Davenport: Iowa's Mississippi River City
Davenport sits on the Mississippi River as the largest of the Quad Cities, a metropolitan area spanning the Iowa-Illinois border. The city has a population of about 102,600. Unlike most Mississippi River cities, Davenport has no permanent flood wall, relying instead on temporary barriers during high water events. The 2019 flood breached a temporary barrier and flooded parts of downtown.
The Figge Art Museum, designed by David Chipperfield, stands on the riverfront and holds a collection that includes Grant Wood works and Haitian art. The Adler Theatre hosts touring performances. River Bandits baseball at Modern Woodmen Park puts the Mississippi directly behind the outfield fence.
Palmer College of Chiropractic, founded in Davenport in 1897, is considered the birthplace of chiropractic medicine. The college campus occupies a prominent hill above the downtown riverfront.
Freight rail still plays a role in the city's economy, though manufacturing, healthcare, and education have become the primary employers. The Rock Island Arsenal, an active military installation on an island in the Mississippi between Davenport and Rock Island, Illinois, employs both military and civilian workers.
