1970 Map of Ponce

About this map

The industrial and agricultural landscape of southern Puerto Rico is dominated by Central Mercedita and the surrounding sugar estate infrastructure near Ponce. The map reveals a transition from the urban density of the city center, with its grid-aligned streets like Calle Isabel and Calle Villa, to a rural periphery defined by numerous family-named haciendas. To the east, the Fort Allen Naval Radio Station and the Estacion Experimental Agricola UPR highlight the region's mid-century strategic and scientific importance.
