North Little Rock

The city just north of the river, North Little Rock, has its own personality and is not to be outdone by its bigger cousin. Formerly known as Argenta, this municipality has preserved its own local history. The old mill in Old Mill Park, famous for being the backdrop during the opening credits in Gone with the Wind, is open for tours. The Argenta Historic District is a large area that includes city hall, several churches and a military post. North Little Rock is also the site of the newly built Alltel Arena, which is home of the UALR Trojan Basketball Team, the Arkansas Twisters Arena Football and the Riverblades hockey team, as well as a number of touring events.
