Waukee is in the midst of a major expansion—and two standout developments leading the charge are Remington Pointe and Prairie Village. Located just west of 6th Street along University Avenue, both communities are transforming open land into thriving, well-connected neighborhoods. Waukee Aerial recently captured the latest construction progress from above—offering a unique look at the groundwork being laid for the city’s future.
Remington Pointe is one of Waukee’s largest new mixed-use developments. This community is designed for flexibility and lifestyle, with a variety of lot types including daylight and walkout basements, along with beautiful green space nearby.
Buyers can choose from four modern home designs offering 3–4 bedrooms, 2–3 baths, and square footage between 1,400 and 1,900. The area is ideal for families, with nearby access to Waukee Elementary, Sugar Creek Golf Course, and future parks and recreation space.
As part of Waukee’s long-term vision, Remington Pointe will eventually connect seamlessly into the Civic Campus area — a hub of city services, community events, and modern infrastructure. Roads, trails, and multi-use greenways are planned to link this development directly to Grand Prairie Parkway, the Kettlestone district, and beyond.
Just around the corner from Remington Pointe, Prairie Village offers a mix of upscale townhomes, apartment living, and standalone homes. The development features 2- and 3-bedroom units with attached garages, private patios, and access to lifestyle amenities like a clubhouse, swimming pool, fitness center, and dog park.
Apartments are built for comfort and style, with open-concept living, smart layouts, and beautiful outdoor spaces. Whether you’re renting or buying, Prairie Village blends suburban peace with urban access.
Its location on the expanding University Avenue corridor makes it ideal for those commuting to Des Moines or seeking quick access to shopping, dining, and parks. As University Ave continues its westward expansion, Prairie Village will benefit from enhanced traffic flow, bike paths, and access to new civic spaces and retail developments.
Both Remington Pointe and Prairie Village are part of a larger movement to make west Waukee one of the most livable, walkable, and connected regions in Central Iowa.
As more infrastructure is completed—such as expanded roadways, pedestrian trails, and utility networks—these developments are poised to become anchors of community life in a fast-growing metro.
Stay tuned as Waukee Aerial continues to document the transformation from dirt to dream homes. We’re proud to help tell the story of a city on the rise—one flight at a time.
