Powerful Plans
A new story is set to unfold along the tranquil shores of the historic Savannah River.
Developed by The Kessler Collection, Savannah's Plant Riverside District will transform
the decommissioned 106-year-old Georgia Power plant building and surrounding 4.5-acre
waterfront property into an entertainment district complete with lodging and dining, cultural
and entertainment experiences, and more. The area has been closed to the public for more
than 100 years and is the largest piece of undeveloped, national historic district land in
the United States.
Among the plans for the riverfront district are 1.5 acres of public parks and plazas,
a quarter mile of new riverwalk, 670,000 square feet of entertainment and hospitality space,
more than 22,000 square feet of meeting and event space, live entertainment venues, and
three luxury hotels with a total of 419 guest rooms and suites. In addition to the culture
and amenities Plant Riverside District will bring to the area, it also creates 700 new job
opportunities for the community.

The overall venue intends to entertain all ages
with boutique hotels from the JW Marriott brand,
wine tasting rooms and rooftop bars, natural
science exhibits and a kids recreation area,
a 4,000-square-foot art gallery, and an outdoor
park honoring Martin Luther King Jr. that will
include a stage and seating for 700.
The anticipated opening of Savannah's Plant
Riverside District will take place in two phases:
Phase one will open in the first quarter of 2019,
with the remainder of the project scheduled
to open by the end of 2019.
