Spring is Here

We have escaped winter conditions and have welcomed sunshine, warmer temperatures, and even some rain. The grass is greener, the birds are singing, and being outside sounds a lot better. With the arrival of Spring, our properties are beginning to blossom once again. Some familiar apartments for rent have exclusive vacancies, as well as some brand new, shiny, and squeaky-clean rentals hitting the market. We could focus primarily on our apartments for rent in Cedar Rapids, but today we would like to look at our community.

Looking across Cedar Rapids, many areas have opened and re-opened bars & restaurants, community centers, and much more. Many of our cedar rapids apartments for rent are near these popular venues, making destinations easily accessible. Let us start with the Newbo District of Cedar Rapids.

Recently The Bohemian has opened just across the street from Raygun and the Newbo City Market. This new bar and restaurant is very unique, showcasing a creative and even vintage layout throughout. With crafty food, drinks, and music, residents of our Cedar Rapids apartments for rent will want to check this out. Staying in the Newbo District, Brewhemia has done an excellent job throughout the pandemic, providing spacious options for guests to enjoy their fresh coffee and food. On the top level of the historic building Brewhemia is in, sits the Olympic Theatre. Guests who stop in can head up there and enjoy their visit in an elegant setting. Did you know Brewhemia is known to have one of the best breakfast burritos around? Our team is getting hungry as we write about this!

Hop on over to the Westdale area where you can find our Parkway West apartments for rent and you will find a tasty new barbecue option in Sugarfire Smoke House. With endless sandwich and side options, their food is finger-lickin’ good. Sugarfire Smoke House filled a former bank space with another creative layout. The drive-thru is typically filled with excited customers.

When shifting to the NE side of Cedar Rapids, there has been a lot of significant updates near our Buffalo Ridge townhomes for rent. In the last year, this side of Cedar Rapids has welcomed Fleet Farm – a great destination for just about anything you need. Looking for a bite to eat? The growing Jersey Mike’s sub sandwich chain just opened off Edgewood road and is doing extremely well. After enjoying some lunch, visit Farrell’s Extreme Bodyshaping for a premiere workout. As you head home, fuel up your vehicle at the popular Kwik Star just off Blairs Ferry road. All these businesses are new additions to the NE side of Cedar Rapids and have filled the area nicely.

Local businesses in Cedar Rapids have done an exceptional job operating while adapting to the Covid-19 environment. As conditions improve, we hope all our renters and local residents are able to enjoy a drink in the sun at a perfect patio like Parlor City, Lion Bridge Brewing, and so many more! Stay tuned for further property-related updates in the future as Q4 Real Estate broadens the scope of apartments for rent.
