Plaza del Quinto Centenario

Plaza Del Quinto Centenario is recognized for its great views over El Morro and the ocean. It was built in 1992 and they say its cost was about $10 million. It was built to honor the 500th Anniversary of Columbus’ first voyage to the Americas. Many people identify the plaza with “El Tótem Telúrico" which was made by Jaime Suarez, a Puerto Rican artist. The clay totem pole signifies the origin of the people of the Americas.
