quiet in my area, but across town in another neighborhood, operated by the same people as mine, but managed by someone else, it was a notorious party place.

[@eep0128]

WTF???? THAT is SOOOOO unprofessional of that guard!!! PLEASE tell me you DID report him?!? Peet, I absolutely adore you. I'm so sorry they treated you SO poorly. It actually concerns me that if they treat YOU (someone who truly admires the hotel) like that, HOW will they treat the ppl that will actually be staying there?! It's EXTREMELY concerning. SO much seems VERY sus about the owners... PLEASE keep us updated on everything!

The guard seems off. At first he was friendly and actually made good conversation with you then after some silence he turned into a different person. Could it be mental illness or maybe the other dude just pushed him too far and he has anger issues or maybe something spookier? Like possession?

[@jcb7936]

With Peet living across from the hotel I think it was best he was respectful of the event. It will make it easier to get future content than if he was rude.

[@TheWheelLifeChad]

I think the security guard said “that’s how you get your teeth pushed it” not directed toward you but, talking about the other person that was kicked out.

[@paulstephens4760]

Glad you didn’t get your teeth knocked in. I love you Peet❤

[@christinegonzalez1298]

Hear me out.. the guard did not threaten you. He saw speaking about the other guy. "That's how you get your teeth pushed in." Referring to the other guy's actions. "You're about to go viral". He meant because you were about to record him fighting the other guy.

[@PeetMontzingo]

omg.. it didn’t feel like that at all when i was there but i did think it was weird he switched so fast.. i hope that’s true. i really liked him until then. but if that’s true now i feel bad😩

I think he was saying "that's how you get your teeth pushed in" meaning that he was going to do that to the other guy videoing because of his attitude like "having an attitude like that is how you get your teeth pushed in.

[@Sapphire_Sword]

I'm thinking that MAYBE someone or something possessed that guard cause that thing doesn't want him here for what he did...I mean, if we're gonna see this from a spirit's perspective, seeing someone breaking and living in for the night **at your house** is like, "WTF ARE YOU DOING HERE-" and same goes to all of us who doesn't want some strangers living around for one hell of a reason. But if its PURELY from that guard then he needs his ass kicked out of that one job he got there. Unless you're possessed by a ghost, NO ONE HAS THE RIGHTS TO THREATENED A PERSON FOR A **RIDICULOUS** REASON!!
