Crawford Square (Savannah, Georgia)

It is south of Greene Square and east of Colonial Park Cemetery on the eastern edge of the Savannah Historic District.

[3] Crawford ran for the U.S. presidency in 1824 but came in third, after winner John Quincy Adams and runner-up Andrew Jackson.

Crawford Square has also retained its cistern, a holdover from early fire fighting practices.

[5] After a major fire in 1820 firemen maintained duty stations in the squares, each of which was equipped with a storage cistern.

[7] The Lady Chablis lived in the square prior to her rise to fame after her appearance in John Berendt's non-fiction novel Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
