Il se trouve désormais dans la réserve naturelle de Sapelo Island National Estuarine Research Reserve (SINERR) . Il est inscrit au Registre national des lieux historiques depuis le 26 août 1997 sous le n° 97000335. Historique Le phare a été construit en 1820. Il a été conçu et construit par Winslow Lewis (en). Il s'agit du deuxième plus ancien phare en brique du pays et du plus ancien phare survivant parmi les phares conçus par Winslow Lewis. Le phare, le bâtiment à carburant, la citerne, la base du feu de 1905, les ruines de la fortification et le feu directionnel du phare avant de Sapelo Island ont été ajoutés au registre national des lieux historiques en 1997. Il y avait quinze lampes de Lewis avec des réflecteurs de 41 cm. Dans les années 1850, la tour a été surélevée de 3 m et une lentille de Fresnel de quatrième ordre a été installée en 1854. Elle a été retirée pendant la guerre de Sécession. Après une tempête de 1867, elle a été réparée et rallumée en 1868. La tour a été endommagée par un puissant ouragan en 1898. Un tour pyramidale à claire-voie de 30 m de haut avec une lentille de Fresnel de troisième ordre a été construit en 1905. Cette tour a été démantelée et transférée en 1934 sur l'île Fox du Sud, dans le lac Michigan. Le phare de 1820 est resté inactif de 1905 à 1998, date à laquelle il a retrouvé son apparence de 1890 et a été rallumé (avec une lumière et une lentille modernes). Il est maintenant géré par le ministère des Ressources naturelles de Géorgie (Georgia Department of Natural Resources (en)) et est non officiel. L'île, une réserve naturelle, est accessible par ferry, du lundi au vendredi. Description Le phare est une tour cylindrique en brique avec galerie et lanterne de 20 m de haut.

Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department

The Savannah-Chatham Metropolitan Police Department (SCMPD) was the defunct primary law enforcement agency for the city of Savannah, Georgia, United States, as well Chatham County, Georgia. It was founded in 2005 when the Savannah Police Department and the Chatham County Police Department merged. In June 2017, the Savannah-Chatham Metro Police Department split after 12 years for being unable to resolve issues of poor response times, the legality of the Mayor of Savannah naming the police chief, and other issues. Now the city is policed by the Savannah Police Department and the unincorporated parts of Chatham County (starting on Feb 1, 2018) by the newly formed Chatham County Police Department. The Chatham County Sheriff's Department will aid the County Police until they are fully staffed. The new chief of the Chatham County Police Department is Jeffrey M. Hadley. On August 27, 2018, Roy W. Minter, Jr. became the Chief of Police of the Savannah Police Department. References External links Official Website

Savannah Civic Center

The Savannah Civic Center is a multi-purpose facility located in Savannah, Georgia, in Savannah Historic District. Built in 1974, the facility consists of an arena, theater, ballroom, and exhibit halls. Throughout the years, the center has hosted various concerts, conventions, exhibits, high school and college graduations, trade shows, theatre, ballet, and comedy shows. Each year, the civic center hosts nearly 900 events, including the Savannah Tire Hockey Classic, which awards the "Thrasher Cup" and numerous meetings are held in the building's meeting wings. It was the home to the Savannah Bees basketball team, the Continental Basketball Association's Savannah Spirits basketball team, and the Savannah Rug Ratz soccer team of the EISL. In 1986 and 1987, the arena hosted the Big South Conference's men's basketball tournament. New arena In 2017, the city council voted to build a new area, west of downtown. The aging MLK Jr Arena proved to be too small to attract bigger acts and the repairs needed to bring the facility up to code were too costly. Initial plans saw the removal of the arena solely. In June 2019, the council voted to demolish the entire civic center to create more green space in accordance with "The Oglethorpe Plan." Destruction of the center and renovation of the lot will take at least four years, based on the timeline recommended by the Urban Land Atlanta Institute. A campaign to "Save the Mercer" theater inside the Civic Center has been initiated by a longtime Savannah resident, Paul Mazo. Mazo told a local TV station that city officials indicated a preservation campaign will "open the door to some [needed] community discussion." The new arena, originally known as Savannah Arena and subsequently renamed Enmarket Arena after securing a naming rights agreement in July 2021, opened in the first half of 2022. The estimated cost of the project is $165 million. Perkins + Will have been named the firm in charge of designing the arena, while AECOM Hunt is in charge of construction. City Council has stated there are no plans to demolish the Civic Center until three to five years after the new arena is built. In June 2024, the Savannah city council voted 7–1 in favor of demolishing the MLK Jr Arena and renovating the Johnny Mercer Theatre, ballroom and community meeting spaces at an estimated net cost of $90 to $120 million.

Savannah High School (Georgia)

Savannah High School is a public high school located in Savannah, Georgia, United States. Campus Savannah High is now located at 400 Pennsylvania Avenue. History Savannah High School was originally located on Washington Avenue between East and West Atlantic Avenues. The original building, built by the WPA and designed by William Bordley Clarke Sr., was once the largest public school building in the United States. The foundation of the original building had been built as a luxury hotel, but the owners went bankrupt in the Great Depression and the City of Savannah took over the unfinished building. The three-story brick and mortar structure included two interior courtyards, one of which held a rifle range for the ROTC as well as several circular interior fire escape slides, which have since been sealed off. The distance around the interior hallway was in excess of one quarter mile. Today, that building houses the Savannah Arts Academy, the only public high school for the arts in Savannah. Academics The Savannah High School campus hosts two separate programs of study: Liberal Studies at Savannah High School Law and Criminal Justice at Savannah High School Athletics Savannah High School has competed in Region 3-AAA since 2016. The school is a member of the Georgia High School Association.
