About this map

San Juan National Historic Site and the historic Isleta de San Juan define the northern coastline of this modern metropolitan survey. The capital city and surrounding municipalities of Cataño, Guaynabo, Carolina, and Trujillo Alto are shown in high detail, illustrating a dense urban landscape connected by a complex network of expressways, including the Expreso Las Americas and Expreso de Diego. Educational and medical institutions such as the Universidad de Puerto Rico Recinto de Rio Piedras and the Universidad de Puerto Rico Recinto de Ciencias Medicas reflect the area's role as a regional hub.

Waterways like the Caño de Martin Peña and the Rio Piedras cut through the built environment, separating neighborhoods like Pue Constitucion from the coastal beaches of Condado Beach and Ocean Park Beach. Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds, from the coastal Cementerio Maria Magdalena de Pazzi to the inland Cementerio de la Capital, while international transit centers like Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport anchor the eastern edge of the quadrangle.
