Answer:

In 1745, Robert Gray handed over the estate. It was later bought by a relative who built a modern house before 1760. His property has changed frequently until 1872, when it was bought by Evan Charles Sutherland-Walker, who extended the house and improved the same land. However, the state of the building had been reduced in 1897, when wealthy industrialist Andrew Carnegie had a one-year lease, with a purchase option. In 1898 he exercised that option of £ 85,000. However, his condition had decreased so much by this time that an additional £ 2 million was spent on improvements, including an area increase of 16,000 square feet (1,500 m 2) to more than 60,000 square feet (5,600 m 2), In addition to the creation of Loch Ospisdale, an indoor swimming pavilion and a 9-hole golf course. Carnegie employed Alexander Ross of Inverness to carry out major improvement works that include complete electrical services served by a private plant.

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

(A) Urbanization makes it easier to proportion services like medical services and education because people are more concentrated in urban areas. Rural areas are hard to supply with specialized services. A disadvantage is that crime tends to be statistically higher in urban areas.

Explanation:

In addition to the advantages and disadvantages of urbanization (B) Two factors that have led to the urban sprawl is 1) lack of urban planning and 2) rapid population growth that leads to overcrowding and traffic problems that compel people to move elsewhere or to travel long distances and thus adding to the urban sprawl.  (C) An economic disadvantage that cities may face is that services may be overburdened and it can lead to lower quality of life and higher poverty indicators in inner cities, for example.  (D) Urban sprawl has a negative impact on the environment because more people use private transportation because they have to travel long distances, thus increasing pollution. It also increases the need for parking and thus increasing the price of parking and making a sustainable form of life difficult for most wage earners. (E) Two practices that would be emphasized to create sustainable cities would be to encourage the use of public transportation and non-motorized vehicles like bicycles to reduce pollution and the levels of car traffic in the city.
