The street is present on the [[1812]] [[Pintado plan]], where it is labelled '''Calle de Palafox'''.
After a [[February 3]], [[1892]] ordinance by the provisional municipality of Pensacola municipal authority, the street was paved and [[Pensacola streetcar system|streetcar lines]] were placed by the [[Pensacola Terminal Company]].<ref>''[http://books.google.com/books?id=WGE4AAAAIAAJ The Federal Reporter]'', 1895.</ref>
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]].
