Wright Square
at Bull and East President Streets
Originally named for the Viscount Percival, the President of the colony’s board of Trustees, and later renamed for the Royal Governor James Wright, the square houses the U.S. Federal building, and the old Chatham County Court House. The square is adorned with monuments dedicated to two pioneers in Savannah's history. The Gordon monument, located in the center of the square, honors William Washington Gordon, founder of the Central of Georgia Railroad, and grandfather of Juliette Gordon Low. Wright Square is also the burial spot of Tomochichi, but no monument was erected until 1754 when the Colonial Dames placed a granite boulder in the square’s southeast corner.
