[[Image:Plan1812-halfres.jpg|thumb|right|''Plano, Panzacola, 1812'']]
The '''Pintado plan''' is a street map drawn by [[Vicente Sebastián Pintado]] in [[1812]]. It was published the following year under the title '''''Plano, Panzacola, 1812'''''.
The map depicts the street grid in the core old city of Pensacola; most of the grid and street names depicted are still intact today. Among the streets named on the Pintado plan are:
*[[Palafox Street]] (Calle de Palafox)
*[[Tarragona Street]] (Calle de Tarragona)
*[[Alcaniz Street]] (Calle de Alcaniz}
*[[Romana Street]] (Calle de Romana)
*[[Intendencia Street]] (Calle de la Intendencia)
*[[Government Street]] (Calle de Gobierno)
*[[Church Street]] (Calle de la Iglesia)
*[[Commendencia Street]] (Calle de la Commandancia)
*[[Barracks Street]] (Calle de los Quarteles)
*[[Brue Street]] and [[Manressa Street]] are depicted at the top of the map as "Bru" and "Manresa"
What is now [[Zaragoza Street]] is not contiguous on the Pintado plan, but rather split among streets labelled "Calle de la Recova" and "Calle del Tivoli de Reding". The shoreline is depicted near where present-day [[Main Street]] would be.
Confusingly, what is now [[Seville Square]] is depicted as "Plaza de Fernando 7<sup>0</sup>" (Plaza of Ferdinand VII), while the [[Plaza Ferdinand VII|plaza to the west that currently bears that name]] is called "Plaza de la Constitución" (Constitution Plaza).
