The town that was burned was called Lake-town, but is also referred to by Tolkien as "Esgaroth" and "Esgaroth on the Long Lake".It is likely that Esgaroth existed alongside the town of Dale, which laid at the foot of the Lonely Mountain. Dale would have been the primary settlement, when Esgaroth acting more like a trade center between Dale, Greenwood, Erebor, the Iron Hills and the human settlements to the East along the River Running. It is mentioned in The Hobbit that at low tide, more pilings from a "greater town" could be seen, indicating that a larger settlement once existed on the same site.After the destruction of Lake-town, the humans built a greater city father down the lake and called it Esgaroth.
The Master of Esgaroth, an elected official of the city, flees with the gold that is meant to be used to rebuild the dragon-devastated town. He dies alone somewhere in the wilderness.

They were both much larger in size than the common kind, lived for well over 100 years, and could speak the language of Westros, communicating with the men of the region. They served as messengers and scouts for the people living there.
The Old Thrush, one of the species of Great Thrush that lived in the Esgaroth region, told Bard that Smaug had a hole in his armored chest right over his heart.
