In 1997, Seattle voters approved a monorail transit system to be built across the city. Beginning as a cab driver’s dream and growing into a major civic project, this was on track to become one of the largest systems of its kind in the world. But shortly before breaking ground in 2005, the project collapsed in on itself. This documentary tells the story of how Seattle ended up in this unusual position, and why the city’s dream never got off the ground.
