THE DIGEST
Savannah Bananas Plan New Headquarters at Daffin Park

The Savannah Bananas are taking another big step forward, with plans to build a $4 million headquarters inside Daffin Park next to Grayson Stadium. Approved by City Council earlier this month, the 10,000-square-foot building will be funded and maintained by the team, though it will become city property if their lease ends.
