The plan, launched in September 2024, focuses on enhancing the Ankeny Boulevard corridor between First Street and Oralabor Road to create a commercial district that will be sustainable and complement shopping areas on Delaware Avenue and the District at Prairie Trail. Public input shared with the city council in January by Des Moines-based consultant Confluence said that the corridor should feature more sit-down restaurants, mixed-use development and retail, and multifamily residential development. More information about the plan is available on the city of Ankeny’s website.
