Little Rock’s history is also available to residents and visitors in a variety of ways; history museums, historic districts or neighborhoods like the Quapaw Quarter, and historic sites like Little Rock Central High School.

If you’re in this southern city, here are a few things to see:

Around the City:

The Clinton Presidential Park Bridge

Located in downtown Little Rock, this pedestrian and cyclist bridge connects Little Rock to North Little Rock over the Arkansas river and is a staple of the Little Rock skyline.

Bill Clinton on the Bridge Project:

“The conversion of the historic railroad bridge into a pedestrian pathway will give Central Arkansas a distinctive landmark and will complete one of the best urban trail systems in the country. By connecting important destinations, including my Presidential Center, the bridge will also support revitalization efforts in downtown Little Rock.”
