  • Uptown Girl: the Andresen Flats and the West End by Marion Meginnis
    Uptown Girl: The Andresen Flats and the West End By Marion Meginnis Spring 2015 HP613 Urban History Goucher College M.H.P Program Consistent with the Goucher College Academic Honor Code, I hereby affirm that this paper is my own work, that there was no collaboration between myself and any other person in the preparation of this paper (I.B.1), and that all work of others incorporated herein is acknowledged as to author and source by either notation or commentary (I.B.2). _____________ (signature) ___________ (date) The Andresen Flats The Andresen Flats and its neighborhood are tied to the lives of Davenport, Iowa’s earliest German settlers, people who chose Davenport as a place of political refuge and who gave and demanded much of their new community. At times, their heritage and beliefs would place them on a collision course with fellow citizens with different but equally deeply felt beliefs. The conflicts played out against the backdrop of national events occurring less than a hundred years after the city’s founding and just a few years after the Andresen was built. The changes that followed and the shift in how Davenporters lived in their city forever altered the course of the neighborhood, the building, and the citizens who peopled both. Built by German immigrant H. H. Andresen in 1900, the Flats dominates its corner at Western Avenue and West 3rd Street in downtown Davenport. The city is located at one of the points where the Mississippi River’s flow is diverted from its north/south orientation to run west.

  • Historic Preservation
    Davenport 2025: Comprehensive Plan for the City Historic Preservation - 155 - Davenport 2025: Comprehensive Plan for the City Summary The historic preservation chapter (1986) of the city’s comprehensive plan asks the question, “What is ‘historic preservation?’” The answers provided by the authors are still true today: Put simply, historic preservation is the national movement to conserve the human-made environment. It includes efforts to protect buildings, structures, sites and neighborhoods associated with important people, events and developments. It is a movement which draws from the disciplines of history, architecture and archaeology and links us with our heritage.1 The 1986 chapter established five goals for Davenport’s historic preservation efforts: protect and enhance the character of the community’s significant neighborhoods and landmarks, coordinate local preservation efforts between the public and private sector, develop tools to create a favorable preservation climate, use preservation to strengthen the local economy, and increase the public awareness of the community’s history, culture, and heritage to create a sense of pride, place, and continuity.2 Davenport, like many communities across the country, experienced mixed preservation results over the past twenty years. The community has established numerous local and national historic districts in our community’s neighborhoods. State and local governments have cooperated to strengthen the city’s preservation programs in specific instances. The city has created incentives that can be used to preserve, protect, and enhance our built environment. On the downside, the city has failed to capitalize economically on its history, and the community has mixed feelings about the methods of and the reasons for historic preservation.
