by Camren Skelton May 10, 2018

SAVANNAH, GA. — A joint venture between ELV Associates, Mariner Group and Regent Partners has unveiled the development plans for a $600 million mixed-use project in Savannah. The joint venture originally acquired the site — formerly known as Savannah River Landing — in September 2017. The project will be renamed Eastern Wharf, a nod to the site’s history. The Savannah Eastern Wharves date back to the early 1800s, when Savannah was on the rise as one of the major ports on the East Coast. “It was important to our team that we were respectful of Savannah’s history,” says Trent Germano, a principal with Mariner Group. “When we started to learn about the site and the significant role it played in the early commerce of Savannah, we knew what direction we wanted to go.” The 57-acre site is located adjacent to downtown Savannah’s Landmark Historic District. The development plan outlines approximately seven acres of public open space including squares and a park along the Savannah River. The group plans to break ground on the first phase of Eastern Wharf this summer. Representing a $225 million investment, the first phase will include more than 300 apartment units; a 1,100-space parking garage; 40,000 square feet …
