1941 Map of Isabela

About this map

The coastal shelf of the Municipio de Isabela meets the Atlantic Ocean along a stretch of land defined by its high bluffs and early 20th-century infrastructure. This 1941 edition reflects field surveys dating back to 1922 and culture updates from 1937, showcasing a landscape transitioning into a more connected era. The RR of PR serves as a primary transit artery, running parallel to the coast through the municipal center of Isabela. Coastal landmarks like Pta Jacinto and Pta Sardina frame the northern edge, while inland, smaller settlements such as San Antonio, Aguabate, and Jobos are linked by rural routes and trails like the Camino. The community centers around religious landmarks, including the Iglesia Catolica and the Iglesia Presbiteriana de Montaña, indicating the social and spiritual hubs of these coastal and hillside neighborhoods.
