What was the capital of The Panama Canal Zone while under US rule?

McGruff

Culebra (Snake) The headquarters for General Goethals and the Isthmian Canal Commission. The offices of the office engineer and the chief quartermaster, now known as head of the supply division, were located here. Culebra, the original capital of the US Canal construction, was a small village founded by Panama Railroad surveyors in 1850. Four years later, it enjoyed a brief prosperity as the southern terminal of the railroad, at that stage of its construction. The French used the town when they began to excavate dirt out of the Cut, and the US made it their construction capital until 1909 when most of the buildings were moved to new locations at the Pacific end of the Canal. http://www.czbrats.com/Towns/thetowns.htm Jun 13 04, 6:10 AM
