Most people can only fantasize about someday creating their perfect island getaway. In spring and summer of 1996, we were able to bring viewers along as we escaped to the charming New England island of Nantucket, where we helped Bostonians Craig and Kathy McGraw Bentley turn their folk-style Victorian into a year-round retreat. We were drawn to Nantucket both to cover a challenging renovation project and to tell the story of a seaside paradise preserved, but fighting to hold on to its historic character. A building boom has turned this tiny island into a microcosm of the mainland. It is grappling with all of the quality-of-life issues that larger communities across the country are facing—traffic congestion, runaway real estate prices, historic preservation and zoning versus development, land use versus environmental protection, and what to do with a landfill that's reached capacity—but, given the island's size, these battles seem all the more intense.
