What was the lasting legacy of the New Deal?

 The New Deal was a program that was to lessen the problems of the Great Depression. It focused on relief for the needy, economic recovery, and financial reform. It was able to have a lasting effect on the United States as it continued to sponsor new projects across the nation. The Lincoln Tunnel was funded by the Public Works Administration in 1934, and today is one of the busiest motor vehicle tunnels in the world. The French Market in New Orleans was renovated through the funding of the Public Works Administration as well. It has a global reputation, and is a must see sight for tourists in the area today. The San Antonio Riverwalk is an amazing sight to see. It has shops and restaurants all along the banks of the river. This riverwalk would not be here if it was not for the Works Progress Administration. The Skyline Drive in Virginia was completed with the help of the Civilian Conservation Corps. This organization also helped create the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. If the New Deal did not sponsor these projects, they would not be here today. These organizations put the citizens of the United States at ease by sending them to work to help them become more financially stable. Not only did the New Deal help the citizens during the Great Depression, but it brought the United States new monuments to explore and attractions to see.  Almost all of the projects that were completed are still in America today and can be seen by the American Citizens or the tourists that are just passing through. These projects showed that it was possible for the United States to become more financially stable after the Great Depression.
