Construction On Gated Community Has Begun

Construction is underway on Dubuque’s first gated community. Building permits for the first six homes in Estates of Dubuque, a home cooperative for older residents, were issued by the City of Dubuque last month, and work is underway at the site. Estates of Dubuque is located near the intersection of Derby Grange and John F. Kennedy roads and will include three private streets on 13 acres near the Rustic Point Estates subdivision. The community will be limited to those who are at least 55 years old. Officials aim to have every home in the community built by the fall of 2023.
