}}
[[Bayfront Parkway]] is an east-west roadway in downtown Pensacola. Bayfront runs from South [[Alcaniz Street]] eastbound, terminating at the mouth of the [[Pensacola Bay Bridge]]. West of Alcaniz, Bayfront is known as [[Main Street]]. Bayfront Parkway carries [[Florida State Road 196]] for the entirety of its length.
 
==Hurricane Ivan==
[[Hurricane Ivan]] destroyed most of [[Bayfront Parkway]] when it made landfall near Pensacola in September [[2004]]. There was an effort by then-State Representative [[Holly Benson]] to have Bayfront Parkway rebuilt as a two-lane roadway in order to increase public waterfront access, but ultimately Bayfront was rebuilt in its original four-lane configuration, and opened to traffic by the end of 2004.
