Review of RN Documentary: From Harbor to Hotspot

Here’s a fun and informative tour of the Eastern Docklands development. The producer’s approach is casual, and there’s lots of on-site tape as she’s motored around the waterways, plus interesting tape from various professional types. The American movement to reclaim harbor-side land, on coasts and by lakes, for living/recreational/public space use is well underway. This would make a good fit with a half-hour on American coastal or industrial redevelopment.
