Notes
  • Significance: The history of river improvements in general, and the Ice Harbor specifically, represents the most ambitious public works effort ever undertaken by the City of Dubuque. The Ice Harbor and the preceding efforts to improve the city's river facilities were the first such projects on the upper Mississippi financed by Congress. Also, the area surrounding the Ice Harbor from the earliest days of Dubuque's existence been the focus of the city's inter-city transportation facilities. Furthermore, Second Street, which connects the Ice Harbor with St. Raphael's Cathedral has for many years been recognized as a dominant axis in the city's design scheme. Today plans are underway to renovate and improve the Second Street area, as well as the north side of the Ice Harbor, as a recreation and tourist area.
