Historic Savannah, a world renowned city known for its historic preservation and timeless charm, offers its visitors and residents a walk back in time. The elegance of this coastal community coupled with its historical elements woven throughout has gained national attention and acclaim. Savannah now has one of the largest landmark historic districts in the United States.
Historic preservation activity, an on-going private endeavor, was boosted in the 1940's when buildings in the Trustee's Garden area were restored. In the early 1950's several important public buildings were demolished. When historic Davenport House was threatened, seven courageous women formed the Historic Savannah Foundation and stayed the wrecker's hand at the Davenport House less than 24 hours before the demolition was to begin. Today, the foundation is a primary moving force behind Savannah's Historic District revitalization. It is a private, non-profit organization whose primary purpose is to stimulate public participation in historic preservation. Over the years most restoration has been done by individuals, one building at a time. Castle Home Builders has joined this effort - renovating and restoring beautiful buildings throughout Savannah's historic district.
