Legend

this pleasure club was owned and operated by Tiranga the Hutt, and was located in Vakeyya, on the planet Socorro. It was here that the Hutt also held his public tax assessment proceedings. The establishment was located in a dilapidated warehouse building which was dotted with signs that indicated it was condemned. In reality, though, the interior of the warehouse was an immense bar, casino, and dance hall. A double layer of blast shields protects the building's true nature from being discovered, and layers of packed sand inside the walls help deaden any vibration and make it virtually sound-proof. The gravity inside the building is kept at two-thirds standard, in deference to Tiranga's spinal injury. Rumor had it that Lando Calrissian was a partner in the Loft, having helped finance its construction.
