'''Zaragoza Street''' (alternately '''Zarragossa Street'''; see [[#Spelling|below]]) is an east-west street in [[downtown Pensacola]]. It is named for the [[Wikipedia:Zaragoza|Spanish city]] of the same name.
Zaragoza Street from [[Palafox Street|Palafox]] east is a prominent part of the [[Pensacola Historic Village]], featuring a number of historic homes as well as the [[Museum of Commerce]].
For a time during the 20th century, many referred to Zaragoza Street as '''Liberty Street''', though this was never an official designation.
==Spelling==
Some archaic sources, such as an [[1889]] code of ordinances of the [[Provisional Municipality of Pensacola]], used the spelling ''Sarragossa''.
The ''[[Pensacola News Journal]]'' commonly uses the ''Zarragossa'' spelling. The [[Escambia County Property Appraiser]] also uses the spelling ''Zarragossa''.
Additionally, in older literature, it is not uncommon to see various alternate spellings, such as ''Zaragosa'' or ''Zarragosa''.
