About this map

The coastal municipality of Rincón and the sugar-producing lowlands of Añasco dominate this late 1930s landscape. Along the shore of the Paso de Mona, the American Railroad of Porto Rico serves as the industrial spine of the region, connecting a network of specialized railroad spurs or desvíos. These include Desvío Santoni, Desvío Arenas, and Desvío Eugenia, which likely facilitated the transport of sugarcane from surrounding estates.
