And from the DSM Register:

Dubuque casino plans $50 million complex
The Diamond Jo Casino in Dubuque said today it plans to build a new $50 million casino complex in the city's Ice Harbor along the Mississippi river.

The new casino is part of a larger project with the Dubuque Historical Society that will include retail, educational and entertainment components, local officials said.
Interesting how the two papers choose to focus on differing parts of the riverfront development!
