Film Synopsis:

Downtown: A New American Dream was the first documentary film from the Carbon Trace Productions Team. The film’s director, Andrew R. Cline Ph.D., describes it as a bit of a nerd flick on the subject of New Urbanism and the re-imagining of urban centers across the US.  Many of the skills Carbon Trace learned in this film became the foundation for our signature style of documentary education that we continue to this day.
