S38E05 Emergent City

The community of Sunset Park in Brooklyn grapples with escalating housing costs, a history steeped in environmental injustice, and the decline of the industrial work that once supported its residents. Tension escalates when a multinational developer acquires a large industrial site by the waterfront, intending to transform it into an "innovation district." This sparks a fierce conflict over the neighborhood's future and the broader implications for New York City as a whole.
