Workmanship is characterized distinctively by every individual, and I have a tendency to incline towards an individual definition too. It is a play on the expressions of Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart when he was alluding to foulness. "I know it when I see it." This permits me to perceive what I consider craftsmanship, and it additionally issues me the capacity to choose what sorts of workmanship address me. Most local craftsmanship is considered specialty work on the grounds that they were

travel. He's a very inactive person, he's all about staying home reading, he's pretty much what people would call a loner. One day he decides to get out of his comfort zone, tied up his shoes and went out for walk. He pretty much wasn't amused by the city, but a simple homeless man changed it all in a second for Marco, this man turns out to be Marco's father, who supposedly died in a car crash when Marco was 16 years old. After he's dad supposedly death he was left in an orphanage, since he's mother

residential area. To think that suburbia largely did not exist 100 years ago, as Fishman explains, is astounding to me. My entire life has been spent in suburbs, and I know few people who hail from major cities. I think Fishman overlooked one of the most influential forces behind the revitalization of cities: the rise of the service sector. Technological research and

The transportation changed greatly from horse drawn carriages to electric powered street cars that were more comfortable and faster, this also meant the roads needed to be wider like they were made in France after the revolutions by Napoleon the 3rd. Public health was made better by people like Edwin chadwick who was an advocate for better sewer systems and cleaner factories. The class structure changed a great amount due to reform in the government to make a middle class made up of skilled workers

A town breathes. A town speaks. A town can be happy or a town can be sad. It can also grow old and die. A town is very much like a human being in that regard. It has blood vessels and it has blood. Most importantly is that a town has a heart that makes everything about the town work all in unison. John Steinbeck made a similar comparison in the Pearl saying that the town is like a colonial animal saying that it has shoulders, a head, and feet but, a town is more than that. A town can speak through

The three main concerns of ignorance found in the suburban settings in both “The Five-Forty-Eight” and “Suburban”, the resistance of change to wealthy people's' lives in "The Wrysons" and "Disillusionment of Ten O’Clock", and finally the attempts to break the chains of social norms and daily routine and to depart away from them in "The Country Husband" and "Poetry of Departures" are all well embedded in Cheever's three stories and the three poems. The “Suburban” poem is mainly concerned with

In 2000 the housing unit density for all of Mercer County was just over 74 houses per square mile. The city of Sharon has the highest housing density in the entire county with almost 1,997 unites per square mile. Considering this ratio there are more apartments and people renting rather than owning their own homes to save space. The Northern Tier Area has the lowest density with just 22 houses per square mile so there are no apartments just houses (Housing pg. 41-42). There are a total of 49,859

In Fort Washington, MD has been getting a lot of attention lately for what should be good news such as new local retailers, outlets, MGM National Harbor, and high middle-income white people are moving into a neighborhood that once was a dominated wealthy Black historic community. Therefore, in Fort Washington case gentrification have happened due to the new development in the area that involved higher-income residents, increases home prices and rent, which cause the residents who were rent to move

After visiting several locations across southeast Portland it became clear which of the urban ecology terms defined fit with each location. All the locations we visited I believe can be classified as a municipal park (neighborhood park), we defined a municipal park as a green space to the residents of and visitors to a neighborhood. This definition includes a green space, so all of the locations can also be classified as a green space. The only location we visited that was an open space as well as

many years major cities like Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro have seen a significant increase in population density, but the creation of Brasilia and government funding of northern cities such as Manaus has also caused an evident shift in population distribution. This change has been created as a result of increase in government funding in projects such as urbanization of northern cities, job opportunities, harsh physical features and both internal and external migration. Northern cities such as Belem
