Morovis Norte was in Spain's gazetteers[5] until Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain in the aftermath of the Spanish–American War under the terms of the Treaty of Paris of 1898 and became an unincorporated territory of the United States. In 1899, the United States Department of War conducted a census of Puerto Rico finding that the population of Morovis Norte barrio was 821.[6]

In June 2020, it was closed for repairs.[7] Bridge repairs were completed and the bridge reopened for traffic in late 2023.[8]
