Wassaw Sound
Lamos (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: Lamos.
Yachting venue olympic 1996. In addition to the four racecourses—course A in Wassaw Sound and B, C, and D in the Atlantic
Ocean—the yachting venue included a satellite
Olympic Village in downtown Savannah, an
Olympic marina on Wilmington Island, and a
temporary day marina on the northern side of
Wassaw Sound. The Riverfront Marriott, locatedin the historic district, served as the satellite
Olympic Village. Sail Harbor Marina on Wilmington
Island, located about 15 mi (24 km)
southeast of the Village, was the site of the
Olympic marina, and the day marina was a
150,000 sq ft (14,000 sq m) barge moored at
the mouth of the Wilmington River.
The day marina, the first of its kind to be
used at an Olympic Games, enabled athletes
to store their boats safely and securely in
close proximity to the racecourses, thus eliminating
the long sail or tow for all events except
the keelboats (Solings and Stars). The National
Weather Service provided significant
on-site support with excellent, highly detailed
forecasting.

Forsyth Park
AKpilotEMT (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: AKpilotEMT.
Historic Savannah’s largest, most popular park is Forsyth, bordered by Whitaker St. on the West, Drayton St. on the East, Gaston St. on the North, and Park Avenue on the South. The park covers 20 acres, and Savannah’s dedicated preservationists have fought and won the battle to keep it as close as possible to its original design.
Designed in the 1850’s, the park was named for former Georgia Governor John Forsyth (1780-1841), and was created in the style of the French Empire. It’s magnificent fountain is said to be a copy of the fountain in the Place de la Concorde and was renovated in 1961 by CarstenTiedeman. A plaque was installed to commemorate his father, Judge G. W. Tiedeman.
In one section of the park is the Fragrant Garden for the Blind; in others are monuments and memorials to various historical figures.
The fountain and the park have been seen in a number of movies, including Forest Gump and Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.

Mercer House
jbottero (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: jbottero.
Designed by John S. Norris for General Hugh Weedon Mercer (great-grandfather of the songwriter Johnny Mercer) construction of the house began in 1860. Construction was interrupted by the American Civil War, and finally completed around 1868 by the new owner, John Wilder.
For a period in the twentieth century, the building was used as the Savannah Shriners Alee Temple. It then lay vacant for a decade until in 1969 when Jim Williams, one of Savannah’s earliest and most dedicated private restorationists, bought the house and restored it.
Before Hansford's death, as retold in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, the house had already been the scene of two deaths. In 1913 a previous owner tripped over the second floor banister, fractured his hip, and suffered a concussion, dying three days later. In 1964, a boy chasing pigeons on the roof fell over the edge and impaled himself on the iron fence below.

Fort Pulaski
kjfitz (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: kjfitz.
When completed in 1847 with its 25 million bricks and walls 7.5 feet thick, Fort Pulaski was the ultimate defense system of its day. Part of a series of forts which protected major seaports from foreign attack, the stronghold would not be tested until the Civil War. Seized by Georgia state troops early in the war, the fort was besieged by Federal forces. Here on April 11, 1862, defense strategy changed worldwide when Union rifled cannon, firing from more than a mile away on Tybee Island, first over came a masonry fortification.
The effectiveness of rifled artillery, which fired a bullet-shaped projectile with great accuracy at long range, was clearly demonstrated. After only 30 hours of bombardment, the walls were breached and the Confederates surrendered. The fall of Fort Pulaski tightened the Union blockade of southern ports and kept Savannah from exporting cotton and importing military supplies and civilian goods so vital to the Confederacy. But more importantly, the success of the new weapon marked the end of the era of masonry fortifications.
The commander of the Union forces captured the military world's surprise in these words... "The result of this bombardment must cause...a change in the construction of fortifications as radical as that foreshadowed in naval architecture by the conflict between the Monitor and Merrimac. No works of stone or brick can resist the impact of rifled artillery of heavy caliber." Major General David Hunter, U.S. Army.

kkeps (VirtualGlobetrotting)
By: kkeps.
"The "Barracks" as it is fondly known, opened its doors in 1870, complete with stables. The barracks was completed on August 20, 1870 at a cost of more than $28,000.
By 1895, the department boasted two patrol wagons - one open and one closed, a one-horse drawn ambulance, a two-horse drawn ambulance, 32 horses, and a number of bicycles. The department modernized in 1921 with the addition of 11 automobiles. it took approximately 25 years to entirely replace the horse with the gasoline engine.
Construction was completed on the city jail, or station house, on October 7, 1937. The total expense for construction of the jail and renovations to the barracks was approximately $100,000. The jail was closed in 1977 and all city prisoners were tranferred to the County facility, then located at Montgomery Street and Oglethorpe Avenue.
Today, the exterior of the building facing Ogelthorpe stands true to its original form, while an addition was erected to the back of the building.

The Low House
"Andrew Low and his wife, Sarah Hunter Low, began this house in 1847 with the help of architect John S. Norris. Their plan to live here with their three children was wrecked by the death of four-year-old Andrew, then Sarah Low herself died a few months later. After years of loneliness, Andrew was married to Mary Couper Stiles, who bore him four daughters and one son, William Mackay Low. William was called "Billow" by Juliette Magill "Daisy" Gordon, to whom he was married at Christ Church in 1886. They lived in and traveled from this imposing stucco-over-brick mansion. The marriage of Daisy and Billow was unhappy, childless, and soon they parted. Daisy Low had daughters aplenty, though, when she founded the Girl Scouts of the United States of America in 1912. The Andrew Low House was visited by William Makepeace Thackery and General Robert Edward Lee."

Statue of John Wesley
John Wesley (28 June [O.S. 17 June] 1703 – 2 March 1791) was a Church of England cleric and Christian theologian. Wesley is largely credited, along with his brother Charles Wesley, as founding the Methodist movement which began when he took to open-air preaching in a similar manner to George Whitefield. In contrast to George Whitefield's Calvinism, Wesley embraced the Arminian doctrines that were dominant in the 18th-century Church of England. Methodism in both forms was a highly successful evangelical movement in the United Kingdom, which encouraged people to experience Jesus Christ personally.
Wesley's writing and preachings provided the seeds for both the modern Methodist movement and the Holiness movement, which encompass numerous denominations across the world. In addition, he refined Arminianism with a strong evangelical emphasis on the Reformed doctrine of justification by faith.

Though he wrote novels, short stories and critical essays, his first love was poetry. His work earned many awards including the Pulitzer Prize (1930), National Book Award (1954), and the National medal of literature (1969). He was a member of national Academy of Arts and Sciences and held the Chair of poetry of the Library of Congress (1950-1952).
