Tequixquiac Tunnel, Valley Of Mexico
Ever since Cortes established the present city of Mexico on the site of the ancient Aztec Venice, the problem of the drainage of the Valley of Mexico may be said to have occupied the attention of its inhabitants. Numerous have been the projects for dealing with the difficulty, and very large amounts. of money have been spent and much work done since the time referred to, work which in some cases has been partially successful or which at any rate has tended (aided by the changes in the rainfall of the district, contraction of the area of the lakes, etc.) to modify considerably the old conditions and to simplify somewhat the problem. It would take too long to enter into this past history in proper detail.
