2013 Map of Ponce

About this map

The Ponce urban center and its sprawling surroundings are meticulously detailed in this early 21st-century landscape, where industrial sites like Central Mercedita stand near the Mercedita Airport. Historically significant locations are prominent, including the Panteón Nacional Román Baldorioty de Castro and the Vigia Observation Tower atop Cerro el Vigia. The northern terrain rises into the foothills of the Island of Puerto Rico, marked by peaks such as Pico Pinto and Cerro Santo Domingo. A complex hydrological network is visible, dominated by the Rio Cerrillos and Lago Cerrillos, which serve the agricultural and residential needs of nearby communities like Cerrillos Hoyos and Luis Llorens Torres. Modern transportation routes like PR-10 and Ave Las Americas connect these diverse sectors, from the residential clusters of Aguilita to the coastal plains of Capitanejo.
