NTTW: How it Started vs. How it's Going

To celebrate National Travel & Tourism Week, we take a trip down memory lane to explore how things started and how they're going now. This is a fun opportunity to see how Council Bluffs has grown and developed over the years!  

Thank you to Richard Warner with the Historical Society of Pottawattamie County for providing the historical photos included in this blog! Check out their website for stories about CB's past. Make sure you check out their podcast "Accidentally Historic."
