Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tenement House Reform in New York, 1834-1900: Prepared for the Tenement House Commission of 1900 The educational work undertaken by the Association for Improving the Condition of the Poor in 1846, and carried on so successfully by them until 1871, was now taken up by another charitable society, namely, the State Charities Aid Association, formed in 1873. This Society, through its Standing Committee, On the Elevation of the Poor in Their Homes, in 1877, again called attention to the need of reform, and leading architects of the city were asked to send in plans for improved tenement houses, so that the best intelligence of the community might be got to work upon the problem. It appears that at this time there were in New York City tenement houses, and that the excessive mortality and sickness in the city at that time was held to be mainly due to the defective system of tenement-house life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of the Old Law Tenement Another factor is the radical change in housing standards that took place during the first two decades of the twentieth century. Living quarters that were regarded as adequate in the 80's and 9o's were soon outmoded. Washtubs, private bathrooms and clothes closets, formerly regarded as luxuries, fell within the classification of minimum requirements. Aside from the radical departure from old housing stand ards, we are witnessing a great change in the social outlook on housing. This point requires no amplification. Low rent housing projects are on the way and will provide space in new buildings to tenement dwellers at the same rentals, andin some instances at lower rentals than those same tenants have been paying in tenement quarters.

Download or read book Housing Laws written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Housing Laws: A Summary of the More Important Provisions in City and State Codes The following summary of important provisions contained in various tenement house laws, housing codes, and city ordinances was prepared for the use of the Housing Committee of the Minneapolis Civic Commerce Association in its efforts to prepare and secure the passage of a new Housing Code. In order to have each summary as nearly correct as possible, it was sent after preparation to the building inspector or some other responsible person in the city or state in question, with the request that it be carefully reviewed and corrected wherever necessary. All the laws relating to tenements were checked up in this way with the exception of those relating to Grand Rapids and Indiana. The summaries covering regulations affecting dwelling houses (marked with a star where similar to tenement requirements and with a dagger where relating to private dwellings only) were not submitted for correction and may contain errors; neither is it certain that they are complete and entirely up to date. The regulation of private dwellings is comparatively new, and the laws are sometimes difficult to locate. The laws relating to Cleveland, Denver, Kansas City, Portland, and St. Louis are not included because at the time this summary was made, these cities were in the process of revising their laws. Where cities are known to have passed ordinances providing for higher standards than those in state codes, these changes have been noted under their proper headings; otherwise, the provisions relating to cities governed by state codes are to be found under the heading of the state in which the city is located. The expense of preparing the summaries has been so great that the Housing Committee did not feel justified in going to the additional expense of printing solely for its own use. However, so many requests for the summaries have been received that it has been decided to print and make a small charge to cover the cost.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State Tenement House Act and State Hotel and Lodging House Act of California: Introduced in California Legislature, Session of 1917 All apartment houses are tenement houses, except houses not more than two stories high containing not more than four apartments. In observing the working of the act in the erection of apart ment houses in San Francisco, particularly in the more con gested portions of that city where hotels and lodging houses abound, I found that while hotels and lodging houses could lawfully use the yards and courts of apartment houses for light and air they gave nothing in return. A hotel or lodging house backing on the rear of an apartment house could be built to the rear line of its lot and use the yard of the apart ment house for light and air. In the same way it used the lot line courts. This condition was producing a solid mass of brick buildings with hardly any open spaces Where only apartment houses, hotels and lodging houses were built the city blocks were becoming a mass of buildings of steel and brick so solidly constructed as to last a century or more and with no proper provision for light and air. Accordingly in January, 1913, I drafted a bill to regulate the erection of hotels and lodging houses which was passed by4 tenement house and hotel and lodging house acts.

Book Synopsis From the Puritans to the Projects by : Lawrence J. Vale
Download or read book From the Puritans to the Projects written by Lawrence J. Vale and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the almshouses of seventeenth-century Puritans to the massive housing projects of the mid-twentieth century, the struggle over housing assistance in the United States has exposed a deep-seated ambivalence about the place of the urban poor. Lawrence J. Vale's groundbreaking book is both a comprehensive institutional history of public housing in Boston and a broader examination of the nature and extent of public obligation to house socially and economically marginal Americans during the past 350 years. First, Vale highlights startling continuities both in the way housing assistance has been delivered to the American poor and in the policies used to reward the nonpoor. He traces the stormy history of the Boston Housing Authority, a saga of entrenched patronage and virulent racism tempered, and partially overcome, by the efforts of unyielding reformers. He explores the birth of public housing as a program intended to reward the upwardly mobile working poor, details its painful transformation into a system designed to cope with society's least advantaged, and questions current policy efforts aimed at returning to a system of rewards for responsible members of the working class. The troubled story of Boston public housing exposes the mixed motives and ideological complexity that have long characterized housing in America, from the Puritans to the projects.

Download or read book The Lodging House Problem in Boston (Classic Reprint) written by Albert Benedict Wolfe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-21 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lodging House Problem in Boston The lodging-house of any sort has claimed comparatively little attention in the literature of the housing question, and the room ing-house specifically has fared still worse. The only definition we have been able to find, outside the dictionaries, is the following: A lodging-house shall be taken to mean and include any house or building or portion thereof in which persons are harbored, or received, or lodged for hire, for a single night or for less than a week at one time, or any part of which is let for any person to sleep in for any term less than a week. 2 This is the definition given in the original New York tenement-house law of 1867 (chap. 908, sec. And it has been continued through all the subsequent acts with out change. It excludes the rooming-house, where the ordinary rental period is a week or a month, but which is commonly called a lodging-house, and in some cities is never called anything else. A definition so at variance with common usage is obviously defect ive, and may be positively misleading. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

That the result thus obtained is a valuable one for the individual and the community is conceded. It is far better for the com munity when the family, which is the unit of the State, owns its hearth-stone, or at least can be the quasi-owner of an undivided house, at a moderate rent. This conclu sion is more especially true as applied to the poorer classes. Flats or apartments renting from one to six thousand a year, since they confer all the luxuries and comforts and almost the privacy of separate houses, need not be considered here; but the lower down one goes in the scale of rents, the nearer do these flats shade off into tenement houses, with their objectionable features. In Philadelphia, however, neither the tenement house for the poor nor the flat for the rich has taken root. Each is equally rare in the Quaker city.
