Roshek Building Redevelopment was the rehabilitation of a historic five-story commercial building in downtown Dubuque to providing space to a local community organization at discounted lease rates. IBM’s occupation of two of the five floors added 1,300 new jobs to Dubuque. The project proved to be a significant catalyst for increased retail and commercial activity in Dubuque’s downtown core.
