Keokuk

The new park next to the library will feature a story walk.

Main Street Keokuk Inc. will redevelop about a dozen empty buildings in the 1100 block of Main Street.

Mayor Kathie Mahoney said the hospital's new owner plans to establish an emergency room whenever the facility is reopened.

The street takes visitors to Keokuk National Cemetery, which is the only national cemetery in Iowa and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

The property will be divided into six sections for redevelopment.

The photos will be displayed publicly at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 21 at the Miller House Museum in Keokuk.

The new owners want to resume 24-hour urgent care.

The free “Imagine the Possibilities Tour” will highlight Keokuk's downtown commercial properties that are available to buy or lease.

The Lee County Iowa Historical Society wants to place signs throughout Oakland Cemetery to tell the stories of noteworthy people who were born or lived in Lee County and are buried in the Keokuk graveyard.

Properties where household incomes are below 80% of the area median income are eligible for the grant.
