Cityville on 9th offers 312 apartment units, built in three phases between 2015-18. The community includes 42 studios, 162 one-bedroom units, 99 two-bedroom units, and 9 three-bedroom units. The property also includes 48,000 square feet of commercial space, presenting an investment opportunity with value-add potential. Amenities include a resort-style pool and sundeck, dog park, courtyard with patio and grilling stations, 24-hour fitness center, game room, theater room, business center with conference room, and coffee bar.

Situated on the southern edge of Downtown Des Moines, near the rapidly growing Gray's Station neighborhood, Cityville on 9th benefits from its proximity to downtown employment, nearby Gray’s Lake, numerous bike and walking trails and Principal Park, home of the Iowa Cubs. 

ACG secured Fannie Mae loan assumptions for two of the phases at very attractive interest rates and worked with West Bank, a local bank, on the financing of the third phase.

"We’re excited to acquire another outstanding Des Moines community, a core-plus investment that produces value-add returns," said Sean Fogarty, Partner at ARTISAN Capital Group.

“We continue to seek quality assets and, if available, those with favorable assumable debt and Cityville checks both of those boxes" said Ryan Cahalan, Partner at ARTISAN Capital Group. 

ARTISAN Management Group ("AMG"), ACG's management vertical, will oversee operations at Cityville on 9th, ensuring a seamless transition and the successful execution of ACG's strategy.
