Greater South Side, located between Downtown Des Moines and the Des Moines International Airport, is a residential and industrial Des Moines neighborhood with river-adjacent green space and a grid of long, working streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around SW 9th Street near the Fort Des Moines Park area, where corner markets, taquerias, auto shops, and school campuses set a steady, everyday rhythm. Brick bungalows and modest mid-century houses mix with light-industrial buildings and rail-side corridors. Fort Des Moines Park and the Des Moines River Greenbelt shape the outdoor backdrop with trails and open fields. The Blank Park Zoo and the historic Fort Des Moines Museum & Education Center act as cultural anchors. Southridge Mall adds a practical retail hub along SE 14th Street.
