In May 2014, CYC moved into our current ‘Forever Home’ at 1446 Martin Luther King, Jr. Parkway in Des Moines. Along with making the building more sustainable by replacing the 1980 HVAC system with high efficiency units, adding insulation to the roof, and upgrading all lights to LED, we hope to mirror sustainability in our programming and in our community.
