Savannah News: 1) The big news these past months has been Robert Redford filming ‘The Conspirator.’ Filming ended mid month & downtown will return to normal. 2) The Jasper Port continues to fall behind schedule even though SC paid for a study that the US Army Core of Engineers hasn’t got the time or money to review. 3) Jekyll Island-although considerably south of Savannah, is getting an overhaul. It’ll be a facelift designed to attract tourists & convention groups back to the state-owned island. Tourism there has fallen from peak of 2.1Mil visitors down to 1.49 Mil in ’08. the Great Dunes Park revitalization will replace the cracked concrete boardwalk with a new 10’ wide tabby-style one that curves around dunes & connects to the rest of Jekyll’s trail system. (as a rental homeowner I’ve already lost potential rents to that area even before this renovation!)
