Downtown Revitalization

The City of Urbandale is actively implementing a long-term Downtown Master Plan aimed at transforming the Douglas Avenue corridor into a vibrant, walkable district. The plan includes over $40 million in infrastructure improvements, enhanced streetscapes, and new public spaces. The initiative encourages mixed-use development, combining residential, retail, and office uses to foster a dynamic urban environment. With flexible zoning and strategic incentives, Urbandale is positioning its downtown as a hub for community engagement and economic growth – creating new opportunities for residents, businesses, and investors.

Regional Medical Campus​

Total Health Experience, a transformative $250 million medical campus, is currently under construction in Urbandale, with completion of the first building anticipated in 2027. Spanning 25 acres, the campus will feature nine state-of-the-art medical buildings offering a comprehensive range of services. Located just four miles west of the Line Seven site, this major health care development is expected to generate significant employment and drive demand for nearby housing, positioning Line Seven to benefit from increased workforce and community activity in the area.

Urban Loop​

Line Seven sits just six minutes west of Urbandale’s Urban Loop, a thriving commercial corridor centered around the I-35/80 interchange. Also known as the Des Moines Home Improvement Corridor, the Loop combines retail strength with employment density, making it a magnet for renters. Recent infrastructure investments – including new interchanges and the Highway 141 flyover – have made it one of the most accessible and development-ready areas in the metro. Its strategic location and strong job base continue to attract both businesses and residents, making it a key driver of regional growth.
