Florence waved so no ship would pass unnoticed.
We raise a glass so no moment does.
High above the Savannah River, Waving Girl carries forward a spirit this city has always known well — a spirit of welcome, of warmth, of come in, stay a while. Our name pays homage to Florence Martus, the girl who greeted every passing ship along Savannah’s shoreline for more than 40 years. Lantern by night, handkerchief by day, her wave became a quiet promise:
Whoever you are, wherever you’re going, you are seen. You are welcome.
That same spirit lives here. Not as a history lesson. But as a feeling passed from the hostess to the bartender, from the kitchen to the table, from one friend to another.
Welcome to Waving Girl, Savannah’s rooftop for savoring the moment, whether that’s a lingering date night, celebratory dinner, or a round of cocktails with friends. With unmatched skyline and riverfront views, we offer an elevated escape in the heart of the Historic District.
