“The Prince is my key.” Intriguing words, aren’t they? We’re standing before Lequerica, a site that holds a connection to a man nicknamed “The Prince,” Jorge Lequerica Araújo. Now, Lequerica isn’t a palace or a grand estate. It’s a monitoring station, keeping a watchful eye on the waters of the Cienaga De Machado. Jorge Lequerica, you see, was deeply involved in Cartagena’s political scene. He served as a city councilman for nearly two decades and held positions like Secretary General and Secretary of Citizen and Community Participation. His commitment to his city? Unwavering. He believed in empowering people, in opening doors of opportunity in areas like security, tourism, and entrepreneurship. He championed initiatives to support micro-businesses, providing them access to credit and training. His vision? A Cartagena where everyone had a key to success, a key symbolized by “The Prince” himself.
