1937 Map of Aguadilla

About this map

Aguadilla sits prominently along the coast of the Bahia De Aguadilla, where the urban center transitions into the agricultural landscape of the 1930s. The region is defined by its coastal infrastructure and burgeoning educational system, marked by numerous rural schoolhouses such as Escuela Borinquen No 227 and Escuela Luis Muñoz Rivera. To the south, the American railroad tracks cut across the landscape toward Coloso, supporting the local sugar industry represented by the Ingenio. This survey reflects an era of transition, where established towns like Aguada are connected by a network of Carretera and Camino routes that navigate between the limestone hills and the fertile valleys of the Rio Culebrinas. Notable landmarks like the Pta Borinquen L H and Columbus Park anchor the shoreline, providing essential maritime and cultural reference points.
