The Central Avenue Corridor between 14th and 22nd Streets has one of the most intact collections of historic commercial buildings in Dubuque. For the workers at the Pack and millwork factories this neighborhood was a “city within a city” with stores, churches, taverns, businesses, schools, and everything they needed within an easy walk. Now the neighborhood is attracting new attention for revitalization, including some vibrant murals by Voices Productions. We’ll peel back the layers of reuse and renovation and see remnants of this district’s colorful past, including hidden architectural details and (of course) some pubs and taverns that have long been fixtures in this neighborhood.
