Here's a look at this week's front page.

Cedar Rapids entrepreneur Briana Mills — along with her husband Ean — turned years of frustrating business travel into a solution. Flight Ready Parking launched in February 2025 with a simple mission: make getting to and from Eastern Iowa Airport seamless, stress-free and weather-proof.

Also in this issue: Developer Joe Ahmann is ready to take Kingston Yard to the next level. "Kingston Yard North" will expand the landmark development across First Avenue West — the final chapter of the long-running "First and First West" project.

Plus — Zach Johnson on what he calls his greatest achievement (hint: it's not either of his major championships), and how one entrepreneur turned a love of vintage into, Annata Vintage Rental Co., a booming wedding rental business.

Subscribers can read these stories — and more — online or in print.

The Corridor Business Journal earned six national awards from The Alliance of Area Business Publishers this year.

The CBJ’s story "$28M foreclosure ruling sends iconic Iowa City properties to auction”, by Annie Smith Barkalow, was awarded gold in Best Scoop.

Judges commented: “The story was published prior to an official announcement, with other outlets following their coverage. The article was well written and clearly identified barriers that prolonged the project and outlined how innovative the company’s strategy was. In addition to highlighting property discussions, the piece did an excellent job of wrapping in critical housing discussions concerning mixed used development for these structures that many cities face.”

Subscribers can read this article, and more, on the CBJ's website.
