Come for the Giant locations, stay for the east-coast-art-meets-Texas collision. The CLUI’s report on Marfa covers everything in detail.
The Hotel Paisano is pretty swoonworthy.
The border patrol blimp (a.k.a. “tethered aerostat radar system“) west of town on US-90 is kinda unsettling to drive up on in the middle of the night.
MARFA USED TO BE THAT SMALL TOWN WHERE EVERYONE KNEW EVERYONE WE NEVER LOCKED OUR DOORS THERE WAS NO CRIME TO SPEAK OF. BUT NOW WITH ALL THESE OUTSIDERS, ARTSIES AND JUST STRANGE FOLK ITS NOT THE SAME. REALLY IS A SHAME AND KIND OF SAD!!
