The University of Iowa Pride Alliance Center will open its new location at 601 Melrose Ave. this fall after having its initial location closed.

Originally, the Pride Alliance Center operated out of 125 Grand Ave. Court before a temporary closure and a move to the Iowa Memorial Union. The news of the move comes after the state Board of Regents approved the university’s request to raze the Grand Avenue Court building.
