Historic Savannah Foundation

Historic Savannah Foundation, Inc. (HSF) is a local, non-profit preservation organization dedicated to protecting and preserving Savannah’s heritage. Borne out of threats to demolish the Davenport House for a parking lot, HSF was organized and chartered in 1955 to preserve the buildings, squares and neighborhoods in the City of Savannah. Originally, HSF focused most of its attention on saving endangered buildings in the National Historic Landmark District. Over the last few decades, the organization has expanded its programs and service area to include all of Savannah and Chatham County – which now boasts more than a dozen historic districts.

The Historic Savannah Foundation is the local partner of the National Trust for Historic Preservation in Savannah, Georgia.
