Davenport Rock Island Moline, IA, November 11, 2026 — A prominent former commercial building in Moline, Illinois, is slated for a significant transformation into residential and dining spaces. The former Spiegel building, situated near the I-74 bridge, has been sold by the city to a local developer for redevelopment.
The redevelopment project plans to convert the long-vacant structure into 27 market-rate apartment units. Additionally, a restaurant is planned for the ground level of the building.
The city of Moline sold the property to the developer, expressing optimism about the project’s potential to revitalize the area. Hopes are for construction activities to commence as early as next spring. Specific details regarding the developer’s name, the timeline for construction beyond the anticipated spring start, or the projected completion date were not immediately available.
