CITY OF BUENOS AYRES.
Great extent of the City. Public Buildings. Inconvenient
Arrangement and want of Comfort in the Dwellings of the
Natives a few years ago. Prejudice against Chimneys.
Subsequent Improvements introduced by Foreigners. Iron
gratings at the windows necessary. Water scarce and dear.
That of the River Plate excellent, and capable of being
kept a very long time. Pavement of Buenos Ayres Page 36
