Today, December 1st, 2021, Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (IA-02) spoke on the floorof the House of Representatives to recognize Iowa City’s Marc Moen.
Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize a man from my district for his commitment to keeping Iowa beautiful and preserving some of our most treasured historical sites.
Marc Moen, a developer in Iowa City, was recently presented with the Iowa Architectural Foundation’s 2021 Community Enhancement Through Architecture and Design Award.
The awards program recognizes individuals, organizations, agencies, or communities outside the architectural profession who have demonstrated consistent and effective leadership, vision, and support for architecture, or have continually championed the cause of architecture in ways that have contributed to the betterment of Iowa communities.
Marc began his architectural work in 1985 when he advocated to save the “first brick house in Iowa City” from being razed and began restoring the building instead.
Since then, Marc has worked to help make Iowa City the beautiful community it is today.
Thank you, Marc, for your dedication to our community and our state.
