Family run businesses dominate West Main Street, like Coia sweet shop, Peking House Chinese take away, Talking Heads hairdressers and Allure beauty salon, as well as bigger

Although the events of the Stock Market crashing and the Great Depression had come to a halt, many of the affected Americans were still dealing with the destruction they caused. Many other events like this, small or large, have affected a multitude
The sheer white curtains billow in through the open window with the warm night air, like the sails of a ship setting off into the night. Lying in bed, I hear the buzz of a scooter whizzing through the streets, ironically followed by the rhythmic clip-clop of horseshoes meeting the cobblestone streets. It is our last night in Salzburg, Austria, and that moment embodies what makes this city appeal to me so much.

They have been kicked out of their houses and apartments because they can't afford rent due to their low paying jobs.

Roman City Planning The design and structure of a city is as important as the people who dwell within her walls. The placement of streets and the structures built there are carefully plotted for optimal use. Foot and cart traffic, fire hazard, and access to water were all key factors in city planning.
