Description

This programme questions the success of the ‘New City’ of Craigavon, drawing on archive footage, and reports from a Tenant Liaison Officer.

Also features contributions from an expert panel and an informed, and at times passionate, studio audience from the area. Discussion ranges from strategic planning, public transport, schools and vandalism to urban identity, recreation and regeneration. On the way it visits some of Craigavon’s estates, the Civic Centre, Marlborough House, Craigavon Shopping Centre and the Craigavon Lakes.
