[[Palafox Street]] is a major and historic north-south artery in Pensacola. It serves as the dividing line for all the city's east-west streets. Palafox is also the southernmost leg of [[US Highway 29]], which terminates at Palafox and [[Garden Street]]s in downtown Pensacola. Palafox Street is named for [[Wikipedia:José de Palafox y Melzi|José de Palafox y Melzi]], a Spanish nobleman and military hero.
Palafox Street south of [[Garden Street|Garden]] is also known as '''Palafox Place''' and is one of Pensacola's most bustling retail districts, although its significance has waned in recent years as retailers have moved out toward shopping centers and malls. The southern terminus of Palafox Street is at [[Plaza de Luna]] on [[Pensacola Bay]]. Its northern terminus is just north of [[Michigan Avenue]]/[[Brent Lane]], where the road splits into [[Pensacola Boulevard]] (US 29) and [[Old Palafox Highway]].
