Notes
  • Significance: The Equitable Life Assurance Company Building, designed in 1891 by a prominent Boston firm, exemplifies the late nineteenth century design and construction technology developed for large commercial and office buildings. The elegant structure was associated with important individuals in the business history of Des Moines, and with the late-nineteenth century development of the state's urban center.
