The Where in the QC is this #4½ picture was taken in the alley between 4th and 5th street, between Pershing and Iowa, near Phase 2 of the lofts. Not too many people pass through there, so it was unfairly difficult. This week's is probably too easy.

Where in the QC is this? #5
Ok, here's one that people can probably actually guess.

Back of the Adler/Mississippi Hotel?
ReplyDeleteRe-titled: Where in my zip code is this? Let's see one block away from #4 1/2. Couple more like this and you will have a coffee table book, "Brick Walls and Boarded Windows".
ReplyDeleteIt's the FORREST-BLOCK building at the N/E corner of 4th and Brady. They are just starting to rehab the old blister. 100's of pigeons will be displaced.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous #3 gets it.
ReplyDeleteAs far as too many pictures of downtown Davenport, I agree. However, its where I spend most of my time, so it is somewhat bound to happen. I'm trying to find time to get more non-Davenport images.
I've asked this like 4 times, but does anyone know what they're renovating that building INTO? Apartments? More antique stores?
ReplyDeleteCondos.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I am wrong, but I believe the owners have limited experience in development.
ReplyDeleteHere's one for you QCI, what was the attraction of that location 30 years ago? Hint: got your overcoat.
It does seem to be progressing at a snail's pace.
ReplyDelete30+ years ago there was a XXX theater on the ground floor of the Forrest Building.
ReplyDeleteBellomy owns the next door bldg. He has for years. He is different.
ReplyDeletePlan is condos and 3 retail on first floor. Snail's pace, eh? Apparently haven't done development before, especially of a historic building. Lots of red tape. Getting team assembled and contractors to actually get bids in takes time.
ReplyDeleteLooks like renovation has begun inside.
