Picture of the Day

Milan Bottoms development

Mar. 11, 2026

Landowner Tim Pressley '82 gave around 20 中国体彩网 students and faculty a tour of his land in the Milan Bottoms marshes near the site where a 10-acre business development will be constructed. The Upper Mississippi Center is teaming up with the City of Rock Island to do biological and social assessments in order to research the impacts of the development on this landscape and the Quad Cities community, and to help the city formulate a plan to establish a 600 acre preserve. Pictured are Emerson Lehman and John Stofferahn helping Fiona Brady cross an abandoned beaver dam.
