This view centers on the Greene Monument in Johnson Square, Savannah, a memorial to Maj. Gen. Nathanael Greene, the Rhode Island-born officer who led the Continental Army's Southern campaign during the Revolutionary War. Greene died in 1786 at Mulberry Grove, a plantation near Savannah, and the city honored him with this marble monument in one of the squares laid out in the 1730s when Savannah was founded. The memorial reflects the early nineteenth-century habit of raising public monuments to Revolutionary heroes, and it remains one of the city's best-known civic landmarks.
