Gonzalez Street is an east-west street in downtown Pensacola. Primarily a residential street, Gonzalez traverses East Hill and continues into West Pensacola. Gonzalez Street is named in honour of Don Manuel Gonzalez. Before streets north of Wright/east of 8th Avenue were named, that part of Gonzalez Street was 8th Street.

Gonzalez's current western terminus is at Green Street in West Pensacola; from there it travels easterly uninterrupted to its eastern terminus at Bayou Texar, just east of 19th Avenue.
