What a beautiful and photogenic afternoon for the Canadian Pacific Final Spike steam train to visit Downtown Davenport, Iowa. We need something like this at least once a year. Maybe in collaboration with the new train restoration facility in Silvis. People love trains!

Good thing the Davenport School District tore down the beautiful and historic Washington School to replace it with... *checks notes* a field.

I've got a lot of thoughts about the Junior Theater/Annie Wittenmyer proposal, but here's a 12-minute back and forth with the Parks Advisory Board and Chad Dyson, Davenport Parks and Rec Director, about the potential redevelopment. Between this and all the information that Kyle Gripp Alderman At-Large recently posted, I'm trying to figure out if this could be a win/win/win for Davenport, or just another example of small thinking from City Administration. To be clear, I love the idea of Annie Wittenmyer becoming a thriving mixed-use property that maintains its historic character, but just worry about Junior Theater's future if it leaves its long-time home.
