1946 Map of Naranjito

About this map

The Río de la Plata carves a deep, winding path through the center of this mid-century Puerto Rican landscape, serving as a vital corridor for infrastructure. Near the southern municipal border, the Represa de Comerío and the associated Planta Hidroelectrica highlight the era's focus on hydroelectric power development. This topography of steep ridges and numerous quebradas is dotted with various agricultural settlements known as colonias, such as Colonia Piña and Colonia Sabana, alongside established barrios like Minillas.
