Cedar Rapids: The City of Five Seasons
Cedar Rapids straddles the Cedar River in eastern Iowa and has a population of about 130,400. The city calls itself the City of Five Seasons, with the fifth season being time to enjoy the other four. Quaker Oats has operated a cereal plant here since 1873, and the smell of processing grain is detectable throughout the city on many days.
The 2008 flood inundated much of downtown and surrounding neighborhoods when the Cedar River crested at over 31 feet, more than 11 feet above flood stage. Entire blocks were condemned. The city has since invested heavily in flood mitigation infrastructure, including removable flood barriers and levee improvements.
The National Czech and Slovak Museum and Library relocated to higher ground after the flood and now occupies a building on the west bank. The African American Museum of Iowa, also in Cedar Rapids, is one of the few such institutions in the Midwest. The NewBo City Market, a year-round public market, anchors the revitalized New Bohemia neighborhood.
