Clip: 5/5/2022 | 5m 21sVideo has Closed Captions
From historic preservation to adaptation, we have a live report from Old Town.
Located two miles north of downtown, and about a mile from the lake, it's a neighborhood that has undergone a lot of change in the past decade. Local residents have fought to preserve historic buildings in the area. We talk to a few staples in the community, and a youth-focused organization working on serving underserved youth.
