Progress Update on Council Bluffs Adventure Tower

The River’s Edge development continues to take steps toward the anticipated construction of the adventure tower and other amenities on the Council Bluff’s riverfront. Most recently, Southwest Iowa Nonprofit for Collective Impact and the City of Council Bluffs were awarded a $4.9 million Destination Iowa Grant for the project. Construction is on hold until issuance of a permit from the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers. The city anticipates issuance of the permit by early September with construction following soon thereafter. – Isaiah Ang
