See the world premiere of “Managed Retreat” at the closing night of Rooftop Films. “Managed Retreat” is a short documentary by Nathan Kensinger that creates an observational portrait of the three New York City neighborhoods being demolished and returned to nature as part of the city’s first ‘managed retreat’ from rising sea levels. The film follows the process of retreat over the course of five seasons in three communities located on the coast of Staten Island.

Tour the industrial raw spaces and renovations at Kearny Point, a former Navy Yard on our Untapped Cities Insider Tour. During World War I and II, Kearny Point was once one of the world’s most prolific shipyards when it operated as the Federal Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. Today, Hugo Neu is transforming the 130-acre industrial complex into a new mixed-use, sustainable waterfront destination – one that embraces the site’s history and provides opportunities for the businesses of the new economy.
