Description














JHK and Duncan celebrate the Fourth of July by touring Uncle Sam's
neighborhood. They stroll down Second Street in Troy NY, admiring the 19th
century architecture along the way. Destinations include: Russell Sage College,
the county court house and one of only two privately owned and maintained
residential green squares in New York state (the other is the famous Gramercy
Park in Manhattan). They speak to some workers laying a stone street by hand,
and explore the alley in an exclusive neighborhood. Sponsor: PostCarbon.org
