Riverview Amusement Park in Des Moines was closed in 1979. This clip shows how the land looks today with some of the old ride remnants and concrete still visible. It is maintained by the Kiwanis club and is now a neighborhood park and wildlife habitat. Rains every spring always cause some partial flooding also visible in the clip.

  • @mikeb1314 Riverview is just west of North High School.

  • @mikeb1314 if you havent found it yet its across the road from birdland pool where north high school is

  • Where exactly is this in Des Moines? I've heard of it over the years I lived in Ames / DM area but never checked out the island. I'd love to go when I make it back to town in the near future.

  • I was JUST there yesterday wishing there was a video just like this one to watch, no kidding! Thanks for posting, fabulous little video.....Riverview was the best, and I miss it very much.

  • my mom used to go there when she was a kid . I went to north high in the 90s ,i think before it was what it is now .My friends and I used to go there and check out the old band stand and the tunnel of love is still there!
