Savannah, GA, is known for its alluring coastal landscapes, unblemished original architecture and long-lasting historical events that make this town one of a kind. In the summer of 2020, a revolutionary contribution to River Street was made: the Plant Riverside District.

Located on West River Street lies 4.5 acres of fun-loving entertainment created by the Kessler Collection. Plant Riverside District allows the community and travelers to visit luxury hotels (JW Marriott, Bohemian Hotel), three rooftop bars (Electric Moon, Baobab Lounge, Myrtle & Rose) and countless dining options, retail shops, science exhibits and much more. The Plant Riverside District is genuinely changing the name of entertainment by exceeding expectations.
