Cedar Lake

A Unique Urban Lake

Overhead view of Cedar Lake.

ConnectCR helps the continuing evolution and revitalization of downtown Cedar Rapids by developing Cedar Lake.  This unique urban lake is viewed by more than 100,000 commuters on I-380 every day.  

An On-The-Lake Experience

The designed boardwalk that will extend out over the lake.

Our plans call for a boardwalk to extend out over the lake, offering visitors an opportunity to walk out over the lake and experience it beyond the water's edge.
