Border wall and flood wall intersect on Texas border
A 18 foot concrete flood wall near Granjeno shields a small home from Rio Grande flooding. The project, funded by federal and Hidalgo County sources, echoes debates in Washington over a full border wall and its flood control effects. Local officials note gaps and ongoing crossings as Border Patrol monitors the area.
