Industrial and agricultural history converge along the Caribbean coast in this survey overseen by Commissioner Roberto Sanchez Vilella. The landscape is dominated by large estates and processing facilities such as Central Constancia and Central Fortuna, which reflect the sugar economy that shaped the region during the mid-20th century. Numerous haciendas, including Hacienda Santa Cruz, Hacienda Esperanza, and Hacienda Serrano, are distributed across the alluvial plains between the Rio Portugues and Rio Jacaguas, illustrating the land tenure patterns of the era.
