La Rua Street is an east-west street in downtown Pensacola. Primarily a residential street, La Rua traverses the Old East Hill and East Hill districts, and continues into West Pensacola. La Rua Street is named in honour of John de la Rua. Before streets north of Wright/east of 8th Avenue were named, that part of La Rua Street was 2nd Street.
