e5w (East 5th and Walnut) is located in the heart of the East Village in downtown Des Moines. The new building is a mixed use project with ground level retail, second level office and three levels of condominium space. The project pays tribute to the historic nature of the East Village yet is undeniably contemporary with its large windows, metal canopy entrance and layered precast structure. The building explores the idea of “peeling away” the corner to create a unique urban end.
