Des Moines Bus Station
[1] The bus station building sits in the River Bend neighborhood, at the northeast corner of 2nd Avenue and Clark Street.[2] On January 5, 1932, a new union bus depot opened at 505 Grand Avenue, built by Chicago & North Western Stages.Alongside Continental American Trailways, Jefferson Transportation Company and Marshall-Boonville Stage Line also moved to the new facility.[6] In 1972, the station at 505 Grand closed after 40 years of service, being replaced by a Greyhound Lines terminal at 1107 Keosauqua Way, which opened the morning of July 27.[8][9] By 2013, the bus station on Keosauqua Way was beginning to show its age, and Burlington Trailways and Jefferson Lines were the only remaining operators.
