City Will Have Fine Laundry Building at Commerce Park West and Jefferson
Henry O. Bernbrock of Waterloo Steam Laundry will erect what may be the finest midwest laundry building on his corner lot at Hark avenue west and Jefferson street. The eight story brick and stone structure, about 85 by 100 feet, will cost roughly 85000 dollars and be fireproof inside. The first two floors will house laundry operations while the upper six floors will be apartments. Construction timing is undecided but a year to occupancy is hoped. The project aims to meet rising demand from the planned Russell Lamson hotel and Waterloo’s growing business.

Black Hawk land tax plan aims to tax lands at full value
Attorney General Cosson and the state council push to equalize county assessments by comparing deeds of transfer with Rolls. The auditor will adjust valuations to reflect selling prices, raising many land assessments toward full value. Under the rule, farm land in Mack Hawk county would see base assessments jump substantially, affecting personal and city property too.
