Re: 32-story Apartment Tower in Des Moines

Last minute proposal submitted by Blackbird, the developer for the other proposed high-rise (see 29 story thread), for this site and they actually got the endorsement from the city’s econ development dept (over the original developer’s proposal). At best, this would top 35 stories. Strange times in ...

Re: 32-story Apartment Tower in Des Moines

It was on the Travel Channel (which I don't regularly watch, so I have to assume I've seen these on other channels as well) I found the commercial on the visitomaha.com site.

The condescending ISU comments aside, I always got the impression ankeny liked living in the Des Moines metro. Me too. Maybe that's why the "...living in heck, I mean Central Iowa..." comment got under my skin and caused me to comment. ....or maybe this poor Cyclone alumnus is just a bit ...

gotta love the Clones and their inferiority complex. Why expand that dump of a stadium when it's sold out once a year?
