Green-Meldrim House, Gothic Revival mansion in Madison Square, Savannah, United States
The Green-Meldrim House features ornate plaster work, black walnut details, a curved staircase topped with a skylight, and marble mantles throughout its interior spaces.
During the Civil War in 1864, General William T. Sherman established his headquarters at this residence after accepting cotton merchant Charles Green's strategic invitation.
The house regularly hosts educational programs, including lectures by the Victorian Society and musical performances from the Savannah VOICE Festival throughout the year.

The residence was built in 1850 for $90,000 as part of a marriage contract between Charles Green and his wife Lucy, marking an exceptional personal investment.
