Or nyc in 1913?
Noah Fisher
High end cameras could provide incredible resolution. Linked is a picture of Homestead, Pennsylvania (of Carnegie Steel and Homestead Riots fame) in 1910, made from 4 glass plate pictures. Incredibly crisp and clean. I live picking out all the details. That whole website, Shorpy, is a treasure trove of great old photos.

Man even 1930's shantytowns had a certain charm to them. All those comfy homes with stoves, a smokestack billowing out toxic fumes onto unsuspecting people, giving them lung cancer, looking like beautiful effervescent shadows onto the Seattle grey of a morning sky, the bustling city promise beckoning you on, as you fight to escape working on your shitty railroad house any longer.
Leo Gomez
Still cleaner than a modern black neighborhood.
Adam Gutierrez
Despite it being a shanty town its pretty well kept up.
People took pride in their living arrangements.

Angel Bailey

Everywhere you went, it was white
The shitskins lived elsewhere..

Hats look completely idiotic if you aren't wearing a suit to go with it, though - and nobody wears suits in everyday life anymore.
Ryder Gutierrez
SEMI-RARE
Camden Rivera

Jack Collins
well you wouldnt wear a le fedora in the modern age when you could wear bucket hats or sun hats. that would make more sense

>Steeplechase Park
Holy shit I've been there, it's a baseball park for some shitty farm team that the Mets own
Fun fact, Trump's dad bought the land in the 60's and was going to turn it into a high rise but the city wouldn't change the zoning laws because they're jews so he rented it out to a guy named Kaufman who spent lots of his fortune making it an amusement park again with lots of the old rides.
Trump sold it to the city when he realized he would never get to build homes there but he made sure to put a clause in the sale that forced the city to rent the area out to Kaufman for a reduced price(I think it was like 1/4th of what other people were paying I forget)
Other amusement park owners near there got buttmad and bitched until in the 80's they decided to not continue to rent to Kaufman anymore.
Only thing left there from the original Steeplechase Park is the parachute ride which is the big red cellphone tower looking thing if you ever go or look at pictures(built in 1903)
Thomas Richardson
That black shack in the middle that the guy is standing in front of looks comfy as fuck.
Connor Martinez
it wasn't. that's the point. it was basically an entirely different world.
Wyatt Lewis
Post depression American shanty towns were superior to current Indian and African slums, or South American favelas.
