Iowa City blocks blocked from Downtown Plan expansion
The Iowa City Council 5-2 vote blocked adding three Gilbert Street blocks to the Downtown and Riverfront districts. City ownership, 15 story height plans, and potential tax increment financing drew debate as commissioners had denied the resolution 5-1. The move now shifts future development to project by project review.
