Kingston Village rises from flood ruins in Cedar Rapids quest
Cedar Rapids businessman Steve Gray seeks a casino site at First Street and First Avenue SW to anchor Kingston Village. The project preserves century old storefronts and the Sullivan bank, with KHB Redevelopment leading renovations and plans for a six story river view building. Community leaders push to honor Kingston history while pursuing flood recovery and new commerce.
