Downtown DSM Shopping

Just like Downtown DSM, the shops and boutiques in the city are also one-of-a-kind. From vintage clothes and jewelry to screen-printed posters by local artists, you can find what you need (or just want!). Support our neighborhood business owners in the Historic East Village, Western Gateway, as well as those in neighboring areas, including the Avenues of Ingersoll and Grand or the Drake University area.
