Des Moines Register: An old Gordmans on Des Moines’ east side is slated to become a storage unit facility, but residents say they’d prefer something else. Heather Chamberlain, a longtime east Des Moines resident, has been leading a petition both online and door to door to stop the development, saying it isn’t what east-siders deserve. She has collected nearly 1,400 signatures. “We need a Fareway or a Price Chopper over there,” Chamberlain said. “Not another storage unit.”
