Statesboro Mall in Statesboro, GA grew around Belk, raised its ceilings, and lost JCPenney. What's left now?

Belk moves to U.S. 80, and one bank blocks another. Belk had run its Statesboro store downtown since 1950. In 1970 the department store moved out to Northside Drive East, the local stretch of U.S. 80, on a site reached from Brannen Street and Lovett Road, and it was open there before the rest of the project was finished.

Did you know Savannah has the oldest bar in Georgia? Check it out

The oldest bar in Georgia is a Savannah hotspot . Not only is it connected to the state's founder, it's also tied to a world-renowned novel. What is Georgia's first bar? In its list of the oldest bars in every state, VinePair identified The Pirates' House as Georgia's first. It's housed in an old inn and tavern founded in 1753 as the state became more established, welcoming in more visitors. The inn and tavern grew out from what was the Herb House, built in 1734 as a home to the gardener of what was the first public agricultural experimental garden in America, which was established by Georgia's founder James Oglethorpe in 1733. How did the Pirates House get its name? As Savannah became a thriving seaport, the inn/tavern was a popular destination for sailors.

The season’s sweetest traditions arrived at PJ’s Coffee on November 4, where two new creations — a sugar cookie-inspired latte and a sparkling pomegranate energy drink — meet the returning fan-favorite Peppermint Bark beverages for a limited time.
