About the Area
Prairie Trail
The Estates at Prairie Trail in Ankeny has been chosen as the site for the Home Show Expo 2015. Aside from its 13 miles of trails and 200 acres of parks, Prairie Trail is also a place where business is thriving, education is valued, and neighbors can become quick friends. All of the green space included in this area creates a healthy and sustainable living environment for residents. The custom homes are beautiful, distinct, and designed to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly. Many of them were built using special energy saving techniques and exceed energy efficiency requirements set by NAHB and Energy Star.
New Urbanism
Prairie Trail reflects the idea of “new urbanism,” an urban design movement that encourages diversity in housing, various job opportunities, and the ability to commute to various places by foot. With booming businesses, restaurants, schools, grocers, and homes all within walking distance, Prairie Trail actualizes this idea.
Growth and Opportunity
Many new businesses are popping up around this area, including WD Door! Our new office is just a couple of miles away from this young, vibrant, rapidly growing community. Ankeny is actually one of the fastest growing communities in the entire state and is nationally recognized as being one of the safest and most family-friendly cities in the nation.
We are very excited about all of the opportunity Ankeny has to offer and are eager to see where the growth and development leads in the future!
