Advantages :
Services for the health, safety
and convenience of the urban
population advanced .

Glorification of the industrial


system and the fruits of its
newborn activity blinded
people to the ruin and havoc
spreading across the urban
community.

Disadvantages:
Many of the systems of public
health and safety that arose in
the 19th century still are in
use.they are obsolete.
Their continued use and the
consequent difficulties with
sewage and solid waste
disposal are reflections of

CITY AND FACTORY


TOWN
The steam railroad extended its
rails from raw products to the
factory , and to the cities of
consumers all over the land.
Every amenity of urban life was
sacrificed to the requirements of
industrial production.
Railroads and ships joined at the
factories , and the waterfront
became the industrial core of the
city.

CITY AND
FACTORY
TOWN
The impact
of industrial revolution
was first felt in England the new
industrial economy brought with it
greater exploitation of the poor and
with that the new slums.
What could be called mechanical
slums , row upon row of crowded
workers houses in the shadow of the
factory, were added to the traditional
slums .
The degraded environment of the
factory town hung like a cloud over
urban life for the next century and a

Among the deplorable slums


of he 19th century factory
town in England , the 2
storey row house
predominated , stretching in
long rows with small
backyards and narrow
streets.
The living environment was
dreary and monotonous.

Crowding on the European


continent , however , was even
more severe , as indicated in the
outline of a tenement block in
Vienna.
Built to ah height of four and
five floors , the block typically
contained a double row of
dwellings , the interior row
facing a narrow interior court on
both sides.

Industrial growth
in large centers
induced the
people to remain
in cities rather
than migrate to
the more healthful
environments of
rural communities
, and the
inevitable result
was the creation
