What reading level is The Old Neighborhood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It’s in the raw physicality—its semi-permanence. It links you into something bigger—the infrastructure of a city, of a country. I’ve built and rebuilt dozens of streets and bridges all over Chicago. It links you into something bigger—the infrastructure of a city, of a country. You know that spider web of bridges where the Ike, the Dan Ryan, and the Stevenson intersect? That interstate hub would not have remained standing if it weren’t, in small part, for my hands and my sweat. Ten years have pas...sed, and the concrete that surrounds the patches I helped extract and replace on the piers is now spotted with new rotten sections. Even so, it’s that semi-permanence—that long-endured resistance that the work represents. It’s about that glance at a patch you broke out and helped pour as you zip past at sixty-miles an hour. It’s the memories of the sweat, pain, and danger. It fortifies your spirit when all your other worldly efforts seem to be failing and crumbling around you.
