Synopsis
Excerpt from Housing Reform: A Hand-Book for Practical Use in American Cities
There is nothing inherently objectionable in the tenement as a type of city dwelling; that is, in a multiple house intended to be occupied by three or more families living independently. The objection lies in permitting them to be built without proper regulation. It is the wellnigh universal form in many European cities. It is likely to be increasingly the form in American cities.
