Savannah's City Hall

Savannah is on the Savannah River and River Street is a must do.
Lots to see and do along the river and actually for many blocks
into the city. It is a great walking town, with many restaurants
and things to do.

Interestingly, Savannah allows open containers on the street.
It is a fun town after all.

Savannah's new fire boat "Courageous" is located right along the river.
A new station is under construction across the river and will become
the new home for the boats when opened.

EMS in Savannah and all of Chatham County is contracted to Southside Fire/EMS.
In addition to providing EMS, Southside provides fire protection for some 120,000
residents in a 245 sq mile area with 23 stations and approximately 360 career
and volunteers.
