7th Street — Plot

Prepare for a unique glimpse into the seismic impact of gentrification on a neighborhood in New York City's East Village -- Alphabet City, which was once known as the drug capital of the East coast. But this incisive documentary doesn't just explore one block in Manhattan; it's also about neighborhoods and communities all over the world where progress sometimes comes at the expense of richness of character and diversity.
