In the Brooklyn district of Williamsburg some forty apartment towers are being built that will drastically change the face of the neighbourhood. Open House shows this process at work, focusing on how long-established structures are literally torn apart by outside developers capitalizing on a frenzied housing market, putting locals under pressure to sell out while the price is right.
