First Avenue plan eyed to revitalize Cedar Rapids district

Cedar Rapids moves forward on a micro-area plan for 60 acres along First Avenue SE to address vacancies, traffic, and safety. City Council approved the initiative after studying failures of the Hy-Vee closure and gathering stakeholder feedback to link stronger businesses with a thriving neighborhood near Coe College, St Luke's, and Mount Mercy.
