'''Pace Boulevard''' is a major north-south thoroughfare in West Pensacola.
Pace Boulevard in its current configuration starts as a spur of US 29 (North [[Palafox Street]]) at [[Massachusetts Avenue]]. Palafox continues southwestward southeastward into the heart of downtown Pensacola while Pace Boulevard veers south, eventually terminating just south of [[Barrancas Avenue]], at [[Bayou Chico]].
Pace Boulevard carries [[Florida State Road 292]] from its northern terminus until the intersection with Barrancas, at which point 292 continues westward on Barrancas.
Historically, Pace Boulevard was known as '''O Street''' and '''Pettersen Avenue'''. <ref>[[Watson maps]]</ref> At one point, its northern terminus was at [[Fairfield Drive]] (Pottery Plant Road).In [[1953]], the City designated O Street as Pace Boulevard from [[Barrancas Avenue]] north to the City limits, in honor of [[James G. Pace]].<ref>Ordinance #45-53, City of Pensacola.</ref>
