The Northside is an active and dynamic neighborhood, and video does a great job of capturing the fun and excitement of living and visiting here. Watch this space for more videos in future, and contact us if you have ideas for video content!

The NNA’s “Goodbye Summer - Hello Neighbors” event at North Market Square Park on Sept. 10, 2023, was made all the more special by Northsider Dave Moore and his musical friends. Check out this snippet of a tune about Dave’s youthful obsession with baseball and school yards.

This 5-minute video was created by Iowa City’s Channel 4 in 2017. It provides a lively overview of the neighborhood’s history, variety, and opportunities. Some content is dated (small kids are now in college!), but the basic character of the neighborhood comes through.

We encourage all residents to support the many businesses housed on the Northside, whether in the popular North Market Square area — as seen in this video by Iowa City’s Downtown District — or on Dodge Street, such as Ace Hardware, Dodge Street Tire & Auto, and the Design Ranch.

This 6-minute video was created by a local realtor, and does not imply endorsement by the NNA. However, for newcomers to the Northside, this virtual tour is a pleasant introduction to the Brown Street portion of the neighborhood as well as a demonstration of its proximity to North Market Square businesses, downtown Iowa City, and the UI campus.
