Vinetown is a suburb of Malton, located in the southeast of the city.

One of Malton’s lower-middle, working-class neighborhoods, Vinetown had fallen on hard times in the mid-1980s, when layoffs and shutdowns at local factories pushed it into an era of extreme poverty; with crime, joblessness and poverty hitting all-time highs. A slow turnaround had begun by the early ‘90s and, prior to the outbreak, Vinetown was undergoing a massive period of urban renewal.

Vinetown was named for a small but highly-regarded winemaking operation that flourished in the region in the early 20th Century, established under the auspices of a group called the Priory of St. Armand – based at St. John's Cathedral. Colwill Grove Select was prized by wine experts and a solid money-maker for the church’s charitable efforts before production was abandoned during World War II. St. John’s was one of two buildings that dominated the landscape of Vinetown in the days before the outbreak.

To the south, Mitchem Mall, built in the late ‘70s, adapted quickly to the region’s economic downturn – filling its vacated storefronts with space for local vendors. Catering to local artisans (alongside cheap rents) helped create a thriving arts and music community despite the area’s impoverished status. (It’s rumored that singer-songwriter Tom Waits wrote much of the material for his 1980 album “Heart Attack and Vine” while staying at the The Pilyer Hotel, located on Malton’s Vine Street, during a run of shows at Club Izzard and Club Quarman – which then catered to live music audiences.)

St. John's north corner is overrun. Looked to be fifteen or so left. A couple of us are hiding out at the entry points, the ones who can't get in. I imagine we'll be first. --SaneMadMan 04:03, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

25.96 MHz: "... can see maybe seventy on the streets of Vinetown ... a horde of a couple of dozen outside Mitchem Mall ... lights are on across the suburb ... some minor structural damage though ... Mitchem Mall has power ..." --Ryan Rocksmith 16:32, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

January 7th

Zombies have once again reclaimed the Mitchem Mall after days of suffering headshots after the occasional breakin. They now shuffle slowly towards the checkouts with carts filled with discounted holiday gifts. What's next? A visit to St. John's? A quick rave at one of the local clubs? Only time will tell. --Funkster 18:58, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
