    Extreme Makeover: Plaza Theatre Edition
    Feb 27 2025

    If you've ever watched a building renovation show, you know there's a whole lot of work to rehabilitate an old structure to its original glory.

    That same labor intensive effort went into the restoration of the Plaza Theatre in Downtown El Paso.

    Gary Williams, the Vice President of Programs for the El Paso Community Foundation, and Neal Vogel, the Principal of Restoric, LLC in Chicago, join Lisa and Stephanie in the studio to talk about that work.

    The Plaza Classic Film Festival is July 17-27, 2025.

    The Plaza Classic Podcast is a production of the El Paso Community Foundation and is recorded on the El Paso Community College campus.
