Public Works Administration (PWA) Chelsea Montminy /12/ F8CDD.jpg

Public Works Administration Created in 1933 Public works would provide; employment, stabilize purchasing, improve public welfare, to revive American industries and modernize the nation.

Public Works Administration The people who were involved were; African Americans, farmers who lost their land, and anyone who lost everything and was looking for a way to get back on their feet. 07wpa.jpg

Projects/creations Projects Reconstructing highways, dams, low cost housing, airports, warships. Creations Created trials on the Grand Canyon National Park, city parks,

The effectiveness of the Public Works Administration was extremely necessary and very effective. It was a sense that the president knew he had to go to extreme matters to get the nation back on track. He had the right idea to give 6 billion dollars to this organization, and by doing this it allowed people to have a job, get money so it will raise the consumption level which meant business would start hiring people again. At the same time it was modernizing the nation. Effectiveness of the Public Works Administration Pwa, working on Bexley road. homes.org.uk/images/bexl ey/northumberland- heath/bexley-road jpg

Public Works Administration is still in use today. They're the reason why we have new roads, roads plowed, and city parks. The reason why they have kept this organization still going is because they are the ones that keep the cities cleaned up and looking good. They also make it a safer living environment. At the same time people are employed. Does it still exist? Construction workers building railroad on a bridge. _management.jpg
