About this map

The American Railroad of Porto Rico tracks run parallel to the northern coast, cutting through the shoreline terrain near Pta Maracayo and the wetlands of Ciénaga La Sardinera. This mid-century coastal landscape in the Municipio de Hatillo is defined by a dense network of local barrios including Carrizales, Capáez, and Corcobados.

Community life centers around several rural hubs, such as Lechuga and Paloma, and religious landmarks like Iglesia de Dios (Pentecostal) and Iglesia Culpeper Memorial. The educational landscape is represented by the Escuela Eugenio María de Hostos, while the presence of the Estación de Radio (WVRM) reflects the era's evolving communication infrastructure. The intricate contour lines reveal the undulating coastal plain as it transitions toward the interior neighborhoods of Hato Arriba.
