  • The Power of Vision, Leadership and Consensus: Downtown Des Moines Transformation 1980–2019 Received (In Revised Form): 25Th November, 2019
    The power of vision, leadership and consensus: Downtown Des Moines transformation 1980–2019 Received (in revised form): 25th November, 2019 David M. Feehan is a world-recognised expert in downtown revitalisation. For more than 40 years he has provided leadership and management to successful downtown and business district organisations, founded and directed a technical assistance centre for community development organisations and a public policy organisation. He has also authored numerous books and articles and taught at two universities. He is often quoted by news media throughout North America, the Caribbean and elsewhere. Patricia Zingsheim Patricia Zingsheim consults in architecture and urban design, in the public sector and the private sector, with a focus on the redevelopment of emerging urban areas along waterfronts and in downtowns. She was Associate Director of Design and Chief of Downtown Planning for the Government of the District of Columbia for the past 15 years and prior to that in private urban design consulting in Boston. She was awarded the Loeb Fellowship at Harvard University based on the role she played in Des Moines from 1983-7, where she led the Planning and Urban Design Division for the City of Des Moines. Abstract By the 1980s, downtown Des Moines had developed as a successful office centre, with major insurance companies headquartered there. Nevertheless, it lacked many of the attributes and qualitative elements that create a dynamic social and cultural place that would attract the talent companies needed, or have the makings of a great place dear to the community. There was little downtown housing, no pedestrian activity, few retail outlets and quality restaurants were few.

  • Prairie Meadows
    SPRING 2013 PRAIRIE MEADOWS MAKING A DIFFERENCE DEAR FRIENDS, Prairie Meadows began operations in 1989 and, over the course of nearly 25 years, one common thread has remained consistent – that Prairie Meadows be a catalyst for jobs, economic development, agriculture and tourism. That has remained our goal ever since and has allowed us to provide our state and local community with more than $1.2 billion in taxes and community betterment funding. We are an excellent example of how a public/private partnership can benefit our local community, and we take great pride in being a non-profit organization that can help make a difference in the lives of Iowans. Prairie Meadows is the result of a complete community effort, thanks to the commitment of so many people – volunteers, business leaders, elected officials, and hundreds of others who have been instrumental in the development and continued success of one of the great public/private business experiments in the entertainment industry.

Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to share with you the great work being done through our giving and through the hard work of like-minded citizens who realize the potential the Des Moines area has to become one of this country’s great cities.
