Downtown Sites & Buildings

From site selection to property and land development, learning about Downtown Des Moines’ (DSM's) available sites and buildings is a major step to locating or expanding a business in the region. One of the best ways for businesses to select a Downtown property is through the LocationOne Information System (LOIS). LOIS, a searchable economic development database, provides users with detailed information on buildings and with accompanying market statistics from Esri. LOIS features and functionalities are accessible across all devices.

For more information contact Renae Mauk, Senior Director of Downtown Development.
