Modern Iowa?

Davenport, Iowa...a hotbed for modern lifestyle?

...not really. But making strides! With the new Figge Art Museum designed by David Chipperfield, this once sleepy town now has a brilliant architectural gem.

David Chipperfield Architects have done projects like the Bryant Park Hotel in NY and Dolce & Gabbana retail stores. They are very talented and this waterfront museum is one of many civic projects. They have offices in Shanhai, Berlin and London.
