Officials in the eastern Iowa city say the city is building a bigger flood barrier in the wake of an April breach that sent floodwaters rushing into downtown streets. Davenport City Administrator Corri Spiegel tells the Quad-City Times that the city will build larger flood walls when there is a high probability the river cresting above 21 feet. Days after the last temporary barrier broke on April 30, the river hit a historic crest of 22.7 feet. (Kevin E. Schmidt/Quad City Times via AP, File)
