Savannah's historic district has 24 squares. The squares vary in size and personality, from the formal fountain and
monuments of the largest, Johnson, to the playgrounds of the smallest,
Crawford. Elbert, Ellis, and Liberty Squares are classified as the
"lost squares," destroyed due to development in the 1950s. The Foley House Inn sits on quiet and peaceful Chippewa Square. Centrally located in the historic district, Chippewa Square is the home to the statue of James Oglethorpe, the founder of the state of Georgia and also where Tom Hanks ate his box of chocolates in "Forrest Gump".
