131. Map of Zones of Special Use (ZUEs) in the Galápagos Islands

Description:
Zonas de Uso Especial occupy approximately 3.3% of the park’s terrestrial area in the highlands of the four populated islands: San Cristóbal, Santa Cruz, Floreana, and southern Isabela. The ZUEs were recognized by the PNG in 1996 as areas where the park’s management plan permitted uses that were contradictory to the primary objectives of protected areas, specifically ecosystemic conservation and recreational activities.

Hacienda El Progreso sent its products via oxen-drawn cart to its large warehouse or Bodega on the coast at Puerto Chico.

The Bodega was constructed directly on the beach close to a pier with Decauville rails for loading products onto the schooner.

133. The local matazarno tree was excellent for house construction, but trunks of this size are not to be found in Galápagos. Photo is probably of a mainland tree.

Description:
Native Matazarno, a tree or shrub that can grow up to 15 m in height is highly valued for its hard inner wood and preservative properties. It is likely that Matazarno was used from the early years of Galápagos colonization as the main source of timber for construction materials. Various photographs of Hacienda El Progreso taken during the 1888 visit by the USS Albatross show large pieces of Matazarno trunks forming the structures of some plantation facilities, the main house, and parts of the worker’s houses.

140. The view looking towards Wreck Bay shows the rails leading to the pier, and what was for a long time the archipelago's only lighthouse. “Johnson from London” lived in the shack next to the light.

Description:
In 1905, Puerto Chico consisted of a warehouse, plantation manager’s house, a few simple homes, the Wreck Bay light (a lantern atop a lengthy bamboo pole) and the light keeper’s house. Martínez (1915:43) mentions a small guard house, cabin for the ship’s captain, and a vast warehouse for El Progreso’s products.
