Why Does Pine Bluff Have So Many Abandoned Houses? | Pine Bluff Series Episode 1
Welcome to Episode One of our Pine Bluff series! In this video, we investigate the reasons ...behind the numerous abandoned houses in Pine Bluff and the drastic decline in its population.

UPDATE: What REALLY Happened to America's Fastest Shrinking City?
Since we have published the Trailer, we have had a lot a questions and responses. Byron Tate of the Pine Bluff Commercial Interviewed me and asked a lot of the same questions about my intentions behind this series and why I am making it.Â
Â
My goal with this series is that I cover what lead to the decline of Pine Bluff and what’s being done to make a comeback. The city has already recovered from the days of the bricks falling into Main Street, but the story is still going.
