Savannah's Historic Waterfront

Historic River Street

  Savannah’s Historic Waterfront River Street 
runs along Savannah River 
with paved with 200 year old cobblestones. 

For over 48 years, it played an integral role in the 
Atlantic slave trade until 1798 
in which the Georgia legislature 
banned slave trade from Africa. 

Home to more
 than 70 businesses, shops and 
restaurants the century old buildings, 
once warehouses holding King Cotton 
are now antique shops, galleries, 
nightspots, and elegant inns and hotels.

After over a century it was rediscovered in the 1970s
 by local landowners and planners 
which revived the 
history and glory of old River Street. 

One of the busiest ports in 
America you can take a ferry ride, 
dinner cruise or 
just watch ships from around the globe.

There is so much History in this street!!
