The Hotel Fort Des Moines lobby has been renovated and restored back to its original, two-story space for the first time since 1962, when it was condensed to half its height.
Additional hotel renovations are fully underway, with all 12 levels of the hotel undergoing changes.
If you have a momento, photo or letter you’d like to have incorporated into the history of the hotel, submissions can be sent to memories@hotelfortdesmoines.com.
