This controversy started with the proposal of development of a five-story condominium project on West Liberty Street by developer Julius Bennett which was approved by the city. The approval was decried by the preservationists; and triggered the Beehive Foundation, the Historic Savannah Foundation, and the Downtown Neighborhood Association to sue the city.
