Southdale Shopping Center is located in the heart of the retail activity in one of Des Moines' most traveled corridors. It is located on a key local thoroughfare that connects the southern suburbs and communities via Hwy 5 and intersects to the north with Interstate 235. This area's accessibility from major interstates also creates a semi-regional draw. Located less than four miles from downtown Des Moines, this area has the potential to draw patrons from the booming office and residential market, as well as the densely populated area surrounding the center.
