I was searching for benchmark PID MJ0773 when I stumbled onto this one. It's on the top of the southwest footing of the east end of the rail road bridge over the Iowa Riverfront Trail, immediately south of Harrah's Casino and Hotel. I'm guessing the Army Corps of Engineers set it; however, that is just a guess.
