City of Hope examines the inner machinations of city development and governance through the points of view of various people including building owner Joe Rinaldi (Lo Bianco), who is under pressure to set his own buildings on fire in order to speed inner city gentrification. He and his son, Nick (Spano) are among those who are caught up in under the table dealmaking.
