Savannah and its historic harbor front are captured here at the start of the 2020s, showing a landscape defined by its deep coastal roots and institutional growth. The city's legendary layout is anchored by landmarks like Yamacraw Bluff and the Savannah College of Art and Design, while the eastern marshes transition into the Fort Pulaski National Monument at the edge of the Wilmington River. Cultural and local history is deeply legible through numerous burial grounds, from the central Colonial Park Cem to the sprawling Bonaventure Cem and Hillcrest Abbey East Cem. The map illustrates the city’s expansion into diverse residential districts such as Carver Village, Tatnsville, and Bona Bella, juxtaposed against the vast tidal wetlands of the Savannah National Wildlife Refuge to the north and the industrial infrastructure of the Eugene E Talmadge Memorial Bridge.
