The south side of the building's site was formerly occupied by The Chamberlain Hotel. The Ruan Center is locally famous as the "rusty skyscraper", for its Cor-Ten steel cladding that sheds rust.[4] The exterior skin is composed of 1,600 US tons of Cor-Ten steel, and 4,700 US tons of structural steel were used in the building's frame. The building consists mainly of office space and is connected to Des Moines' skywalk system. The 33rd and 34th floors are home to the Des Moines Club, a private members-only restaurant.[5] The Ruan Center was named one of the 50 Most Significant Iowa Buildings of the 20th Century by the Iowa chapter of the American Institute of Architects.
