Martin-Hickman, located between Martin Luther King Jr Parkway and Fleur Drive, is a residential and civic Des Moines neighborhood with a river-edge setting and a campus-like streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Iowa State Capitol complex, where broad lawns, formal steps, and steady foot traffic set a ceremonial tone. Brick institutional buildings and older homes share the grid, with long sightlines toward downtown. The State Historical Museum of Iowa and the Des Moines Civic Center add a cultural backbone nearby. Trails and open greens along the Des Moines River shape daily routines and weekend wandering.
