As Harry travels he explores the effects of relentless development on the environment, the city’s infrastructure, and the social fabric of its communities. By weaving together Perspectives from environmental, anthropological, Indigenous, developer, residential, and government viewpoints- The World’s Longest City uncovers the hidden costs of continuous expansion.
