Tenochtitlan was the principal city of the Aztec Empire. The Templo Mayor (I assume that is the "tower" you are referring to) was used for ceremonial purposes, and no one lived there. The Aztec emprie was conquered in 1521 by the Spaniards.

Imperial Tenochtitlán
The Aztecs were, relatively speaking, latecomers to central Mexico. According to legend, they founded their capital, Tenochtitlán, in 1325, on an island in the middle of Lake Texcoco. In the center of the island, they erected a great temple to honor their patron deity, Huitzilopochtli, and laid out the city in four surrounding quarters. Though the invading Spaniards greatly admired its splendor, comparing it to Venice, the city was destroyed in the conquest of 1521.

It was near Paris, France during about 1950. However, during the Vietnam war it was bombed by the Vietcong. It still stands today and the French have rebuilt the city. The only lasting evidence of the Vietcong in Paris is the Eiffel Tower which the Vietcong built as a tribute to communism.
Good luck :)

It should have been given in a lesson, homework is usually feedback of what you have learned in the class. Open your textbook and read the chapter .
