- Description:
- Constructed of local volcanic rocks cemented with earth and lime, the house base is almost 2 m high in places and surmounted by a larger built-in staircase on the eastern side of the structure, with two smaller staircases to the north and south. The lack of an upper façade entrance to match the main stair case, suggests that the stone foundations were built for an earlier structure.

- Description:
- This historic structure is locally refrred to as La Cárcel or jail. Whether or not the structure served as a jail, or perhaps more likely as the store/warehouse of Lorenzo Tous’ later ventures, the property is littered with old refuse. Between 2012 and 2014, the upper façade had collapsed entirely. The area may have been the location of a communal kitchen, which historic photos place directly below the hacienda house.

- Description:
- El Progreso occasonally receives visitors attracted to the ruins of Hacienda El Progreso; however, most tourists to the island do not travel into the highlands, and those who do, often bypass the village completely. This tour group of local students from the coast stand at the intersection directly below and to the east of the hacienda house ruins.

- Description:
- Exotic invasives quickly colonize abandoned agricultural lands in the verdant landscapes of the highland ZUEs. This increases the effort required to bring farms back into production and incentivizes their abandonment. This wall of vines along the road leading to La Soledad, is typical of vegetative growth in the ZUE agricultural landscapes.
