Welcome!

This is THE time of year for downtown Iowa City. Teaming with events, cloaked in the loveliness of a Midwestern spring, and full of life as families and students emerge from winter hibernation, it can be hard to keep up with all the stimulation. Perfect time to start a blog and spread the word.

Look for informational updates on events. Learn the life stories of our  multi-generational independent businesses or those that have just begun. Read about the quirky history of downtown Iowa City. Check out a walking tour.

Several people will be contributing to this blog. Let us know if you have an interesting story idea or photos to share. We look forward to seeing you again!
