The limited amount of room was causing many to have 10 or more people to a room

Those who were not lucky enough to get a room, lived in the streets.

Immigrants were replaced immediately after one died working. Most died while working on tall buildings.

The jobs that the immigrants occupied were dangerous and many died while at work. Most worked in Sweat shops which were hazardous factories. Some worked atop tall buildings, building the frames. Unfortunately, most would not return home from work.
