Garden Street is a major east-west thoroughfare in downtown Pensacola. It serves as the dividing line for all the city's north-south streets.

Garden Street's western terminus is at Pace Boulevard in West Pensacola; west of that intersection the roadway continues as Navy Boulevard. Garden Street travels east from Pace Boulevard into the heart of downtown Pensacola and terminates at Alcaniz Street near St. Michael's Cemetery. For the entirety of its length Garden Street carries US 98 Business.

Garden Street is four-laned for its entirety, however, between A Street and Alcaniz Street its east and west spans are separated by a median.

Historically, there was an incontiguous span of Garden that ran from Cevallos to 12th Avenue at the bay[1].
