309 Punk MuseumThe 309 Punk Museum is a residential building in Pensacola, Florida constructed in the early 1900s. It was acquired by a group of youths from the punk rock scene after being purchased from HUD in 1987 and became a safe haven for local members of the aforementioned subculture throughout the ‘90s and 2000s. The house doubled as a living space and studio for the residents. 309 has gained notoriety over the years for its political activism as well as for certain residents who have since gone on to achieve global recognition. Regarded as a punk rock heritage site to many, the 309 Punk Museum Project was initiated in an effort to formally preserve the house and its history. HistoryRecords indicate that the 309 house was initially constructed in 1912 at 309 North 6th Avenue in Pensacola, Florida. Much of the estate’s early history is unknown, but Pensacola City Directory Records from 1920 indicate that the earliest known residents were employees of the L & N Railroad company[1], leading many to believe that the house might have been used as low cost lodging for railway employees. The property was purchased by a pair of married architects/artisans in 1987. Since at least the early 1990s, the owners rented 309 to members of the punk rock subculture. The rent was typically low, with various punks splitting the costs evenly. Though residency was transient at times, with residents coming and going in periodic intervals, residents and former residents often recognized a certain camaraderie regardless of stay duration. Political InvolvementPunk by its nature is a counterculture movement, and as a result, many of the residents’ work had heavy political overtones. Politically outspoken individuals who would go on to tour in bands such as This Bike is a Pipe Bomb and Dark Lion got their start practicing at the 309 house, playing in nearby clubs and venues. Residents created many zines and fliers, often political, distributing them by the thousands throughout Pensacola.In the 90’s, their activism focused on the then widespread fear of corporate globalization, though after the September 11th attack on the World Trade Center, many residents shifted focus to address the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Outside of the wars, activists at 309 focused on numerous issues including: animal rights, gender equality, LGBTQ liberation, immigration, and racial issues in the Pensacola community. ControversyThe Pensacola Bay Area has a notably cosmopolitan atmosphere, due in large part to its reliance on tourism and the military. This has allowed the punk scene in Pensacola to thrive as much as it did at the time[2]. However, the population of Pensacola at large still holds primarily traditionalist views typical of a southern state. Though the Pensacola Bay area is known today as both “The Redneck Riviera” and “The Gay Riviera” the latter moniker was not always so affectionately used as the former[3]. This at times resulted in a tense coexistence between the punk subculture and the moral traditionalists of the town. LegacyDespite the negative push back from certain citizens, the house is remembered in a largely positive light by many, being referred to as “legendary” by members of the punk rock subculture both in the local area and far outside Florida’s borders. Zine writer and former resident Aaron Cometbus featured the house in two of his narratives, providing a window into what the punk scene was like in the 90’s and 2000’s. The 309 Punk Museum ProjectThe 309 Punk Museum project is a non-profit fundraising effort aimed at purchasing the 309 Punk House as a punk heritage site. The project was founded in 2016 by former house members C. Scott Satterwhite and Terry Johnson, with Satterwhite assuming role of project president. Other members of the project include:
The 309 Punk Museum project not only aims to preserve the legacy of the home, but to keep it functional for future use as well. [4] Seeing as the building is roughly a century old, repairs will need to be made to keep it from falling apart. The house will also be renovated to allow for more studio space for projects such as zine printing, music recording, live performances, and housing the archive. Residential areas in the form of an Artist in Residence Program, will also be maintained to allow Punk artists to continue living within the museum walls, as they have done for decades. On January 1st 2019, the down payment of the house was met.
