The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Tweed helped move the money through the city council(and skimmed off the top) for projects such as museums, hospitals, paved roads, luxurious courthouses, and the famous Brooklyn Bridge

Boss Tweed and the Democratic Party political machine known as Tammany Hall were very corrupt and moved millions of dollars in bribery to get lucrative business.

This political machine was based on corruption practices. Too much money and concessions were given to maintain its political power. The political machine dominated New York City from the mid-1800s to 1934.
