The Signs are Everywhere.

The Signs are Everywhere. From blocks of housing rebuilt painstakingly by volunteers and residents, to the new U.S. Courthouse flanking the river, to a state of the art convention center and new hotel, bookending our vibrant downtown with the New Bohemia Main Street District - this is a time of hope and optimism for our community. With more than 3/4 of a billion dollars invested in our community, the Signs of Progress are all around us.

At the five year mark, this is the time to look forward. This is not only a time to see how much is yet to be done - but also to pursue that vision of a vibrant and urban hometown. One we’re all proud to call home.

Cedar Valley Habitat for Humanity (CVHFH) Downtown Area Reinvestment


Community Investment: $3 million         Status: Completion in 2013

350 6th Avenue SE (Offices/ReStore) / 1125 4th St NW (Construction)

Cedar Valley Habitat moved its ReStore, construction facility and offices into downtown-area, flood-impacted buildings. Over the next three years, the organization will focus its efforts on new, single family infill construction, rehabilitation of flooded homes and exterior painting/repair projects on owner-occupied homes—all in core neighborhoods.
