The vision for Old Town is to become a small town within the heart of a growing City. The Old Town area covers approximately a mile and a half in every direction from the center of downtown and includes neighborhoods, former mill complexes and corridors which lead to the center of the City.
In 2001 the City of Rock Hill in conjunction with six other partners came together to begin the creation of the Old Town Renaissance Master Plan. Winthrop University, York Technical College, Rock Hill School District, York County, York County Regional Chamber of Commerce, and the Rock Hill Economic Development Corporation began planning what the future of our urban core would become. This planning process, led by the International Economic Development Council, developed six strategies to guide the future of Old Town. The six strategies include: Downtown, College Town, Hometown (neighborhoods), Trolley Town (transportation), Textile Town (former textile mills), and Technology Town.
