Breaking New Ground

Robert Hartwell took a picture of himself in front of his new home, posted it on the internet, and his life changed forever. At a time when the world needed hope, Robert shared a vision of what could be achieved; a gay black man had offered new possibilities and little did Robert know, new challenges. This show will test his drive to live his dream of transforming a 200-year-old house with a complicated history into his new home filled with love. This series is about his journey as it celebrates resilience and those who came before him. Uplifting, transformative, and timely: this series brings a new meaning to the home renovation “reveal.” It’s a renovation story 200 years in the making.
