Central plaza of Guaynabo

The central plaza, or square, is a place for official and unofficial recreational events and a place where people can gather and socialize from dusk to dawn. The Laws of the Indies, Spanish law, which regulated life in Puerto Rico in the early 19th century, stated the plaza's purpose was for "the parties" (celebrations, festivities) (Spanish: a propósito para las fiestas), and that the square should be proportionally large enough for the number of neighbors (Spanish: grandeza proporcionada al número de vecinos). These Spanish regulations also stated that the streets nearby should be comfortable portals for passersby, protecting them from the elements: sun and rain.[7]

Located across the central plaza in Guaynabo barrio-pueblo is the Parroquia San Pedro Mártir, a Roman Catholic church.[14]

History

Guaynabo barrio-pueblo was in Spain's gazetteers[15] until Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898 and became an unincorporated territory of the United States. In 1899, the United States Department of War conducted a census of Puerto Rico finding that the population of Guaynabo Pueblo was 465.[16]

In July 2020, Federal Emergency Management Agency appropriated funds for repairs to Guaynabo's plaza.[17]

Sectors

Barrios (which are, in contemporary times, roughly comparable to minor civil divisions)[6] in turn are further subdivided into smaller local populated place areas/units called sectores (sectors in English).
