1972 Map of Utuado

About this map

Lago Dos Bocas and Lago Caonillas dominate this mid-20th-century landscape, where the confluence of the Rio Grande de Arecibo and its tributaries powers the Central Hidroelectrica. The urban center of Utuado sits at the foot of steep terrain, featuring established landmarks like the Parque Atletico and the Tanque de Agua. The surrounding hillsides are divided into distinct barrios such as Sabana Grande and Vivi Abajo, revealing a pattern of rural settlement tied to the land. Significant agricultural and social history is preserved in labels for the Hacienda Carbonell, Campamento Radley, and the Bosque Estatal de Rio Abajo. Local spiritual life is marked by the Iglesia San Pascual and Iglesia Santa Maria del Monte Carmelo, which serve as anchors for their respective communities amid the winding mountain roads.
