Dubuque Casket Company
The reuse of the historic Dubuque Casket Company building reactivated 65,000 square feet of abandoned space. The building includes affordable local housing through the Washington Court Apartments, and the main level is dedicated to community service organizations.
Historic Upper Main
The 1000 Block
Dubuque’s Historic Upper Main Street Revitalization project involved the complete rehabilitation of six blighted buildings – restoring fourteen historic storefronts and creating 30 quality affordable housing units.
​
This $7 million initiative catalyzed an economic revitalization of the entire area. The 1000 Block is now home to a mix of office, eateries, retail, and residential. It is a safe and walkable neighborhood with access to services and transportation.
Interstate Building
In 2007, the Interstate Building received a full rehabilitation. Originally built in 1956, it had only 3 stories – the fourth floor was added in 1962. This is a prime example of a mix of both the Modern Movement (steel, glass, and reinforced concrete) and International Style (low profile and horizontal window bands).
Schmid Innovation Center
The inaugural project in the Historic Millwork District was CARADCO, now known as the Schmid Innovation Center and CARADCO Lofts. The Carr, Adams, & Collier Company (CARADCO) Main Plant Building is a former millworking factory in what was once the nation’s largest window and door manufacturing company. CARADCO occupies an entire city block and is adjacent to Dubuque’s downtown, walkable, working class neighborhoods.
CARADCO’s revitalization in a pedestrian-friendly, urban-cultural atmosphere supports sustainable design principles including buildings and infrastructure reuse, energy-efficient features, complete streets, and connectivity to jobs and services.
