Residencial Luis Lloréns Torres
Residencial Luis Lloréns Torres, also commonly known as Lloréns Torres, is a public housing complex in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It is located a few minutes driving distance from both the tourist and hotels areas of the Condado and Isla Verde neighborhoods, and from Luis Munoz Marin International Airport. It is also minutes away from the neighboring city of Carolina. Named after Puerto Rican independence advocate Luis Lloréns Torres, the complex is the largest housing and apartments complex in Puerto Rico, with some 2,600 residents accounted during the 2000 census. Other sources, such as Univision, say there are as many as 30,000 residents in the residencial. These residents occupy 2,000 apartments.The complex is also known for its long standing drug trafficking situation. For decades, the residencial, along with others such as Residencial Nemesio Canales and Torres de Sabana, for example, has been a focus of the illegal drug trade in Puerto Rico, and there have been periodic rivalries between cartels operating at Luis Lloréns Torres and those other residenciales, as well as with cartels from other areas of the island.
