Describe/comment on a Jacob Riis photo. "In a Seven- Cent Lodging- House"


This is one of Jacob Riis photo that describes how the immagrants living condition were. They did not sleep comfortable because this exactly what their bunks looked like. They had to sleep on top of each other and it was no space. Can you imagine being in a cramped up room? No privacy or space. Its not like they had a bed, they had to sleep on a sheet, if I'm not mistaking. The room is flithy so they did not experienced a clean surrounding. They did not make a good amount of money so they had to get what they could afford. The homes could of been a little better to the point they could of lived comfortably.
