Then, in the second half of the 19th century, a flood of immigrants began to arrive in America. Most of these newcomers came through the Ellis Island Immigration Station located in New York Harbor. Lacking the means or desire to move any farther, many of these immigrants settled where they landed—in New York City. Their large numbers overwhelmed an already crowded city. The streets became clogged with people and various types of streetcars vying for space on the roads.

A. to support a claim about how popular New York was at the time. B
B. to support a claim about how quickly New York's population increased
