13. What expensive ingredient was needed for the cities to expand upward?

History

alexdok [17]3 years ago

When the cost of land is too high, cities tend to expand upwards instead of outwards, as is the case, for instance, in Manhattan Island. However, most US cities expand outwards as there is usually plenty of land available.

Another factor that determines the manner in which a city expands is the geological characteristics of the territory that would require cheaper or more expensive construction materials. In areas which are very complicated in terms of geology, constructing tall buildings would require costly technology and materials and hence this type of expansion is very unprofitable if compared with expading outwards.

Was the American Civil War a just war?
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

My short answer is no.

Explanation:

However, I believe this question is a little bias depending on who you ask. Theoretically, I believe that this event can also be classified as a revolution. I think this because the war was a defining point for the freedom of slaves in America. Let me know if you need more clarification.
