Though urbanization created many social problems, reforms arose to adjust to the new lifestyles.

As shown, a factory is stationed in what was previously a forest. Also, the beginning of town is shown, creating more of an urban feeling. This mill, along with Lowell Mill, created opportunities for women, but unequal wages at the same time. ]]> 2018-11-26 02:07:18 UTC https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/307604013 https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/307605075 2018-11-26 02:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/307605075 sopdif211_1 https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/307748213 2018-11-26 13:26:43 UTC https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/307748213 https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/307750267 This painting shows a common port in New York City.

When they do, our cities will be better governed than they are, and the "irrepressible conflict" between rowdies and the established authorities will be less inconvenient than it is at present.

The temperance is the idea to ban alcohol due to its negative impact on society which ruins families and jobs. This excerpt highlights the power and influence of alcohol on men. It also calls for reforms in law and in the individual in order to adjust to this new problem during the Market Revolution. ]]> 2018-11-27 03:36:33 UTC https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/308109501 sopdif211_1 https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/308113479 As the economy grew during the Gilded Age, so did cities. Many people moved to the cities for higher wages, business, or, if they were wealthy, to build mansions. In these cities, there was a divide between the extremely wealthy and the poor. This divide was partially caused by urbanization. ]]> 2018-11-27 04:03:28 UTC https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/308113479 https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/308114418 To begin them with the monster intemperance, as he has many horns, let me take hold of him by one at a time, give it a powerful shake and pull, and thus find out his weakest and his strongest points.

When Immigrants moved to cities for higher wages, the population grew rapidly. Everyone was crowded together, and there were fewer resources. In the painting, there is only one building, one fire, and one horse. Factories and horses also caused pollution.

He watches them with tender, if somewhat fearsome, interest from the moment the hole is dug until the last Gothic waterspout is put in place.

In this painting, wealth is represented by glowing, gold lights and well-dressed people. The painting shows how money from businesses increased urbanization. The wealthy spent money on mansions, clothes, and entertainment, creating new jobs. They also used horse-drawn cabs, which was an efficient way to travel, and helped the horse industry. ]]> 2018-11-27 06:01:55 UTC https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/308127648 sopdif211_1 https://padlet.com/sopdif211_1/1iookduoq70g/wish/308129117 As an immigrant, Riis was familiar with living in a tenement.

Individualism will continue. But the millionaire will be but a trustee for the poor; entrusted for a season with a part of the increased wealth of the community, but administering it for the community far better than it did, or would have done, of itself. The best in minds will thus have reached a stage in the development of the race in which it is clearly seen that there is no mode of disposing of surplus wealth creditable to thoughtful and earnest men into whose hands it flows save by using it year-by-year for the general good.
