Spanish River Boulevard is a short east–west highway in Boca Raton, Palm Beach County, Florida.
The eastern is signed as State Road 800 (SR 800), though the western segment was formerly SR 800 as well.
The western terminus of the boulevard is at Military Trail (County Road 809 or CR 809), but the state route does not begin until Federal Highway (U.S. Route 1 or US 1).
Both the state route and the road itself terminate at Ocean Boulevard (SR A1A) near the Atlantic Ocean shoreline at the northeastern corner of Spanish River Park, near Highland Beach.
Spanish River Boulevard provides the only access to SR A1A and the Boca Raton beaches in northern Boca Raton.
It is one of only three beach access roads within the Boca Raton city limits, the other two being Palmetto Park Road (CR 798) and Camino Real.
SR 800 is one of two state highways in the x00 series that does not follow the numbering system; the other is SR 300, the designation for the St. George Island Bridge.
All other x00 routes are major cross-state diagonals.
Route description.
West of US 1.
The western terminus of Spanish River Boulevard is at its intersection with Military Trail (CR 809), in the Lynn University area of Boca Raton, Florida.
The route progresses eastward as a four-lane boulevard through several governmental, commercial and residential developments.
The highway narrows briefly to three lanes (two westbound and one eastbound) as it crosses over Interstate 95 (I-95) and the Tri-Rail tracks.
Spanish River Boulevard widens back to four lanes after the overpass, where it serves as the northern boundary of the Boca Raton Airport, as it passes some large hangars and intersects with Airport Road.
From there, the highway passes along the northern edge of Florida Atlantic University and the Boca Raton campus of Palm Beach State College.
The next junction intersects with FAU Boulevard, providing access to the campuses, as well as access to Interstate 95 (I-95).
The access to Interstate 95 was completed on February 28, 2018.
The same intersection is set to provide access to and from Yamato Rd (SR 794) by the end of March 2018.
After the signal, the road soon enters a large condominium development along its southern side.
At the intersection with Northwest 4th Avenue, Spanish River Boulevard turns to the southeast, passing several local residences.
SR 800 begins in downtown Boca Raton, just east of the tracks of the Florida East Coast Railway and Dixie Highway.
The route passes begins near a strip mall as a four-lane boulevard and continues east from an intersection with U.S. Route 1 (Federal Highway).
After leaving downtown Boca Raton, State Road 800 crosses the Intracoastal Waterway on a large four-lane drawbridge and reaches its terminus at an intersection with State Road A1A (North Ocean Boulevard) along the beachside of Boca Raton.

It is the seat of the gmina (administrative district) called Gmina Garbów.
It lies approximately north-west of the regional capital Lublin.
The village lies on the Kurówka river, and has a mill and a sugar refinery.
History.
The village was first mentioned in 1326 as a seat of a separate parish.
In the 15th century it was a personal property of the Odrowąż clan.
In 1785 it was sold to Jacek Jezierski, the castellan of Łuków and a marshall of the szlachta who made the village receive the Magdeburg Law.
During the Kościuszko Uprising of 1794 the town was a battlefield of the last skirmish between the forces of Muscovy and those of Poland.

Chatata, meaning "clear water", is the original Cherokee name of an area located in Bradley County, Tennessee.
Today the name survives in references to a number of locations in Bradley County, most notably Chatata Valley in the northeastern part of the county.
Chatata was also the original name of an unincorporated community in this region now known as Tasso.
Description.
The area originally called Chatata by the Cherokee consists of a geographical area located predominantly in northeastern Bradley County, but can also refer to locations west of this area.
The name is best recognized in Chatata Valley, as well as Chatata Creek, which flows through this valley into the Hiwassee River to the north, and Little Chatata Creek, which flows in the next valley to the west.
This area is located in the Ridge and Valley physiographic province of the Great Appalachian Valley, with a series of paralleling ridges running approximately north-northeast with valleys in between.
The Hiwassee forms the northern boundary of Bradley County, and the Chatata area contains some of the lowest elevations in the county.
Chatata Valley and portions of the surrounding valleys reportedly contain some of the most fertile soils in the region, which were originally cultivated by the Cherokee.
The region contains a number of sites that were significant to the Cherokee, including Rattlesnake Springs and Beeler Spring.
Today, Chatata Valley and the surrounding valleys remain some of the most productive agricultural areas in the region, with many large farms that raise cattle and grow crops including corn, soybeans, tobacco, and fruits and vegetables, as well as some dairy farms.
History.
Before the arrival of the first European settlers, this area was inhabited by the Cherokee.
A number of Cherokee settlements were located in the Chatata region, including a settlement called Fishtown, which was located two miles south of present day Tasso in present day Cleveland.
The Cherokee reportedly held council at Rattlesnake Springs and Beeler Spring, and a number of Cherokee burial grounds are known to be located in the region including at Rattlesnake Springs and on Beeler Ridge.
The Chatata region was reportedly a preferred farming region to the Cherokee, due to its fertile soils and excellent water sources.
In the early nineteenth century European settlers began moving into the Chatata region in anticipation of the forced removal of the Cherokee, and in 1821, the Indian Agency, the official liaison between the U.S. government and the Cherokee Nation, was established in present day Charleston on the Hiwassee River in north...
The Chatata region played a significant role during the Cherokee removal, with operations headquartered at Fort Cass in Charleston and several internment camps located in the region, with one of the largest at Rattlesnake Springs.
The legislation creating Bradley County by the Tennessee General Assembly on February 10, 1836 mandated that county governmental activities be held at McCaslin's Methodist Campground in Chatata Valley until the location for the county seat of Cleveland was chosen.
As part of the United States Bicentennial celebration, the Bradley County Quarterly Court held a meeting at this location in 1976.
Early on, Chatata Valley had mills, stores, churches, two schools, and a physician.
The Chatata Seminary, a boarding school, was established in Chatata Valley in 1867, and operated until about 1878.
The name Chatata was given to the Tasso community at some point before the American Civil War, before being renamed in 1905.
The railroad was constructed between Cleveland and Charleston in phases during the 1850s.
Today, the Chatata region contains a number of historical sites, including a few homes that predate the Civil War.
During the Civil War, Union troops under the command of general William T. Sherman camped in the valley directly east of Tasso and the railroad on multiple occasions in 1863.
These troops reportedly abandoned at least one cannon in Little Chatata Creek south of Tasso after it got stuck in the creekbed while they were crossing.
This was also near the location of an unsuccessful attempt in the spring of 1864 by Confederate troops to destroy a passing union train with an explosive placed on the tracks, which instead resulted in the destruction of a passing Confederate train.
A Confederate cavalry sword believed to have been from this wreck was accidentally discovered by a teenager in 1970.
Troops under the command of Sherman also camped at the Blue Springs Encampments and Fortifications in southern Bradley County.
The name Chatata is also archaeologically, geologically, and paleontologically significant because of the so-called Chatata Wall excavated in 1891 in northwestern Bradley County.
That year, Isaac Hooper noticed a line of sandstone rocks protruding from the surface of his farm every or so over a gently curving arc about long.
Unusual symbols seemed to be inscribed on one of these surface stones.
Visiting New York City professor Albert Leighton Rawson took an interest in this outcropping of rocks.
Rawson (1829–1902) was a historian, writer and spiritualist who was the author of many late 19th century religious tracts and books including "Evolution of Israel's God".
