1950 Map of San Juan NE
USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
The growing urban infrastructure of San Juan and the adjacent Municipio de Carolina are documented in this mid-century survey, highlighted by the massive Aeropuerto Internacional (Proyecto) development. This coastal corridor shows a dense transition from the city blocks of Santa Teresita and Las Casas toward the more open terrain of Cangrejo Arriba. Several distinct local sites are clearly marked, including the Colegio del Sagrado Corazón and a cluster of burial grounds such as the Cementerio Memorial de Fourier and Cementerio Buxeda. The coastline is defined by prominent geographical features like Isla Verde and Pta Las Marías, while the inland landscape is shaped by the Laguna Los Corozos. Key transportation and communication markers include Camino Loiza and the Antenas de Radio WNEL, showing how the metropolitan area was expanding along the Océano Atlántico at this time.
