“I’m not aware of that at all. We have two offices in Old Town right now and are very pleased with the properties.”
– Airbus spokeswoman Mary Anne Greczyn’s e-mailed response about whether the company is moving into the space Imaging Office Systems is vacating (sources say plans are in the works)
WICHITA — Imaging Office Systems is leaving Old Town, but it’s not leaving Wichita.
“We love the community,” says Bob Barkley, vice president at the Indiana-based company. “It’s a good place.”
The company has been in 6,000 square feet at 201 N. Mead in Old Town, which is next to Airbus, for a decade. Barkley says the space isn’t laid out the way the company it needs to be, and it’s about double the size of what the company now requires.
“We’re more efficient,” he says. “We do more stuff with computers than people.”
The company provides document imaging services and sells software for people to solve storage issues. It also provides some document storage.
Barkley says the company is working on a new 3,000-square-foot office, which he says should be ready in April, in west Wichita.
“This is only just a space correction,” Barkley says. “It’s really just that simple.”

WICHITA — Old Town is obviously one of Wichita’s most historic areas. Now, some of that history is readily available for people to learn as they visit the area.
Developer Dave Burk this month placed 54 plaques on buildings throughout Old Town. He finished a couple of days ago and has already seen visitors stopping to look.
“This was research that we put together when we compiled all the information to get this into a National Historic District,” Burk says.
That was back in 1990.
“I’ve been thinking about it for a long time,” Burk says.
