The South Mall Project: Hope or Hoax? (1962, special)

|

"On the evening of Saturday, July 14, 1962β€”just days after the first South Mall demolitionβ€”WRGB TV, Channel Six, aired a half-hour documentary called The South Mall Project: Hoax or Hope? We found what we think is the only extant copy of the documentary in the papers of Grant Van Patten at University of Albany’s Special Collections department. Grant produced and directed it, and we had the good fortune to interview him at his home in Clifton Park in the summer of 2016. We enjoyed spending time with him and were sorry to learn that he died earlier this year."
