You're thinking of Capone's. That was built in an old bank over by Chrome Horse. The Vault is where the Piano Lounge used to be.
They have a great VA there which is developing a veterans museum. Their building (on the island) will eventually be holding fights and that type of entertainment so make sure you swing by as they tend not to publicize their events a lot. As another poster put... avoid just SE of down town (obvious when you see it) The area up near the North End HyVee was a great place to live. I've moved up to Waterloo and would much rather be in CR.
As a "Welcome to Iowa' thing I want to warn you to NOT get Mediacom for anything (they will likely be the first company to contact you for phone internet and cable. There are better options... (Standard advice for all new Iowans)

They have really great insurance conventions. And a toilet brush for a downtown monument.
Actually, I've had a lot of friends at ISU that were from Cedar Rapids and they all loved living in Cedar Rapids - assuming you can get over the smell and can tolerate the mass quantity of doosher Iowa fans...

I ended up on here during the basketball game last night, and although I forgot my password, I wanted to get back on here and thank everyone for the help. I took the job at DAEC and I'm currently renting a house in Marion. It's been cold, but nice with one exception...
If any of y'all stole the mail out of my mailbox, I hope someone punches you in the face.

Welcome to Iowa, congrats on your new gig!
For those of you in CR ... when I was growing up there, we used to go ice skating at Noelridge and I seem to remember Ellis Park had a place. Are those still around? Or is there some sort of indoor ice arena there now? Kind of lost touch with CR after graduation.

You've obviously never been there on Crunch Berries day. It's pretty delightful.
There's an indoor rink that the Roughriders play at, and it has one that is open to the public as well for free skate. There's also small outdoor ones at some schools, Arthur comes to mind, but those are at the mercy of weather to maintain a freeze.
still smells like **** from all the other ****** smelling factories there like adm
I don't even notice the smell anymore. Been living in Cedar Rapids (Marion now) full time for 3 years.
