− | '''Gadsden Street''' is an east-west street in south Pensacola | + | '''Gadsden Street''' is an east-west street in south Pensacola. Primarily a residential street, Gadsden traverses the [[Old East Hill]] and [[East Hill]] districts, and continues into [[West Pensacola]]. Gadsden also extends into [[East Pensacola Heights]] east of [[Bayou Texar]]. Gadsden Street is named in honour of [[James Gadsden]]. Before streets north of [[Wright Street|Wright]]/east of [[8th Avenue]] were named, that part of Gadsden Street was '''4th Street'''. |
Gadsden's current western terminus is at [[Fairfield Drive]] beyond the city limits. From there, the street runs easterly a short distance to [[77th Avenue]]. After an interruption of about 2.6 miles, Gadsden Street resumes with two small segments, one running a short distance west of [[Arlington Drive]] and the other intersecting only with [[Foye Street]]; The main span of the Gadsden Street begins at [[Lynch Street]], traveling easterly — with interruptions between [[Kirk Street|Kirk]] and [[Grandview Street]]s and [[Tarragona Street|Tarragona]] and [[Hayne Street]]s (for [[Interstate 110]]) — to Bayou Texar. Gadsden picks up again on the east bank of Bayou Texar and travels easterly five blocks to its eastern terminus, southeast of [[Chipley Avenue]], at [[Pensacola Bay]]. | Gadsden's current western terminus is at [[Fairfield Drive]] beyond the city limits.
