"5th Avenue Downtown"
5th Avenue downtown is the street and home of the Wells Fargo Arena as well as taking you directly to the downtown scenes. The vibe down there is fun and people crack me up sometimes lol. The area is fun and yes there is some living residential to now in the downtown Des Moines. There is a new central library in downtown now and it is great. 5th avenue will take you back up to Mercy Hospital if needed and to night life as well such as some nice local bars with great food and historical neighborhood's as well. If you like the hussle and fast pace i have to say for Des Moines it got it.
There is plenty of buses and cabs to find all over when you are down town so you do not have to worry to much on that. IT is also nice to just walk around down there since there is so much to see.
