CROSSROADS: Lowell -- A Boston 25 News in-depth report

LOWELL, Mass. -- Every community has a past, a present, and endless potential.

Lowell is a prime example. The city, perhaps best known as the birthplace of the industrial revolution, is at a crossroads.

Lowell became the model city for other industrial cities, and then a catastrophic economic depression.

The past has shaped Lowell’s present and its population, which includes dozens of cultures and ethnicities.

Boston 25 News reporter Stephanie Coueignoux talked to community members, historians and politicians to learn where the city is heading, and how everyone has a role to play in getting there. Watch her full report above.
