Read the excerpt below and answer the question.

I placed his desk close up to a small side-window in that part of the room, a window which originally had afforded a lateral view of certain grimy back-yards and bricks, but which, owing to subsequent erections, commanded at present no view at all, though it gave some light. Within three feet of the panes was a wall, and the light came down from far above, between two lofty buildings, as from a very small opening in a dome.

negative aspects of progress

Even though civilization is growing and building, sometimes it can be a bit too much. For there to only be three feet in between the window of one building and the side of another, with just a crack for the sun to shine down through, shows that sometimes progress has negative effects. Even though there is light and the previous view wasn't glamorous, this feeling of being so cramped and close together is one of the negative aspects of progress in a city.
