The fence went up about 35-40 years ago. The restaurants remained out side the fence.

I don't know about the gangs, but I recall hearing at that time that the fence went up to keep the "hippies" from hanging out in the park.

"Ghost Town" was created by the Knotts to provide something from the restaurant patrons to do while waiting from their seating time.
