Our Bike Lounges in each building are a bicyclist’s dream.

Our commitment to bicyclists even includes special bike ramps on the stairs to make rolling your bike a breeze.

Bike security and convenience

Most of our apartments are designed with areas to keep your bike close by, but for added convenience secure bike storage hooks and lockers are available in the Bike Lounges. When you’re not out exploring the trails your bike has a home here.

Quick Access to great trails

Harbach Lofts is literally the hub of the trail system in central Iowa. The trails at our front door are your gateway to adventure. Within minutes you can be gliding along the Des Moines River or cruising down the Ingersoll Avenue entertainment corridor.
