1970 Map of Playa De Ponce

About this map

The coastal harbor at Playa de Ponce dominates this southern Puerto Rico survey, revealing the maritime and industrial infrastructure of the region during the 1970s. The bustling Muelle de Ponce and several radio stations, including Antena de Radio (WLEO) and Antena de Radio (WISO), serve as central landmarks for the urbanized Canas Urbano district. Beyond the city center, the landscape transitions into agricultural zones and small settlements like Cintrona Segunda and Quinta Esperanza, separated by the courses of the Rio Portugues and Rio Bucana. To the south, the survey extends into the Mar Caribe, documenting the offshore geography of Isla De Jueyes and the significant landmass of Isla Caja de Muertos, complete with its prominent Faro and Cerro Morrillo peak.
