About Moline / Quad Cities

Few US metropolitan areas have a history as unique as the Illinois-Iowa Quad Cities, which grew up on the banks of the mighty Mississippi River. Before western expansion, the area was the site of Saukenuk, the largest Indian settlement in North America. In 1789, a young Sauk named Black Hawk looked on as American forces destroyed his village and, years later, he led his people in what became known as the Black Hawk War. "Indian problems" led to the establishment of a fort on Rock Island, which eventually became the country's leading arsenal. As the river slowly opened to boat traffic, small groups of "rapids pilots" began helping travelers navigate the deadly Rock Island Rapids. About the same time, a young inventor/farmer named John Deere opened his first plow-making plant in Moline. Around these three industries grew the towns of Davenport and Bettendorf, Iowa, and Rock Island and Moline, Illinois. Today, the Quad Cities offer fascinating attractions and activities such as the Black Hawk State Historic Site, shopping in historic East Davenport, clubbing in the Rock Island Arts and Entertainment District, and gambling on a riverboat casino. In the summer, sounds of celebration fill the Upper River Valley during family-friendly festivals such as the internationally recognized Mississippi Valley Blues Festival.

"But honey, they took that tie! I didn't have a choice!" No doubt, this has been the defense for many husbands who remembered to wear their least favorite neck ties to LeClaire's Sneaky Pete's Restaurant, the place where ties go to die. As per tradition, anybody caught wearing a tie to the restaurant will find an eager staff member waiting to snip it off and hang it from the ceiling.
