Savannah's remarkable city plan is distinguished from those of previous colonial towns by its repeated pattern of connected neighborhoods,multiple squares, streets, and designed expansion into lands held by the city (the common). It is unique in the history of urban planning in a number of respects, not the least of which is that the squares allow for more open space in Savannah than in any city layout in history. Savannah's downtown area is the largest National Historic Landmark District in the United States.
I'm learning to love my city,my Savannah it taught me,and who am I to be so cold to her? I thank you my dear Savannah, for making me, me.
[these pictures showed me why i love my city so much, thank you for inspiring and bringing about that love]

Went through all the pictures and they all looked good. My daughter lives in Savannah and I am going to visit her this week. I have only one small objection. Most of the pictures are not captioned except for numbers. It would help put some context into them if you gave a more complete description about the location
But, thanks. This helps a lot

Great galleries! Liked the 6 pence pub particularly. It reminds me of when I used to live in the UK.
