In 1916 they built the first large concrete on the island, a block of apartments built for the workers and also serves to protect them from hurricanes.

In 1959, population had swelled, the population density reached 835 people per hectare for the whole island (1391 per hectare for residential central region), a dense population that has ever happened in the world.
