'We can't walk down the streets': Old Town residents fear for their safety as city gives update on

90-day reset plan

A 90-day effort to rebuild and reopen Old Town came to an end this week.

Protected by the gates of the Lan Su Chinese Garden, city officials along with the Old Town Community Association gave an update on where the neighborhood now stands.

About two dozen people attended the press conference Monday morning, including several long-time Old Town residents concerned about neighborhood safety.

“We have made some critical decisions to get us started and now we must stay the course improving the process and work,” said Jessie Burke, chair of the Old Town Community Association and co-owner of the Society Hotel.
