Morrell Park

Highlight • Monument

Tribute to Florence Martus, a Savannahian who is perhaps better known in worldwide maritime communities than in her own. From 1887 to 1931, she greeted ships entering Savannah by waving a cloth at approaching ships from the lighthouse on Cockspur Island, in search of her long-lost lover. Her fame spread and ships would return her greetings with a blast from the ship's horn. Many still sound a salute to her statue.

There are no monuments in this square, which pays homage to James Oglethorpe, the founder of Savannah. It was established in 1742 as Upper New Square, but later renamed after General Oglethorpe.
