Very noticeable lettering decor when in the Ponce area. I wish the local or tourist would keep the place cleaner. My wife and I made a stop here because we wanted photos of each letter. I wanted more because this is the part of PR where I was born at.

Free Picture opportunity here... only town in PR that has these huge letters spelling out PONCE. A little difficult to get up on the letter P. But where there's a will there's a way!!!

Great photo opportunity when visiting Ponce. Pull over on the side of the highway and there you go. Ponce offers much more value and culture than the tourist traps of San Juan.

CONJUNTO ESCULTORICO PONCE (2005) Esta obra de arte público contemporánea encarna y celebra todo lo que es la ciudad senorial de PONCE, su señorio, orgullo, su cultura, herencia e identidad.

Estas emblemáticas letras ubicadas en orden armónico, representan la belleza, tradiciones e historia monumental de nuestra ciudad, consagrando todos nuestros logros y aspiraciones que como pueblo caribeño nos hacen únicos. La palabra PONCE se extiende de un lado a otro de esta autopista, magnificando la identidad urbana poncena y elevandola a la medida de su territorio, mirando firme hacia un futuro con esperanza.

Cada letra está construida en acero marino y tiene dimensiones de 20 pies de alto por 18 pies de ancho y 12 pies de profundidad. Su amplitud cubre medio kilometro de espacio geografico. Su peso varia desde 28 mil libras a 34 mil libras (de 14 a 17 toneladas) cada letra, instaladas sobre concreto armado. Su diseño esta inspirado en la identidad urbana arquitectonica, y los colores rojo y negro, son los colores simbólicos de la ciudad. Obra restaurada por el Municipio Autónomo de Ponce y Master Paint en el mes de agosto de 2020.

For every person that came to visit Ponce by car it’s the first and foremost stop but be careful because there is NO PARKING NOR PLACE TO PROPER STOP your car. You most watch your behind and slow until drive to the green area. And walk to the BIG letters. But even the stress to finally take your picture, some time you have to wait...

It's a distinctive landmark for the municipality of Ponce. There's just no design way or path to reach them. People just drive their cars out of the highway and into the green areas surrounding this monument. So, just be careful enough if you want to visit it. Most of the visitors like to take pictures sitting or climbing on...
