We are open and located next door to the Witwer Center in the 600 Block of 2Nd Avenue East in Cedar Rapids

It's nice to see the winds settle down and the snow head to the East Coast, after the past two days of a Major Winter Storm in Cedar Rapids and much of the Midwest. Schools in much of Eastern Iowa are still closed for the third straight day, as the temperatures plunge.

Tommy Tucker Realty Co. is celebrating its 40Th anniversary at our current location in the 600 Block of 2Nd Avenue SE in Downtown Cedar Rapids this year. We opened in 1958 in Real Estate, but located to our current location at 613 2Nd Avenue SE in 1969. We have seen changes in our neighborhood throughout the past 40 years. This year, we welcomed a new neighbor.

Spotlight on a Community Organization, which also happens to be a neighbor to Tommy Tucker Realty Co.

In February of this year, the Witwer Center reopened next door at 605 2Nd Avenue SE to serve the seniors in our community. There previous location in the Central District of Downtown Cedar Rapids was flooded in the Flood of 2008. They have senior adult programming, a noon meal for seniors, as well as the Witwer home delivered meals program operated out of the 605 2Nd Avenue SE location.

We took a little time to visit and welcomed our new neighbors to our neighborhood. We had the pleasure of visiting with Myrt Bowers, President, and others on her staff with the Witwer Center. They shared a little about their operations. Witwer provides senior adult services and meals to a variety of senior residents throughout Linn County.

At the same location, the Green Square Meals program operates in the evenings to help those in need in our community. The Green Square Meals program is a separate organization that serves the Cedar Rapids Community. Green Square Meals also had to be relocated, after the Flood of 2008.
