Historic District
Many residents of the 2.5-square-mile Historic Landmark District can claim the city’s verdant squares as their front yards. Although the north end of the District is commercial in character, numerous blocks of the area are solidly residential. Historic homes in need of restoration are still available. Newcomers will also find a good selection of restored homes, the result of 50 years of preservation efforts, and new construction in the form of townhouse/condominiums crafted to blend into the historic atmosphere of the District. Savannah’s Historic District is bordered by River Street, Gaston Street, East Broad Street and MLK, Jr Boulevard.
Victorian District
Adjacent to the Historic District, this first southward expansion of the city is attracting more and more folks interested in restoring two- and three-story frame houses in need of repair. The area becomes more popular in this regard as the number of restorable houses in the Historic District shrinks. Savannah’s Victorian District and adjacent Thomas Square neighborhood is located south of Forsyth Park and north of Victory Drive. The Baldwin Park neighborhood is one of the city’s most diverse communities.
