New York Tenements were a very disturbing place o live. The picture above shows the back view of one tenement looking on to other tenements around it. The clothing lines are all over the place and they give the entire image a very cluttered feeling. The houses are all made from wood which looks old and rotten. The roofs are just pilled wood. Winter must have been very hard because they did not even have fire places. Not everything in the big cities of America was luxuries, and the New York Tenements are a perfect example.
