Old Town (North)

Map 45

It was only a matter of time before the North began to catch up with the South—in an ironic twist of history. This area is a mix of old and new, with charming streets where residents have worked hard to update their historic townhomes with a modern edge, and modern townhomes are built with historic facades.
