R&T Lofts Apartments

A HISTORIC DOWNTOWN LANDMARK REIMAGINED FOR MODERN URBAN LIVING

Colliers is pleased to present R&T Lofts, a distinctive loft community that blends historic character with modern urban living in the heart of Downtown Des Moines. Formerly home to The Des Moines Register and Tribune for 95 years, the iconic tower was thoughtfully redeveloped into a 164-unit, marketrate residential community offering spacious studio, one-, and two-bedroom lofts and townhomes, complemented by four ground-floor commercial spaces. The property preserves the authentic industrial character of its newspaper legacy—highlighted by expansive ceiling heights and large loft-style windows—while delivering a comprehensive amenity package that includes a fitness center, resident lounge, rooftop deck, and controlled-access parking. Direct connectivity to Downtown Des Moines’ 4.2- mile, climate-controlled skywalk system further enhances the resident experience, providing year-round pedestrian access to employment centers, dining, entertainment, and parking throughout the urban core.
