1946 Map of Guayama
USGS Topo · Published 1946About this map
The coastal sugar economy of southern Puerto Rico is clearly visible in this mid-1940s survey. The landscape is defined by its industrial agricultural centers and the surrounding worker settlements known as colonias. Major milling operations at Central Machete and Central Lafayette serve as the anchors for local commerce, connected by a network of roads and the Linea Transmision. This era shows a transition in education and infrastructure, evidenced by the Escuela Segunda Unidad de Pitahaya and the prominent Faro lighthouse at Pta Figuras.
