My community is centered around Washington Square in Savannah GA. It is a frequent gathering spot for neighbors to come together to exchange news, share a drink or play croquet. It also acts as a hub for drawing additional neighbors living in Green, and Warren Squares. Many neighbors are also members of a variety of local churches and golf clubs, which also extends the community on an individual basis.
We are located in the Historic District of Savannah GA. Restoration of homes and interest in or frustrations with historic preservation are common points of interest. Also residents are are concerned about tourism and residential life issues. Additionally neighbors treasure the walkable city lifestyle Savannah provides which makes festivals, concerts and musical events, shopping, running errands, eating out and entertainment within walkable distance from our homes.
Most residents are retired and many are transplants from Northern States. We are concerned about environmental pollution from the cargo ships coming and going from the port, noise pollution and littering associated with the tourism industry. We are located on the highest point of the city and so flooding is rarely a problem in our neighborhood but we are concerned about flooding in neighborhoods and roads to the south of the Historic District as well as in the marshes surrounding the city.
Our district includes many homeless people and we are concerned that there are not enough resources available to them. We are also very concerned with childhood poverty and hunger. Many neighbors volunteer weekly at the Emmaus House feeding site as well as at Kid's café where we assemble thousands of afterschool meals a day.
