Review Visit: November 17th, 2014…read more The Davenport Skybridge is a nifty pedestrian bridge that lets you take in the views of the city and see things from a 'high up' perspective. Right outside where Rhythm City Casino used to be, this bridge is easily accessible and free to use. You can take an elevator or stairs to the top and once up there, you can walk from end to end. There are glass inserts in the ground that lets you see traffic whizz by underneath you. The walls are mostly glass that lets you get a great view of the city. The only disappointing thing about the bridge is that at one of the ends, you are just overlooking a bunch of buildings, so the view is kind of lame. But to each their own. Overall, it's a great view and if you are in the area, just park at the casino and check it out.

For a medium size city it is a nice attraction. Kansas City has something similar at our riverfront, but it is not as elevated to give as good of a vista of the downtown area. Certainly a must do when visiting the Quad Cities to acclimate oneself to the area.

Wow I stopped by to check this place out because it looked like an outdoor military museum but it's…read morefar from that because it's a highly guarded property, It has a police checkpoint to get through so you have to go to the visitor center and fill out a pass request form, have two forms of identification, pass a criminal background check and if your driving a valid drivers license, valid registration and proof of valid insurance. I wish I knew this because all I had was my drivers on me and no second form of identification. Nothing touristy is worth seeing if you have to jump through tons of hoops.

Great alternative bridge if 280 or 80 isn't your cup of tea. Great access to going over the border. I'm very thankful that the illinois side of the bridge haven't thought about adding a toll to cross it yet.

This is a TINY museum--one room--located in a beautiful building at the Black Hawk State Historic…read moreSite. There are dioramas, descriptions of how the Sauk and Meskwaki Indians lived their daily lives throughout the seasons, wickiups and exhibits of tools under glass. There is a large hall that can be rented for functions, and in the back of the building is a room that houses a museum dedicated to the men of the CCCs (Civilian Conservation Corps) who constructed this building with all the materials found on site. My dad is a history buff and had things to say about this place--it used to be an amusement park long ago with a slide that went down to the river, the view is ugly now with the rock quarry behind the site, this building may have burned down and been rebuilt a couple times, the statue of Black Hawk out back was once located in a plaza downtown, my grandfather played taps on his bugle as a boyscout in the hall here, etc. I would say that if you are very interested in the local history of the American Indians and you have nothing better to do, then a visit here might be useful. You can be done in little as 10 minutes. Otherwise, skip it. Note: my Garmin took me to a driveway on the other side of the little park, which is a private residence, so avoid that.

The house is restored in a way that shows you some of the original structure. Furnishings are all period pieces, I think there was one family piece there. You have to see the house via guided tours which looked like they started based on when visitors arrived. I was a little frustrated at having to sit through a slow paced and overly detailed introduction before we could see the house. I've been a docent at another house and it's easy to think as a docent that your side stories are as interesting to guests as they are to you.
