Walcott plans revival after Hawkeye fire
Walcott rallies to restore downtown and rebuild growth after Hawkeye Building Distributors burned in July 1996. The fire destroyed the business and a floral shop, caused about 3 million dollars in damage, and led Hawkeye to relocate to Rock Island. The revived Walcott Economic Development Committee will study and pursue state and federal help to attract industry and residents.
