Hoboken, New Jersey--"Naples on the Hudson" to some, a square mile of prime real
estate to others. Filmmaker Nora Jacobson spent eight years documenting Hoboken's
battles over gentrification, from boom in the '80s to bust in the '90s. This epic,
dramatially engrossing documentary features a real-life cast of long-time residents, newly
arrived Yuppies, tenants' organizers, real estate developers, street people, immigrants
from around the world, and local politicians.
