The Graffiti Bridge is an interesting display of street art. I am informed it changes on a regular basis. Some of the artist have talent and hopefully will make a successful career using that talent. Better here than on some nice buildings.

It's OK, you basically just drive under it. The art changes and it's usually pretty good. It was an area that the BLM protest in Pensacola took place, mostly peaceful. They are constructing a round about in the area so I'm not sure you can get to it as of December 2020. Along with the 3 mile bridge to Pensacola beach being out due to hurricane Sally. Supposed to be fixed by summer of 2021 hopefully.

How often is graffiti encouraged? Well, here it is, on a railroad bridge, with ever-changing work. In fact, some ladies were adding to it when we were there.
If odd things in America are an attraction to you, this is a fun place to see. It's on 17th Avenue off Bayfront Parkway. If construction is still in progress, then head up 14th Avenue to Wright Street, and turn south on 17th, like we did. There is parking just south of the bridge, on the east side.
Either way, it's a funky respite from the norm.

It's just what it says, a rail bridge covered graffiti. Recently the theme seems to be Alzheimers Awareness. Nicely done.
Very limited parking on either side and be careful walking around as the are no sidewalks and lots of traffic.

We found the bridge easily and used the large parking lot besides it. If you walk up to the railroad tracks you can't see
down to Navarre. The art work was eclectic-a little bit of everything. When we drove by 2 days later, it was different.

We went to see this bridge because there is one in Atlanta that is awesome but we was disappointed. Looked kind of dirty and nasty. Not the the art but the area needed some cleaning. Nothing special to us.

Yes, we've driven under this bridge for years, but the graffiti is amateur at best. It's not worth a trip or the trouble.

Fun stop to get out and take a photo or two - the art on it is amazingly good - although I understand it changes and is open for all to decorate. There's room to park near it.

Unless one is fortuate enough to live in the Pensacola/Gulf Breeze area the Graffiti Bridge website is a must. Paintings change almost daily. I first visited Pensacola in the early '70s and the painting was late night graffiti. Now, artists come in teams with videos recorders, paint rollers and a theme. Except for a few painters with limited artistic ability (those who think the populus want to see the "F" bomb) the art is positive. It's joked that if the paint were to be removed, the bridge would collapse!
