Continuing to tell the story: Honoring the Center Street neighborhood

Recently the Trust Fund, UnityPoint Health and numerous community partners came together to dedicate a State of Iowa historical marker on Center Street honoring the area's history as a hub of Black business, culture, and life that was demolished during the 1960s period of Urban Renewal in Des Moines.

This short video produced by UnityPoint Health shares highlights from the ceremony, held October 5, 2023. You can also learn more about the new marker in our complete post on PCHTF.org.
