Review:

Washington Square is named in honor of the first president of the United States, George Washington, who visited the new city of Savannah in 1791, the same year as the square's founding.

Prior to its dedication, the square had been the home of the Trustees' Garden, which served as an important testing ground for experimental crop plantings in the city, including mulberry, indigo, and hemp plants. Today, the square, which is located along Houston Street between Congress and Bryan Streets, offers a lovely dog-friendly atmosphere and is home to some of the city's most beautiful homes and businesses, including the International Seamen's House, which now houses the lovely Brice A. Kimpton Hotel.
