I would recommend coming to witness this home and the historic downtown area. It is not only an attractive part of town, but it is full of the history that led us to the Pensacola that today we know.

The Pensacola Bay Bridge is reopening this morning (5/28/21) after more than eight months of…read moreclosure, long commutes, shifting timelines and community frustration.The bridge, which is the main artery between Pensacola and Gulf Breeze, was significantly damaged during Hurricane Sally in September when multiple Skanska barges broke loose from their moorings and collided with spans of the bridges supports.   The bridge isn't fully open yet, though, and drivers should still expect delays, especially as we head into Memorial weekend. Traffic patterns will shift during a two-lane, half-mile segment just west of the bridge's arch while work to complete final repairs continues. The speed limit is temporarily set at 35 mph and emergency refuge areas are available on the bridge. FDOT says the Garcon Point Bridge and other detours will continue to be available with tolls suspended through June 6. For more information from FDOT, visit https://www.fdot.gov/info/PensacolaBay/

I thought it was super cool and really enjoyed walking around it. Both times I went it wasn't open, which is disappointing. Looks very neat inside.

They have a water front dog beach so the pups can romp in the sand and the bay water. Adorable. They have facilities here for restrooms and some covered pavilions. They have bands on the beach near the dock in the summer months which is lively. There are a ton of old growth trees which are beautiful. There are steps throughout but it's very manageable. Lots of parking. I do wish they had more intentional landscaping. Pensacola selectively landscapes its parks it seems and I wish this one got more of an overhaul. It's quite large and expansive and with some additional thoughtfulness and planting it could be a very special urban park.
