Cedar Rapids Feasibility, Funding Delays Mark 1960s Revitalization
The Cedar Rapids area faces delays in funding for a $66 million federal courthouse seen as key to downtown revitalization. A separate plan for a $280 million Cedar Rapids Iowa City corridor project was proposed, with local governments asked to contribute about $75 million. The Gazette also notes sharp local memory of past selling points and a Feb. 7 memorial for Felix Adler, the Ringling Brothers clown. The era includes Feb. 10 receivership of American Federal and a Feb. 7 slogan contest by the Cedar Rapids Chamber of Commerce.
