Abstract
An immense number of small (apartments) occupied by the poor classes… are of the most superficial character…(They) are erected with the rapidity that astonishes persons who are unacquainted with (them). … they are built back to back; without (through) ventilation … and, like a honeycomb, every particle of space is occupied. … Every question of convenience, or of common decency, seems scarified to the one consideration of getting the largest possible return for the money invested.
