1. Title: A Bird's Eye View of Port Limon's Business Section, Costa Rica (circa 1910s) 2.. This black-and-white photograph offers a rare glimpse into the bustling business district of Port Limon, Costa Rica, during the early 1900s. The image, taken from an aerial perspective, showcases the vibrant commercial activity that thrived in this coastal city. At the heart of the scene lies the bustling port, where ships from around the world could be seen anchored, waiting to unload their cargo. The intricate network of docks and wharves stretches out towards the horizon, forming a maze of wooden planks and ropes that connected the land to the sea. Beyond the port, the business section comes alive with a multitude of structures, each with their unique architectural charm. Buildings with red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls stand proudly, housing various businesses that catered to the needs of the port and the community. Among these structures, two distinct buildings draw the eye. One, located at the center, appears to be a telegraph office. Its tall, rectangular shape and the antenna atop the roof are clear indicators of its purpose. The other, to the right, is a transmitter or receiver station, identifiable by its large, domed structure and the numerous wires and antennas that radiate outwards. These communication hubs played a crucial role in connecting Costa Rica to the rest of the world, facilitating trade and information exchange. The Port Limon business section was a melting pot of commerce, innovation, and culture, where the rhythm of the port intertwined with the energy of the bustling commercial district. This photograph captures a moment in time, offering a glimpse into the rich history and vibrant economic activity that once defined this coastal city in Costa Rica.
