He said the proximity to Jordan Creek Town Center and other shopping, dining and entertainment in West Des Moines is attractive to potential tenants. Hogan, of CBRE, said in a news release that the firm is already working with several companies interested in space there. The rest of the development would include retail and office space.

"We are very happy to hear that this development may include a sizable quality housing component. West Des Moines, like many cities, is experiencing these same constraints," West Des Moines Mayor Russ Trimble said in a statement. This inability is often directly tied to the limited supply of quality workforce housing located near their jobs. "One of the most critical issues facing businesses today is the ability to attract employees, especially in the service industry. The development is expected to create 1,000 jobs in the service industry. In addition to the entertainment center, about half of the planned 1,200 housing units would rent at rates affordable to the Des Moines metro's workforce. It would also rank among the highest in the metro. The investment would rank among the highest in West Des Moines, beyond Microsoft, which has invested billions of dollars into its data centers nearby. Jordan Creek Town Center, which opened in 2004, was a $200 million development - about $314 million when adjusted for inflation. Hogan called the proposed West Des Moines version the "Great Wolf Lodge on steroids."Ĭlyde Evans, community and economic development director for West Des Moines, said the project will have as much impact on the area as Jordan Creek Town Center, and could transform empty fields into a destination for the Midwest. At 38,000 square feet, the Great Wolf Lodge has a lazy river, several water slides, a water fort treehouse and hot springs. The centerpiece of the proposed development would be a water park two-and-a-half times the size of the Great Wolf Lodge water park in Kansas City, Kansas, and more akin to something found in the Wisconsin Dells, Hogan said. "This is not scaled back," Riley Hogan, senior vice president for real estate services firm CBRE, told the Des Moines Register.
