The Lost Waterfront
\n\n
Before waterfront redevelopment, and before waterfront\ndecay, New York's waterfront was a world of its own. As part of WFUV's new Strike\na Chord campaign, we look at that world--New York's longshoremen, organized\ncrime, and how it inspired a classic film. Our guest is James Fisher--his book "The Irish Waterfront and the Soul of the\nPort", is forthcoming from Cornell University press.
