Coralville Enables River Landing Growth Through Arena Project

The Marriott opened in 2006 followed by Von Maur in 2013, spurring regional visitor spending and business growth. The arena project has been in development for years, signaling ongoing investment in the district.

Cedar Rapids SAVE plan looms as funding hinges on extension
Iowa districts debate tax延extension to 2050 and a $224.2 million Cedar Rapids facilities plan. The plan would demolish ten elementary schools and replace or renovate others, with Coolidge and Jackson opening in 2021 and 2022 respectively. Without SAVE extension, a bond referendum may be needed.
