During the many times of poverty, the tenements were buildings in which anyone could afford, but were very low quality building. These buildings housed many people in a single building. These areas were also very commonly filled with poor people, who in return, lived very unhealthy life styles. This picture describes the tenements in a very particular way that I felt necessary because it shows how low quality even the daily necessities were. This toilet is just a box with a hole cut in it that would be shared by everyone in a building. This made it easy for disease to spread, and shows how low quality these tenements were.
