One Park Place high rise eyed for Cedar Rapids development
Cedar Rapids moves forward with the One Park Place project after an NDC review deems it financially viable but shows a $20.5 million funding gap. The $103 million, 28 story project on a city lot near the Paramount Theatre would include a hotel, grocery, rooftop restaurant, apartments, condos and a parking ramp. City staff recommend $5 million upfront upon completion in 2020 and $15.5 million in tax reimbursements over 16 to 18 years, with council to authorize negotiations at the December 6 meeting.
