Scudder's Row (possibly Scudders Row) is a historic row house in Savannah, Georgia, United States.[1] It comprises the five homes from 1 to 9 East Gordon Street, in the southeastern residential block of Monterey Square, and was completed in 1853. It is a contributing property of the Savannah Historic District, itself on the National Register of Historic Places.[2]

The properties were built between 1852 and 1853 by brothers John and Ephraim Scudder.[3] John Scudder also built several of the homes on Savannah's Jones Street, which has been described as one of the most charming streets in America.[4][5]

Other similar-style row houses exist in Savannah's Gordon Row, the Jones Street Quantock Row, the Chatham Square Quantock Row, William Remshart Row House, McDonough Row and Marshall Row.
