Gordonston

Please use caution and your best judgement while enjoying the Juliette Gordon Low Park. A large tree fell and is pending removal. Georgia Power determined that there are no downed live wires so the park will remain open.

Founded in 1917, Gordonston is Savannah's oldest bedroom community. The area used to be part of the Gordon family farm. The family was well-to-do and Gordon Low's father was a railroad magnate. Juliette would go on to found the Girl Scouts of America.
