Set in 1970s Manhattan, a thirteen-year-old boy named Griffin Watts discovers his estranged father's secretive business of salvaging architectural sculptures from the city's decaying buildings. As he climbs the façades of tenements and skyscrapers, Griffin encounters intricate gargoyles and mythical figures, remnants of a bygone era created by immigrant artisans. This journey not only connects him with his father's world but also highlights the tension between urban renewal and the preservation of cultural heritage.
