The Pensacola Historic District and the collection of historic buildings owned by the University of West Florida are extraordinary assets for the City of Pensacola and the region. This Master Plan provides a means of coordinating private and public investment in order to capitalize on those assets, increase the region’s economic and tax base, and improve the quality of life for residents of the Historic District, the city, and the region. The Plan was developed in an open, public process, engaging hundreds of people in creating a vision for the future that is based on consensus and has thus garnered widespread support.
The Master Plan Vision calls for developing the areas around the Historic District with mixed-use development imbued with the same character and scale as the district itself. The Plan provides for a continuous pattern of pedestrian-scale streets and development connecting to Old East Hill, the Waterfront, and Palafox Street. Revisions to Bayfront Park will create an interconnected system of waterfront parks as an amenity for the citizens of Pensacola. Modifications to street patterns will improve the character of the area and provide direct access to the district from I-110. Within the district, a series of guidelines for infill development will preserve and enhance the character of street spaces. The Museum and University properties will provide classroom and assembly facilities for educational programs that relate to Pensacola’s history, urban revitalization, and maritime legacy.
