Center Street Project - How you can help!

The historic and beautiful North Cedar Neighborhood is as much a destination as it is a neighborhood. We live here, we work here, and we play here. With your help, we can make sure ALL Cedar Falls Citizens and visitors feel welcome.
​If you are looking for a new place to call your home, or to set up shop, look no further than North Cedar. Once you get a taste of what life in North Cedar is like, you will understand the passion for the community the neighborhood has.  
 
We want our neighborhood to continue to be an attractive, vibrant part of Cedar Falls.  We want to keep our neighborhood school thriving.  We want to make sure we stay on the map.
