Our Story

Rooted in Cedar Rapids since 1960

Armstrong Development Company was founded in Cedar Rapids in 1960, originally as Armstrong-Race Realty Company. The name changed in 2000. The approach did not: build solid space, treat people fairly, and stay in the same region long enough to understand it.

Today the company is still locally owned and family run, managing over 500,000 square feet of commercial real estate across downtown Cedar Rapids, Hiawatha, and Marion. When the 2008 flood hit downtown, we put our resources back into the district even though our own buildings were among the hardest hit, and we have worked through every economic shift since.

Because we own what we manage, our interests line up with our tenants’: spaces that work, tenants who stay, and buildings that hold up.

Common Questions

Things tenants ask before they tour

These are the questions we hear most often from businesses looking at office space in Cedar Rapids. If yours isn’t here, we are a phone call away at 319-364-6533.

Ask Us A Question

Rent depends on the building, the square footage, and the length of the lease, so we quote every space individually rather than publishing a single rate. Tell us roughly how much room you need and how long you want the term, and we will send current numbers for the suites that fit. The quote spells out what is in the rent and what is not, so nothing shows up later that you were not told about.

Three steps. First, get in touch by phone or through the contact form and tell us what you need. Second, we walk you through the suites that match and answer questions about the lease while you are standing in the space. Third, once you pick a suite we prepare the paperwork and set a move in date. You are talking to the company that owns the building the entire time.

Furnished offices at the Armstrong Hub and the Armar Hub are set up and connected, so tenants can often move in the same day the lease is signed. Larger multi-suite space and whole buildings depend on what needs to change before you take occupancy. If a build-out is involved, we give you a realistic schedule up front rather than an optimistic one.

It depends on the lease structure, and we tell you which one applies before you sign. Offices at our two hubs are full service, so utilities, internet, parking, and shared conference rooms are covered by the rent. Larger space is typically gross or traditional triple net, where some operating costs are billed separately. Either way you get the breakdown in writing.

Our portfolio sits in three communities: downtown Cedar Rapids, Hiawatha, and Marion. Downtown holds most of the office and retail space, including the Armstrong Centre, the Granby Building, the Kubias Building, and the Armstrong Hub. Marion is home to the Armar Hub at 3281 Armar Drive. See the full list on our properties page.

Either works. We own and manage our buildings, so you can call us directly and deal with the owner from the first tour through move in. We also work with brokers and agents regularly and are glad to cooperate if you already have representation.
