City Market is a mixed-use project in the northwest corner of the Historic District. The rehabilitation of the four-block area began in 1985. The result is a facility that economically could not be replicated today. City Market has established itself as a destination for entertainment, dining, and retailing in downtown Savannah. To create an anchor attraction that would attract both tourists and Savannah residents, the developer emulated its successful Torpedo Factory project in Alexandria, Virginia and established the Art Center at City Market. This group of working studios for artists occupies approximately 19000 sqft of space and has created an opportunity for other tenants of City Market to establish and operate viable food, entertainment, and retail businesses. In addition, City Market has three apartments and approximately 11000 sqft of office space. Ellis Square is immediately west of City Market and has an interactive fountain, information kiosk & an underground 1,100-space parking garage making it very easy to park in the heart of the historic & tourist area.

This large public park, which marks the southern edge of the Historic District, is ringed with bed and breakfasts and crowned with a beautiful fountain. They filmed Midnight in the Garden of Good & Evil here. So stay in the park, admire the Spanish moss, and imagine yourself next to John Cusack under the dripping Spanish moss.

It is primarily used for baseball, and is the home field of the Savannah Bananas, a professional exhibition team. From 2016 to 2022, the Bananas played in the Coastal Plain League collegiate summer baseball league, but in 2020 started a professional exhibition team, playing a game with unique rule variations that it calls "Banana Ball". Thanks to their unique promotions, over-the-top entertainment, and distinctive take on professional play, the Bananas achieved major internet fame and sold out every game for both their college summer and professional operations. The professional side also regularly tours minor-league and even major-league ballparks around the country. After the 2022 season, the Bananas shut down their college summer team and went all-in on "Banana Ball". The Bananas play about 30 games in Savannah each season, as well as about 40 in different locations around the U.S. As for the stadium, it was also the part-time home of the Savannah State University college baseball team. It was used from 1927 until 1959 for the annual Thanksgiving Day game between Savannah High School and Benedictine Academy. Known as "Historic Grayson Stadium" it was built in 1926. It holds 4,000 people.
