The Squares of Savannah Luciana Spracher, Municipal Archives Director City of Savannah
The Squares of Savannah Luciana Spracher, Municipal Archives Director City of Savannah The Original Six Squares Upon establishing the settlement of Savannah in 1733, General James Oglethorpe laid out a unique town plan utilizing a grid system composed of building blocks called wards. Each ward included a central square surrounded by four tythings divided into 10 building lots for residences, and four trust lots reserved for the town’s public buildings. The central squares have always been public spaces, but they have fulfilled a variety of functions over time, evolving into the lush urban forest Savannah is known for today. 1. Johnson Square was Savannah’s first square, laid out in 1733 by General Oglethorpe, and named for South Carolina Governor Robert Johnson, who provided aid to the colonists. The cornerstone for the fifty-foot obelisk honoring Revolutionary War hero Nathanael Greene was laid in 1825 by the Marquis de Lafayette. 2. Wright Square was selected by Oglethorpe as the final resting place for Tomochichi, chief of the local Yamacraw tribe, as a sign of his importance to Savannah. Today a monument of Georgia granite in the southeast corner honors this important leader in Savannah’s history, as does the Tomochichi Federal Courthouse overlooking what is also called “courthouse square.” 3. Ellis Square was home to a series of public markets until 1954 when the last City Market building was demolished for a parking garage, helping to spark Savannah’s world-famous historic preservation movement. Ellis Square has since been rehabilitated into a new outdoor public space, serving as an anchor for the surrounding City Market district 4. -

It is only fitting that since his turpentine cups were introduced on our campus that we choose as a theme for our annual "The pine in Geor- gia industry." It is to the pines that make our future bright, to a dream realized, and to the dreamer that our yearbook is dedicated. Organizations Social Clubs IV. ATHLETICS V. FEATURES VI.
