North Little Rock sits on the north bank of the Arkansas River, directly across from the state capital, giving residents a city of their own with immediate access to a major metro area. The two cities share the iconic Big Dam Bridge, one of the longest pedestrian and bicycle bridges in the country built specifically for non-motorized travel, and the River Rail Streetcar, which connects both downtowns with a short, scenic ride. Originally called Argenta before incorporating as North Little Rock in 1917, the city carries that history proudly through its revitalized Argenta Historic District, where restored storefronts now house galleries, live theater, boutiques, and locally rooted restaurants. Burns Park, stretching over 1,700 acres, anchors the outdoor scene with golf courses, trails, tennis courts, and athletic fields. Neighborhoods like Park Hill and Lakewood offer distinct residential pockets within the city.
