Savannah, through the lens of her adoring visitors. The Deep Shade of Emmet ParkHere a centuries old oak reaches toward the Savannah River Bluff along Factor’s Walk. Bordering East Bay Street (former “The Bay”) is Emmet Park, the beautiful, tree-shaded park named for Irish patriot and orator Robert Emmet. Found here are Savannah’s Vietnam Veterans Memorial and historic Harbor Light (1858), a gas-powered light erected as a navigational aid to vessels in the Savannah River. The light stands 77 feet above the river and helped ships avoid the hulls of ships scuttled by British forces during the siege of 1779 in an effort to prevent French warships from using the harbor.
