THE FIVE POINTS, NEW YORK CITY
"This is the place: these narrow ways diverging to the right and left, and reeking every where with dirt and filth….. Debauchery has made the very houses prematurely old. See how the rotten beams are tumbling down, and how the patched and broken windows seem to scowl dimly, like eyes that have been hurt in drunken frays. Many of these pigs live here. Do they ever wonder why their masters walk upright in lieu of going on all-fours? and why they talk instead of grunting?" - Charles Dickens
“[The population of the Five Points are]...not paupers and criminals, but the Republic's most needed asset, the wealth of stout poor men [and we will add women] who will
work" - Walt Whitman
