Vertical Living in the Metro
Downtown Des Moines defines vertical living, offering a sharp contrast to the city’s traditional single-family landscape. The architecture is a compelling blend of history and modern design: century-old warehouses converted into industrial-chic lofts with exposed brick sit alongside contemporary high-rises offering sleek, glass-walled condominiums.
The real estate market is driven by demand for low-maintenance, "lock-and-leave" ownership. Unlike suburban markets, valuations here are dictated by specific assets—such as deeded parking, tax abatement status, and balcony access—rather than lot size. Sustained demand from professionals and empty nesters supports a dynamic inventory ranging from efficient studios to high-value luxury penthouses.
The Lifestyle you Deserve
Living in Downtown Des Moines means inhabiting the energetic core of the region, where cultural events and festivals happen right outside your door. The neighborhood is anchored by the world-renowned Downtown Farmers Market, the stunning Papajohn Sculpture Park, and riverside baseball at Principal Park, creating an ideal environment for those craving a dynamic, walkable lifestyle.
A defining convenience is the extensive Skywalk system, a climate-controlled network turning winter commutes into comfortable, coat-free experiences. This true "live-work-play" environment offers a seamless transition from the office to the city’s best breweries and dining. It is the perfect setting for those who value efficiency and want to be fully immersed in the metropolitan rhythm.
Reimagining Education
Downtown Des Moines offers a distinct urban educational experience under Des Moines Public Schools. The neighborhood is anchored by the historic Walnut Street School, an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School located in the downtown core. While secondary school zones can vary based on location, many downtown students progress to Callanan Middle School and subsequently Roosevelt High School.
Uniquely, residents live adjacent to the district's premier assets: Central Academy and Central Campus, which offer specialized advanced and career-technical coursework, as well as the main Central Library. For families seeking private school options, the downtown location ensures convenient commutes to the extensive network of metro private and parochial schools.
