City of Water---
Two years in the making,
City of Water explores the aspirations of public officials,
environmentalists, academics, community activists, recreational boaters and everyday New Yorkers for a diverse, vibrant waterfront
at a time when the shoreline is changing faster than atany other time in New York's history. The documentary features interviews
with Deputy Mayor Daniel Doctoroff, US Representative Nydia Velazquez, MacArthur Fellow Majora Carter, author Phillip Lopate,
Sandy Hook Pilots' Captain Andrew McGovern and others, and includes footage from Jamaica Bay, the Brooklyn Navy Yard, and
many other places on the waterfront. To learn more about the film and watch a short trailer, visit
