12th Avenue Shopping & Entertainment

Posted by Webmaster in Pensacola, Where to Shop | 0 comments

As hard as other cities try to preserve character and local identity on their main streets, nowhere else is it done better than on 12th Avenue in Pensacola. On this street, you will find locally owned and named shops, independent drug stores, small schools and churches, an oak tree alley, and delicious locally owned bakeries and restaurants. This is truly a neighborhood street, with all the amenities one finds for day-to-day living, without any nationally branded storefronts and chains.

Missing from this 2.2-mile stretch, from Cervantes to Fairfield, are large-hot parking lots, turning lanes, medians and fast moving traffic. Present are beautiful homes, historic buildings, sidewalks, and shops and restaurants where owners care and pay attention to every customer who walks in the door. Visit this unique avenue and experience an area that is not “Anywhere U.S.A.” but uniquely Pensacola, FL
