HUB Tower, Office skyscraper in downtown Des Moines, United States.

HUB Tower rises 325 feet with 25 floors, featuring a facade of glass, metal, and brick elements topped by a gabled front hipped roof tower.

Construction of the skyscraper began in 1984 under Herbert Lewis Kruse Blunck Architecture's design, with The Weitz Company completing the project in 1986.

The building represents a milestone in Des Moines' commercial development, standing as the sixth tallest structure in the city alongside the EMC Insurance Building.

Located at 699 Walnut Street, the structure combines an 18-story office tower with a seven-story base containing retail spaces, accessible through DART public transit.

In March 2014, the tower underwent repairs after sustaining damage from a fire that destroyed the adjacent Younkers Building during its renovation.

Location: Iowa

Inception: 1986
