East Village is known as Des Moines’ most vibrant and diverse district. Located between the Iowa State Capital and the Des Moines River in downtown Des Moines, East Village is a charming place to call home. The neighborhood is highly accessible by car, bike, bus, and even foot. History runs deep in East Village, recognized by historical museums and landmarks. The State Historical Museum of Iowa is a must-visit location to learn more about Iowa’s rich heritage. Historical landmarks can be found throughout town and include the Liberty Bell Memorial, Vietnam War Memorial, Soldiers and Sailors Monument, and American Revolution Memorial.
Shopping, fine dining, and an upbeat nightlife are perks of living in this wonderful downtown area. If you’re looking for live music, check out Wooly’s, a town hot spot for live entertainment. Get a drink before a show at the Iowa Taproom, a historic, industrial bar with an array of craft beers and locally crafted eats.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Property Ratings at Velocity
Great place to live. Within walking distance to all the East Village has to offer, downtown Farmers Market, and Wells Fargo Arena. Community events every Wednesday night with food and friends.
I've really enjoyed living at Verve! The amenities are very nice and I love how close I am to so many things to do. The staff is friendly and maintenance request are dealt with promptly.
Since the beginning of looking into Verve the staff has been amazing. I have never been in a place that genuinely cares about the people who live in their building. Always events going on and very professional when issues or questions arise. Would highly recommend
I love living at Verve! The staff is always very friendly and willing to help with anything. Maintenance requests are dealt with quickly and the amenities are top notch! Also, they do great weekly events where we get to eat free food and mingle with neighbors! What's not to love?!
Verve has been an awesome place to live. We love that it's very dog friendly with quite a bit of green space and is located right next to the river with miles and miles of walking trails! Building is very clean, friendly staff, well decorated, and updated.
Very kind community. Within walking distance to everything the East Village has to offer. Close to downtown and other attractions.
Would recommend the Verve, property management does a great job with interacting with tenants, the apartments are spacious with great finishes, and the apartment will share the pool amenity when construction is done on Velocity across the street.
Awesome place to live and I enjoy walking around east village when and checking out the local shops and restaurants!
I love living at the Verve, it is a very nice building with great amenities. I love the location, close to downtown but not too close to the hustle and bustle. Definitely would recommend to a friend.
Perfect location because it is so close to tons of restaurants, bars, and attractions. The apartment and amenities in the building are fantastic and always clean. The staff and maintenance team are always very helpful and quick. Great place to live. Definitely recommend.
The Verve apartments are a great place to live. The apartments themselves are sleek, modern, and have a great view of downtown. They provide a fitness room, social events once a week, a game room, and a TV room. The indoor parking is a plus. The walls are thick, which makes it a quiet place to live.
The Verve community is a great place to live. The design and floor plans of the units are exceptional. The location is very convenient to all Des Moines has to offer. The building and common areas are well maintained.
Living at the Verve has been great. The units are new and the amenities are great. Management is attentive to any problems, pets are allowed, there are management hosted social dinners on some nights. The East Village and downtown are just steps away. If you're considering moving downtown, consider the Verve.
I love living at the Verve! It’s a safe complex with a great view. Amazing amenities and lovely building. My apartment is spacious and I have access to a garage!
I have loved living at the Verve! It is the perfect mix of luxury and convenience. The units have so many unique decor and great appliances. You’ll have to take a tour to truly appreciate all the amazing community rooms! The location is also a great bonus. It is tucked away from the business of downtown, but walking distance to everything fun in the east village and downtown.
We love living here! It is a beautiful building with great management! They also allow large dogs with reasonable pet rent and deposit. The appliances are great and our unit has a full size washer and dryer and not a stackable. There is lots of places to take the dogs out in comparison to other downtown buildings.
Very professional community. Close to Downtown attractions and restaurants. Waking distance to everything in East Village. Decor including light fixtures, cabinets, ascent walls, are upscale & hip looking, amenities are awesome, and apartments are well constructed. Very quiet place and the views are beautiful.
