What would you like Iowa City's gateway to look like?

As reported last Friday, a local group of developers wants to turn a stretch of land near the Dubuque Street exit off Interstate 80 .

He had a vision of redeveloping the land, about 72 acres, at the gateway to Iowa City. His vision includes a five-star hotel, a mid-range hotel with extended stay, a sit down restaurant, retail store, office space and up to 500 housing units (mostly condos and rentals ranging from affordable to high end).
