As I have stated in another post and after watching this vid confirmed it.

All of our cities were / are wiped out. It was an all out War. So like in real life when your city is wiped out you move and rebuild. But there are some things that can not be moved. So religious and permanent fixtures are left in place and citizens pick and move to a new place and rebuild. Thus the New and Old Grid. Think New and Old Jerusalem or if you been to Las Vegas, New Strip (New York New York) vs Old Strip (Lady Luck).
