Where you’ll be

Pensacola, Florida, United States

Neighborhood highlights

Pensacola is known for its laid-back, coastal way-of-life, its long history and diverse culture. You’ll find all that and a few surprises in the heart of the city’s downtown.

Founded by Spanish sailor Don Tristan de Luna in 1559, the Pensacola Bay Area was the first European settlement in the New World. Over the centuries, the flags of Spain, Britain, France, the Confederacy and the United States have flown over the “City of Five Flags.”

Highlights of Downtown Pensacola -

On Saturdays just two blocks from the house is the award-winning Palafox Market from 9am-2pm, rain or shine—named Florida's Best Farmers Market by Southern Living magazine. Shop for farm-fresh produce, plants, baked goods and more at the event that's consistently voted "Best Farmers Market" and "Best Free Thing to Do!"

Friday evening each month, Palafox Street—one of America's "10 Great Streets"—closes at 5pm to traffic and transforms into an outdoor festival of art, music and food. Gallery Night is the perfect opportunity to experience downtown Pensacola's thriving art scene and eclectic mix of sights, sounds and flavors.

The votes are in, and Downtown Pensacola is celebrating its selection as Florida's Greatest Place. Great Places of Florida, an award program of the Florida Chapter of the American Planning Association, highlights Florida's great communities and the great people that comprise them.

Downntown Pensacola is enjoying a new wave of cultural vibrancy. While you're here, don't miss the opportunity to check out these three small but formidable cultural hot spots that are making the downtown district a popular stop on the art circuit​ these ​days:
Voices of Pensacola Multicultural Center
Improvable Cause at Pensacola Little Theatre
Quayside Gallery

It's the largest public art project in Pensacola, a 3,000 sq. ft. mural painted by local artists Ashton Howard and Evan Levin. The pair spent more than 300 hours on a scissor lift high above the ground, transforming a plain brick parking garage wall into a colorful work of art.

The Belmont-DeVilliers district, sometimes known as West Hill or "the Blocks," or pronounced Belmont-Devillers) is a historic neighborhood in Pensacola, centered around Belmont and de Villiers Streets. Belmont-DeVilliers is historically a center of Pensacola's African-American community, due largely to Florida's "Jim Crow" laws which took effect in 1905 and mandated segregation. It was a bustling commercial district in the early twentieth century, until a number of factors led to an exodus of both businesses and residents in the 1950s.

The Belmont-DeVilliers Neighborhood Association defines the district as bordered by Cervantes Street to the north, Gregory Street to the south, A Street to the west, and Spring Street to the east. The City of Pensacola's Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) considers the neighborhood boundaries expanded south to Garden Street and excluding that which is north of La Rua Street and east of Reus Street. According to the CRA, the neighborhood occupies about 35 city blocks, or roughly 100 acres.

The CRA initiated a revitalization project called the "Future Land Use Plan" that installed new sidewalks, brick crosswalks, historic streetlamps and landscaping to the area's four-block core. The project has also set guidelines for future residential and commercial development that will preserve the historic flavor of the neighborhood while promoting growth.

The district hosts the annual Goombay festival!

Just two blocks away is the award winning restaurant Five Sisters, part of the Mississippi Blues Trail!
