There were many problems immigrants faced in the 1900s. In the 1900s, the ships that sent the immigrants to America were mostly overcrowded and as we know at that time technology was maybe a little bit,er...... how should I say it........ oh yeah......... off. So as we see that there were no fridges at that time so after a week the food supplies,well, just went..... bad..... rotten..... smelly..... mol---.... You get it........ So when they went to America,well if they got to America (without dying on the ship) they might be sent back to their country just because...... well, they didn't pass some (stupid) medical tests... Then when they got off Ellis Island, the ground wasn't made of gold... (People used to say America's streets were made out of gold) it wasn't, anyway...... They got horrible jobs too, just because some couldn't speak English well... Horrible huh? They were also some times treated like outcasts.

How did the immigrants and the steel mills create the Pittsburgh of the late 1800s and early 1900s?
Immigrants coming to America would work for low pay and would do more dangerous jobs then Americans. Since they were just looking to make a living they would work in unsafe conditions of a steel mill such as the ones in Pittsburgh.
