Bubble Alley, the popular public art display made up of thousands of colorful vinyl bubbles, will be taken down on January 17. The aerial display suspended over Intendencia Street between Jefferson and Tarragona was originally launched as part of 2022 Foo Foo Festival but became such a popular destination and “selfie” spot that the DIB made the decision to keep the bubbles up as long as possible. 

Nathan Holler, co-owner of The Dog House, a landmark Palafox restaurant and gathering place for nearly five decades, is the newest member of the Downtown Improvement Board.

Financing is in place and design plans underway for construction of two public restrooms at the south and north end of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Plaza on North Palafox St. The public facilities are a joint project of the City of Pensacola, which approved the plan several weeks ago, and the Downtown Improvement Board.
