Love and Struggle in a Small City

Troy, New York. It used to be home to wealthy industrial workers in the early twentieth century, it was thought that the city would continue to blossom. By the 1970s, and maybe earlier, that thought vanished. Factories, highly-regarded workers and business owners has left for the bigger and better life in other cities and town; a chance for them to expand their business.

Now, Brenda Ann Kenneally photographed who the people of Troy are. Most photos are shocking, a different from the life people had in the twentieth century. The photographs taken in this article does show a difference in life style, not what's better or worse. The article reads about Kenneally's life and how she grew up in Troy herself, and the photographs help describe the place, and who the people are.

I really like this article and the photographs because it displays the people of a small city, just like Gainesville. I would love to do a project like that in Gainesville, who are the people that represent gnv.
