In 1733, Georgia became the 13th and last of England's original colonies when English General James Edward Oglethorpe navigated his way up the Savannah River and laid out the lots and public squares that make Savannah one of America's most unique cities. S avannah a true Old World City, still retains Oglethorpe's original design. Oglethorpe's city plan, where each square was an area of fortification as well as a place for public gathering, has been heralded as a masterpiece of urban design. Beautiful homes surround these lovely squares, replete with gardens and courtyards. Traffic is slow and touring is done by foot, pedicab, horse drawn carriage and trolley.
