	Subway Centennial
		By 1900, New York City was the second-largest city in the world, but most of its 3,437,202 people were squeezed into Manhattan (the Lower East Side was one of the most densely populated areas in history).
		New York’s population quickly spread beyond Manhattan: in the 1890s Harlem was a little town in the suburbs; by 1914, 75 percent of New York’s African-Americans lived there.
		For the 42 years since the first subway opened in 1904 the fare had remained a nickel, and the nickel fare was inadequate for maintaining trains, stations, equipment, and aging infrastructure.

		Tweed, a former chairman of the Democratic Central Committee of New York County, was the undisputed leader of the so-called Tweed Ring, which controlled all aspects of New York City's financial lifelines.
		Eventually convicted on a number of charges having to do with the theft of city funds, bribery, and other extracurricular activities, Tweed was sent to jail in 1873, and except for a brief escape to Spain, where he was captured and deported back to New York City, he never regained either freedom or power.
		What the city needed, Hewitt insisted, was an interborough underground, or subway, an interconnected rail system modeled after those in Europe, which could move great numbers of workers in and out of the city on a daily basis.
