This documentary:
New York
It's actually 8 parts, not 10. I was mistaken. But each disc is about 2 hours - it's very comprehensive. And fascinating. We have watched episodes 1-3.

yes, I love that series. Ric Burns really did make such a masterpiece with that series. It really helps me understand the city that I live in so much better than the tales I've been told and books that I've read. I keep thinking of buying it from PBS during their begathons.
I watched the original airing after 9/11 but before they completed the 8th episode. The last episode almost kills me when I watch it, especially when I watch the series from end to end, it's like a sad ending to a movie.
The best part though is that the tale isn't over and there's still more story to tell. Hopefully someone else will make another documentary that continues the story.
You should check out his Civil War series.
