The L. Harbach & Sons Co. Warehouse and Factory Complex, built in 1906, includes two newly rehabilitated buildings that consist of 103 studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments; retail space; theater room; and fitness room. 

This new development has brought more market rate apartments and living to downtown Des Moines. Between the two separate buildings, a center courtyard gives a visual and physical connection, re-imagining the past building connection. A National Registered of Historic Places building, the rehabilitation highlights the warehouse's and factory's history while recreating the space for contemporary use.
