With the creation of the curb less festival streets on Davis and Flanders, and the new excitement in the neighborhood spurred by the redevelopment in the Ankeny Burnside Area, as well as other plans for redevelopment and the recent increase of new businesses, a dedicated group of people operating businesses and organizations have recreated the Old Town Chinatown Business Association.
