Marseilles Builds Grand Canal Across Arc River
The project includes ten miles of tunnels and an aqueduct crossing the Arc River near Aix. At two hundred fifty feet above the river, the canal rises to an immense height. Estimated cost exceeds twenty million dollars, funded by Marseilles without government aid. Profits for stockholders come from irrigation water value, boosting land worth in a favorable climate.
