1947 Map of Fajardo NE

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The coastal landscapes of northeastern Puerto Rico are defined by a rhythmic succession of lagoons and rocky points in the mid-1940s. Centered on the municipality of Fajardo, the map illustrates a transition from the agricultural colonial system to early industrialization. Several prominent agricultural estates, such as Colonia Paulina, Colonia Convento, and Colonia Isidra, are etched into the hillsides, representing a era when sugar and cattle dominated the local economy. These estates are linked by primitive roads and a linea de transmision, showing the early footprint of regional infrastructure.
