One of Savannah’s oldest neighborhoods
Originally developed in 1917, Gordonston is known as Savannah's oldest bedroom community. The neighborhood was once a streetcar suburb along a trolley line that led to downtown. Today, the community remains committed to preserving the natural landscape and historic charm. Residents enjoy the scenic and quiet lifestyle that comes with living in the suburbs while still being close to Savannah's culture and activities. "You have really easy access to things coming into town," says Joel Solomon, Realtor at Century 21 Solomon Properties and Savannah local. "The city's most popular events are minutes away."
