BUTT'S FLORIST. Founded in 1958, Butt's Florist was located at 2179 University in 1959.

The 1964 through 2013 Dubuque City Directory listed 2300 University and University and Asbury in 2011.

The 1993 Dubuque City Directory listed Butt's Main Street Florist at 233 Main.

The council unanimously approved the purchase of Butt's Florist during its meeting on Monday, April 20, 2016. The property sits at the corner of University Avenue. The city plans to replace the three-way stop at University Avenue and Asbury Road with a roundabout. The city has been considering the project for the past 15 years. The project will also include beautifying the east-west corridor. (1)
