West Side Rising memorial aims to revitalize Cedar Rapids west side
A $250000 26 foot tall memorial sculpture planned northwest of Sixth Street NW and O Avenue NW seeks to symbolize renewal for Cedar Rapids west side neighborhoods hit hard by the 2008 flood. Local leaders say the project reflects ongoing plans to rebuild and restore identity as homes and storefronts remain scarce.
