History
The town of Reventazón is mentioned in 1887 as "a point about 40 miles from Limon". A 50 mile-long railway line, "the Reventazon line", is due to link it to Cartago, passing through a rich countryside noted for its sugar-cane and with valuable copper mines as yet not open for the lack of even a mule track. That line is to have 45 large bridges and 88 small ones; among those is the 600 ft-long Birriz viaduct with four spans of 150 feet each, resting on iron columns, and in some places 200 feet above the water.[3] James Livesey and Son are chief engineers for the railway.[4]
Reventazón District was created on 16 October 2018 by Decreto Ejecutivo N°040-2018-MGP.[2]
