The page for this trope is imageless, though it doesn't need to be, since there's tons and tons of paintings and photos of ugly polluted neighborhoods. I have a few favorites from old art and the like, but this isn't exactly a hard trope to depict anyways. Here's some OP pictures:

Factories and slums by a river

Picture of some British slums

Some more factories

Five Points, Manhattan--Might need to crop this one.

1.3 works for me best. The others look like "industry zone" or "ghetto" more.

I'd like something more contemporary, for comparison.

[up] I couldn't find any recent pictures that fit the trope description. It's mostly an industrial revolution era thing.

I keep thinking of the Rust Belt but 1900's industrial squalor is good too, just preferred a photo over a woodcut.

Bump. I like Willbyr's resize of 1.1, any objections or should I put it up?

The clock is up; consensus for 1.1 is weak, but it's better than nothing so it's up and tagged. I put a couple of the other suggestions and one other that I found on the Image Links page. Add a caption if you want one; locking up.
