HAWKEYE LAND COMPANY was formed in 1985 with the acquisition of various property interests of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Company's property in Iowa, Minnesota and South Dakota. We currently have holdings in Iowa, Illinois and Minnesota and are constantly looking for additional acquisitions with the goal of development, marketing and land leases. Hawkeye has a full service real estate department with in-house marketing.

With our acquisition of former railroad real estate we also purchased the easement granting rights for our property holdings. We continue to grant easements for utility installations throughout the Midwest on abandoned railroad property and property currently being operated by several railroad companies including the Union Pacific Railroad, Iowa Interstate Railroad, CSX Transportation and the recent acquisition by the Iowa Northwestern Railroad Company. For more information on easements for utility installations or other usage, please contact our office.

In addition to railroad property acquisitions Hawkeye Land Company owns and offers for lease various real estate opportunities in Cedar Rapids, Iowa and Savanna, Illinois. These properties include space for office, retail, and various commercial and industrial businesses. For information regarding these properties, please contact our marketing department.

Hawkeye Land Company is always looking for additional acquisitions or property managment oppertunities for railroad lands. If you have a corridor that we can help with please let us know.
