Callaway at Holland Pointe Takes Shape in One Of Iowa’s Fastest‑Growing Communities

In this article:

Construction progress at Callaway at Holland Pointe continues to accelerate, bringing new energy to Norwalk and reinforcing Hubbell Realty Company’s long‑standing strength in multifamily development across Central Iowa. Located at the southwest corner of Waller Avenue and Sayre Drive, in the popular and growing Holland Pointe neighborhood, this 148‑home apartment and townhome community blends modern amenities, walkable connectivity, and thoughtful design tailored to Iowans needs.

As of April, the project is just shy of 70 percent complete, with first rental home deliveries projected for later this summer and overall construction completion anticipated by end of 2026.

Visible Progress From the Ground Up

Recent construction milestones underscore steady momentum on site. Interior finishes are advancing in the first building, with drywall finishing complete on the first and second floors and cabinetry installed on the third floor. Exterior masonry is underway on the Montecristo buildings, while framing has begun on the Carbon buildings. The clubhouse and pool area are also taking shape, with countertops installed and the pool shell complete.

This progress is driven by Hubbell Construction Services, whose in‑house construction expertise allows for tighter coordination, consistent quality, and reliable timelines across every phase of development.

“When development, construction, and management teams are aligned from day one, projects move faster and perform better long term,” said Matt Weller, Vice President of Development at Hubbell Realty Company.

Vertical Integration That Builds Confidence

Callaway at Holland Pointe is a clear example of Hubbell’s vertically integrated approach, bringing together:

  1. Development expertise through Hubbell Realty Company’s Development Services
  2. Construction execution via Hubbell Construction Services
  3. Multifamily management and leasing led by Indigo Living

This alignment strengthens early marketing, supports pre‑leasing activity, and creates a seamless transition from construction to day‑to‑day operations. Indigo Living’s market‑driven leasing strategies help generate early interest in the community while ensuring a strong resident experience from opening day forward.

“Development isn’t just about adding buildings. It’s about creating places where people want to live, work, and stay. Thoughtful planning today sets the foundation for success decades from now,” said Mayor Phillips in a 2025 interview with Hubbell.

A Strategic Location Poised for Long‑Term Demand

Norwalk continues to stand out as one of the Des Moines metro’s most dynamic growth markets. Callaway at Holland Pointe sits just minutes from Highway 5, downtown Des Moines, and major employment centers, while also benefiting from nearby investments like the Norwalk Central mixed‑use district. This connectivity supports sustained demand for well‑designed rental housing that balances convenience with neighborhood character.

“This is also a city to age in place,” said Weller. “At Holland Pointe, you have everything from a starter apartment, to a single-family starter home, larger executive home lots, 55+ homes at Aventura, as well as neighboring senior living communities.”

Built on a Proven Track Record

Since 1856, Hubbell has built a reputation for delivering high‑quality communities that stand the test of time. With over 6,000 apartment homes developed and over 8,200 managed across the Midwest, Hubbell’s experience provides confidence to partners seeking thoughtfully executed real estate opportunities backed by operational strength.
