The former Argus Building, located at 1724 5th Avenue in Rock Island, Illinois, is a historic property that once housed the offices of the Rock Island Argus newspaper. This building is a notable example of early 20th-century commercial architecture, reflecting the city's rich journalistic heritage.? Situated in downtown Rock Island, the property offers potential for redevelopment or adaptive reuse, subject to local zoning regulations. Its proximity to other historic landmarks and the Mississippi Riverfront enhances its appeal for various commercial or cultural purposes. There is a new federal courthouse next door and would be a good location for a restaurant, daycare, or attorney firm which would benefit from close proximity. Prospective buyers or developers should consult with the Rock Island Planning & Redevelopment Division to understand zoning requirements, historic preservation guidelines, and potential incentives for rehabilitation.?
