If (X, τ) is a topological space, is a family of subsets of X, then the expansion of τ by is the topology τ() on X having τ ∪ as a subbase. If (X, τ) has property , when does (X, τ()) have property ? In this paper we answer this question for the property of dimension. We apply our techniques to first countability and related properties.
