Previously, only a trailer was available on YouTube, after the film made the rounds on local public television in 2009. The film is one of a three-part series, also including Portland: Quest for a Livable City and Phoenix: The Urban Desert. The Lincoln Institute of Land Policy promises that eventually all three films will be available to stream in full.
