The Christadora is a ‘very plain handsome boxy brick building’ in New York’s East Village. This building, the families within, tell the story of the city from the 1980s to the 2020s. From soaring crime to soaring house prices, from Reagan to Bush to Clinton to Bush again and then Obama, from the Plague to Lazarus Syndrome. Damian talks to activist, journalist and author of ‘Christadora’: Tim Murphy.

Recorded live in the Lancaster Ballroom at the Savoy Hotel.
