dc.descriptionWarehouse with the Savannah River to the right; The stone and brick commercial buildings of Factors’ Row, including the Queen Anne Revival Savannah Cotton Exchange (1886-1887) by the Boston architect William Gibbons Preston, were built over a series of free-standing arched warehouses along the riverside, inventively negotiating the change of level from the river to the city, to which they are connected by cast-iron bridges. [The "factors" were cotton brokers. This area has been restored and developed. Located on a bluff just above River Street, Factors Walk is a unique collection of restored cotton warehouses and merchant offices. The Bay Street buildings have been renovated into antique shops, historic inns, and offices. The old warehouses on River Street have been converted into pubs, restaurants and specialty shops.] Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordartonline.com/ (accessed 5/1/2011)en_US
