Abstract

The Iowa Institute for the Deaf and Dumb was moved from Iowa City to Council Bluffs in 1870 because the location was readily accessible by railroads and the 80-acre tract of land was purchased for a bargain price of $1,200. The school was a self-sustaining entity with its own farm, power plant and hospital. Today it has a state-of-the-art science center and updated learning spaces. Located at 3501 Harry Langdon Blvd, Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, Iowa. Number 21929.
