4.9/5 (12447 ratings)

Description:Most of the businessmen at that time tended to view the restoration of old buildings as aesthete, certainly not practical – an expensive hobby. No one at that time, not even the seven women of the Historic Savannah Foundation, saw the huge potential that tourism could provide. In fact when the seven ladies prepared a list of the six goals they hoped to attain, the very last one was “tourism” – almost placed within their list of goals as a hopeful sigh. The five goals placed before tourism seemed somehow more important. They 1. Formulation of a long range program of preservation and restoration with emphasis on the original city plan 2. Professional advice 3. Survey of downtown Savannah 4. Practical use of buildings saved 5. Zoning measures Then came number 6, the shortest of all, and the last goal – just one word. 6. Tourism. Who would have ever guessed that tourism would soon become the second largest industry in Savannah, second only to the Savannah seaport? Within a relatively short period of time Savannah tourism turned from a less than $100,000 a year business to more than a billion dollar industry with millions of tourists each year. In 2016, for example, there were 13.9 million total visitors to Savannah. 7.9 million visitors stayed overnight. The total expenditure of those overnight tourists was $2.23 billion, a figure that was unimaginable in the 1950s.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
