Changes

'''Bayfront Auditorium''' (known as the '''Pensacola Municipal Auditorium''' until [[1988]]) was a building that sat for fifty years at the foot of [[Palafox Street]], overlooking [[Pensacola Bay]]. It was demolished in [[2005]].

Planning for the auditorium was begun in the early 1950s. The development faced early opposition from the [[Saenger Theatre]]'s owners and others who questioned "the right of the city to levy amusement taxes which would tax the theatres for the construction of a competitive business."<ref>"Saenger Continues Fight On Pensacola Auditorium."
