Savannah is one of the most unique and historic urban areas, originally designed in 1733 by Colony of Georgia founder James Oglethorpe. Further park expansion was orchestrated as part of the city's Oglethorpe Plan throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, bringing the park's public square count up to a maximum of 24 by 1851. Today, visitors can explore the city's historic squares, which are home to some of the most iconic attractions of the Savannah Historic District.
