Des Moines is looking to buy a building nationwide

At six, big changes may soon come to Des Moines. City leaders announced a plan today to move its employees out of the offices they’ve been using for more than 100 years. Their new home, built nationwide at KCCI 12 and LOCUST, is BEAU BOWMAN LIVE THERE TIGHT WITH THE SCHEDULE when city employees can. We will take it upon ourselves to approve the purchase agreement between the city and state on Monday at their regular meeting. But city employees won’t move until at least 2024. This building should suit us like glut. The City of Des Moines is now planning to move nearly all of its city employees to this building located at 1200 Locust Street, and the old building across the country has been an empty lot since the outbreak of the pandemic. That’s why they agreed to sell it. and a parking garage two blocks south of town for $40.6 million, 40 million being the purchase cost. We know we’ll have costs above and beyond that after the deal closes in about nine months, the city will start designing and building a new office. By 2024, they hope to move staff from the army building, town hall and even the police station, abandoning the East Village. But opening those spaces for redevelopment down the road. This is a historical revival. Again, I think we’ll bring more life to that area than we currently have just five days a week. Des Moines first moved into what is now Old Town Hall 120 years ago. They hope this new space will last for as long, if not longer, as we’ve shown. We stay in our facilities for a long time, 100 years. So this building behind us, it’s going to be a city office for another hundred years. Now, the city says the police department will be the last to move to this new location. Nationwide plans to keep building it directly to the east of this one at 1100 LOCUST. We live in downtown Moen.
