'''Intendencia Street''' is an east-west street in [[downtown Pensacola]]. Its western terminus is at South [[Pace Boulevard]]; from there it travels easterly uninterrupted to [[F Street]], where it is interrupted for one block. Intendencia picks back up at [[E Street]] and runs uninterrupted to its eastern terminus in at [[Cevallos Street]] in the Seville residential district.
 
From [[Baylen Street]] west to [[de Villiers Street]], Intendencia is one-way westbound.
 
The street is present on the [[1812]] [[Pintado plan]], where it is labelled '''Calle de la Intendencia'''.
According to the [http://web.uflib.ufl.edu/digital/collections/sanborn/query/UF70000180_Index.html 1907 Sanborn Fire Maps], at that time, Intendencia extended past its current eastern terminus at Cevallos at met [[10th Avenue]] at [[Pensacola Bay]], just north of the [[W. B. Wright Co.]]'s [[Santa Rosa Mills]].
