Taylor Street

Taylor Street is a prominent street in Savannah, Georgia. Located in its downtown section between Jones Street to the north and Gordon Street to the south, it runs for about 0.76 miles from Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in the west to East Broad Street in the east.

The street is named for general Zachary Taylor, a hero of the Mexican–American War. (Nearby Taylor Square is named for Susie King Taylor, not Zachary.) The street is entirely within Savannah Historic District, a National Historic Landmark District.

Taylor Street passes through four squares on their northern side. From west to east:


 * Chatham Square
 * Monterey Square
 * Taylor Square
 * Whitefield Square
