Former Bathing Basin

Subject

Tidal Basin: former swimming basin

Description

This map reveals that after the influx of immigrants with inadequate bathing options subsided the Tidal Basin was returned to a more scenic area. A small bathing area was placed away from the main body of water. The basin had became more relaxed by 1908. People enduring urbanization were creating solutions for the environmental consequences created by crowding.
