Review:
Johnson Square was the first public square constructed in Savannah, named in honor of colonial South Carolina governor Robert Johnson.
The square, which is located between Bryan and Congress Streets on Bull Street, remains the city's largest public square today, best known as the interment site of Revolutionary War hero Nathaniel Greene, who died in 1786 and was originally buried at the city's Colonial Park Cemetery.
A sundial at the park pays tribute to colony founder Colonel William Bull, showcasing four panels, a bronze dial, and a panel depicting a 1734 map of the city. The square is home to the city's financial district, showcasing structures such as the Johnson Square Business Center, the city's first skyscraper, constructed in 1911.
