Ponce Historic Zone
The Ponce Historic Zone (''La Zona Histórica de Ponce'') is a historic district in downtown Ponce, Puerto Rico, consisting of buildings and structures with architecture that date to the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
The zone was originally designated in 1962, and initially included only the center core of the city, but it has since been expanded to include a much larger area.〔Mario Santana. ''Revitalizacion por Ley.'' El Nuevo Dia. 12 February 2004.〕 On November 17, 2005, then-Governor of Puerto Rico, Aníbal Acevedo Vilá, signed Executive Order Number 72, approving the historic Ponce center as a Historic Center of First Order.〔(Executive Order Number 72, of November 17, 2005 ) Retrieved May 4, 2010.〕 The zone goes by various names, including Ponce Tradicional (Traditional Ponce),〔(''Apoyo Ponceño al Parquimetro.'' El Nuevo Dia. 13 January 2007. ) Retrieved 5 May 2010.〕 Ponce Centro (Ponce Center),〔(''Great Public Places: Ponce Center City.'' ) Maria Fernanda Vallecillo. Project for Public Spaces, New York, New York. "Ponce Center City." Retrieved 11 December 2009.〕 Ponce Histórico (Historic Ponce),〔(''Explore Puerto Rico.'' ) "Historic Ponce." Page 240. Retrieved 11 December 2009.〕 and Distrito Histórico (Historic District).〔(''Frommer's Portable Puerto Rico.'' ) Darwin Porter and Danforth Prince. Volume 10. Second Ed. Wiley Publishing. Pages 7-8. "Historic District." Retrieved 11 December 2009.〕
==Location==
The zone is located in what is commonly called ''Ponce Pueblo'' ("Ponce Town") – the central downtown and oldest area of the city. While there are several roads that lead to it, the most typical point of entry is via PR-1 which, at its southern terminus, becomes Lolita Tizol street〔''Culminan Fiestas del Tricentenario.'' El Nuevo Dia. March 12, 1992. Page 105.〕 and turns into Isabel street, leading to the heart of Ponce at the Plaza Las Delicias. A map of the area covered by the Ponce Historic Zone is available from the government of the municipality of Ponce.〔(Mapa Interactivo.'' ) Government of the Autonomous Municipality of Ponce. Accessed 10 October 2011.〕
In addition to Plaza Las Delicias with its unique Parque de Bombas and Nuestra Señora de la Guadalupe Cathedral, the zone includes landmarks such as Ponce City Hall, Armstrong-Poventud Residence, Ponce High School, and Panteón Nacional Román Baldorioty de Castro. Numerous other attractions in this historic area are listed in the NRHP, such as Banco de Ponce, Casa Paoli, and Casa de la Masacre. Others, such as Teatro Fox Delicias, Teatro La Perla, Plaza de Mercado, Hotel Meliá, and Paseo Atocha are not listed but possess significant historical value.〔''Restauran Cine Teatro en Ponce.'' El Nuevo Dia. May 18, 1991.〕 Street corners in most of this zone have chamfered corners (Spanish: esquinas de chaflán), typical of Barcelona, Spain.
