Description

The Savannah Downtown Historic District Board of Review (HDBR) is recommending a text amendment to Section 7.8 Savannah Downtown Historic District by adding 412 Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard (PIN 20031 36010) to the Contributing Resources Map.  Based on Section 3.16.7 Amendments to a Contributing Resources Map, the HDBR may initiate the process of amending the Contributing Resources Map for a local historic district.  

Recommendation

On November 8, 2023, the HDBR voted to recommend amending the Contributing Resources Map to include one resource of exceptional importance with regard to historic and architectural significance that was built in the Downtown Historic District within the Period of Significance (1870-1923) but not previously listed as “contributing/historic.” This resource is located at 412 Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard.
