welcome

Greetings from Mayor Roy D. Buol As Mayor, and on behalf of the 58,000 residents of Dubuque, I thank you for your interest in Iowa’s first city … our “Masterpiece on the Mississippi!” Dubuque is blessed with a hardworking, skilled and educated workforce, supported by numerous quality private and public institutions of higher learning. We promote citizen involvement and community engagement in developing our City’s vision and priorities which is why Dubuque has been recognized among the top cities in the Midwest to raise a family, have a meaningful career, start or grow a business, and enjoy life! Dubuque is considered the “birthplace of Iowa” and features a rich history, interesting architecture, and abundant natural beauty. In addition to excellent accommodations and conference settings, Dubuque features the Port of Dubuque’s breathtaking riverwalk along the Mississippi, award-winning restaurants, charming shops, art and river history museums, elegant turn-of-the-century homes, and many other attractions. Since 2006, Dubuque has become a leader in the practical application of sustainability principles represented in the citizen-developed, City Counciladopted, and community-supported initiative known as “Sustainable Dubuque.” This focus offers a balanced approach to life quality in the areas of economic prosperity, environmental integrity, and social/cultural vibrancy (see www.sustainabledubuque.org). “Smarter Sustainable Dubuque,” our collaboration with IBM Research to become IBM’s first “smart city” in North America, has allowed us to share our story around the nation and the world and, in 2010, Dubuque was selected as one of the Ten Smartest Cities on the Planet by Fast Company. Other important recognitions stemming from our public/private partnerships have resulted in the coveted Outstanding Tourism Community of the Year award from the State of Iowa and the 2013 All-America City designation by the National Civic League, the third time in six years! Our community was honored to be named one of the 2013 10 Great Places to Live by Kiplinger’s Personal Finance and one of the 100 Best Communities for Young People by the America’s Promise Alliance in five of the past six years. In 2010, Forbes recognized Dubuque as the Best Small City to Raise a Family, and in 2008 the U.S. Conference of Mayors selected Dubuque as the Most Livable Small City in the nation!

Get to know Dubuque, Iowa.

Located in Dubuque

Known as the “Key City” to Irish and German immigrants who saw it as a gateway to the west, Dubuque is Iowa’s oldest city. It rests upon scenic bluffs overlooking the Mississippi River with an abundance of natural resources. When its first permanent settler, Julien Dubuque, arrived in 1785 he established a close relationship with the Meskwaki Indian Tribe that lead to a growing trade market which attracted more settlers. After being chartered in 1837, industry in Dubuque grew rapidly. Initially known for fur trading and lead mining, settlers brought new business such as button making, boat construction, and mill working.

300 Main Street, Suite 100 | Dubuque, IA 800.798.8844 | www.traveldubuque.com Stop by the Iowa Welcome Center on Main Street and load up on maps, brochures and merchandise that will help you get to know and remember this modernized city. Informational kiosks located conveniently throughout the downtown area will also assist you in your explorations.

With a vision from area leaders, in the late 1990’s the America’s River Project was created. This project was developed with the goal of redeveloping Dubuque’s Riverfront. The project started out with a goal of raising $25 million. That $25 million grew into what today is a $400 million riverfront redevelopment that includes a state-of-theart convention center, upscale attractions, a riverfront that gleams and glistens with expanded businesses. This project encouraged other areas of the community to grow as well. From a bustling downtown district, the revitalization of the historic millwork district, to growth in new and existing businesses and retail outlets on the west end, the community continues to better itself with each year that passes.
