The village of Progreso is 300 meters above sea-level on Isla San Cristóbal. In the mid-1920s it had about 300 inhabitants.

Description:

This view of the worker's quarters in the village of El Progreso was taken some time around 1927 during the Norwegian colonisation. The view is West to East from the original Hacienda house area. Cerro San Joaquin is barely visible in the top left. The surrounding landscape at this time remains relatively open.
