Signature Squares of Brunswick


Signature Squares of Brunswick, a non-profit preservation organization, was founded in 2005 to reclaim and beautify the original colonial parks and squares in the Old Town district of the city.


The Council of the Royal Colony of Georgia laid out the city of Brunswick in 1771. The concept for the city utilized the Oglethorpe Plan, named after the colony’s founder, General James Edward Oglethorpe. The design featured 14 large and small squares spaced evenly among residential and commercial land lots. 

These park-like areas were to be deeded to the people of the city in perpetuity, never to be sold or developed. Over the centuries, a number of the squares of Brunswick have been sold, encroached upon or developed for civic or private purposes.


Today, many of the squares are still in use as community gathering spots or parks. Still others are waiting for the day when their true potential can be realized. Please joinus, learn more about our city and make history with us!

The members of the Magnolia Garden Club have donated $5,500 to Signature Squares to assist with the research, design and installation of 8 new signs for the historic squares.  This photo was taken in Hillary Square, the first of the eight remaining squares waiting for interpretive signs.  The Magnolia Garden Club members have been faithful supporters and volunteers assisting with the mission and projects of Signature Squares over several years. They have completed many different beautification projects within Brunswick’s Historic District and the city. They coordinate the Brunswick Tour of Historic Homes the first Saturday of December as their primary fundraising event.
