Chinatown

Chinatown is a designated community area on the south side of Downtown Greenfield.

History

In the late 1800s the area now known as chinatown was a part of the peralta beach/south hill neighbourhoods. these were filled with industrial buildings and housed most of the former port of Greenfield. That was untill a fire started in 1901 in a small warehouse. This fire quickly spread onto neighbouring buildings and blazed through most of the district. The heavy winds and dry warm weather made the perfect brewing ground for a large fire to spread through the entire city. Fortunately the Greenfield fire department stopped most of it from spreading, unfortunately most of the peralta beach neighbourhood was now burned down and the city needed to rebuild.

Instead of rebuilding into industry, a lot of chinese immigrants moved into the neighbourhood due to the very cheap land aaaaaaaa
