Fans, media react to Iowa basketball's overtime loss vs. Virginia Tech

While Iowa basketball (2-1) had chances to grab a key nonconference win over Virginia Tech (3-0) on Tuesday night inside the Tyson Events Center in Sioux City, the Hawkeyes ' shooting struggles from the floor and the free-throw line in regulation and overtime ultimately led to a 93-88 loss. Despite Cooper Koch netting a career-high 26 points on 5 for 11 shooting from the floor and 15 of 17 at the charity stripe and Isaia Howard's 13-point and 15-rebound double-double, Iowa's 16 missed free throws proved costly.

West Des Moines office park could become neighborhood

A sprawling West Des Moines office park that once housed some of the metro's prominent companies could be transformed into apartments, shops and a hotel. Why it matters: Regency West is a mostly vacant, dated office park in a prominent spot next to Interstate 235. Catch up quick: The first Regency West building was constructed in 1981, eventually growing into an eight-building office park along Westown Parkway. The office park, built by Des Moines businessman Marvin Pomerantz, once housed major companies including ITA Group, Equifax, MetLife, Sammons and Holmes Murphy. Over the years, however, tenants have left for newer facilities, while the pandemic also reduced the need for space. R&R Realty purchased the property in 2012 and sold it to Chicago-based Bradford Allen in 2025. State of play: Today, the office park is under 30% capacity with 600,000 square feet of space. Its valuation has dramatically dropped, going from a $52 million assessed valuation in 2023 to just $17 million in 2026. West Des Moines is considering a new tax incentive for the area to help pay for redevelopment costs, says the city's economic development director, Ryan Moffatt. What they're saying: Bradford Allen wants to turn the property into a

State moves to add bobcat trapping in all Iowa counties

DES MOINES — The Iowa Natural Resource Commission is starting the process of changing the rules to open up bobcat trapping statewide. DNR furbearer biologist Vince Evelsizer says the native animals were wiped out during the late 1800 and early 1900s, but made a return in the 1990s. “There’s a lot of indications from our information and from the field that the bobcat population is flourishing in most parts of the state,” Evelsizer says.

Korean fried chicken chain bb.q Chicken coming to Des Moines

The Des Moines metro's Korean fried chicken scene is still young enough that many diners can trace its growth in real time. A few years ago, finding Korean-style fried chicken often meant tracking down a pop-up or ordering from a ghost kitchen. Now one of South Korea's biggest fried chicken brands is preparing to join the local lineup. The globally recognized Korean fried chicken chain, bb.q Chicken , whose name stands for "Best of the Best Quality," is slated to open in the Goldfinch Lofts development at 3404 Ingersoll Ave. in 2027, bringing one of the world's most influential Korean fried chicken concepts to Des Moines, according to a permit filed with the city. Goldfinch Lofts, Cutler Developments’ newest mass timber mixed-use project, is a three-story, carbon-neutral building with apartments above and 9,602 square feet of retail at the base. The Collective, the sustainable retail shop , plans to open on the ground floor in November, leaving its Highland Park space. For local fried-chicken fanatics, it's more than another restaurant opening. It's the latest sign that Korean fried chicken has moved from niche cuisine to one of the fastest-growing dining segments in the Des Moines metro. What is bb.q Chicken?

Des Moines Schools Reach Lawsuit Settlement

The Des Moines Public School District has reached a settlement in a lawsuit against the firm it used to hire former superintendent Ian Roberts. The lawsuit accused JG Consulting of negligence and breach of contract shortly after Roberts was arrested by ICE last year and it was revealed he wasn’t authorized to work in the country. The search firm filed a countersuit, accusing the school district of defamation, but CEO James Guerra says all parties agree that blame belongs with the former superintendent.
