General
- A part of Perplex City, the Old Town is the location of Perplex City Academy
- The Old Town is featured in the Tour Guide which came with the Parcels from Sente Kiteway
- Crime and rising real estate prices are becoming a serious issue.
- Many want to see the Old Town redeveloped; No-one wants to actually do it.
- Some suggest Developing other areas around the city, such as the Northside.
- The general sense is that the Old Town is somehow doomed or jinxed in a way noone can quite identify.
- Past revitalization efforts have all failed, and there is no reason future endeavours will do any better.
- 23-AUG-05 - Councilman Roy Yolen whimsically suggests tearing down all of Old Town.
- This poorly thought out statement raises quite a furor.
- Later apologized, saying it was "an ill-considered expression of frustration"
- 12-SEP-05 - Raoul Valentin of the Old Town Renewal Committee announces The Lighting of the Way Festival in old-town
- The festival, one of typical gift giving, and observed religiously by Cubists, is being chosen as the perfect time to begin a spirit of renewel in the usually drab Old Town area.
