Cook job in a New York slum during the Great Depression, 193

A man tastes with a trowel in his hand the pot that is being distributed to the unemployed in the resulting slums of New York. Since the Depression is present also in New York City, a second city of the unemployed is developed in the city along the Hudson River. Thousands of unemployed and homeless meet here to build their makeshift accommodation with moving boxes and other found materials on storage areas and public spaces
