I-Little Little Rock
I-Petite Roche yidwala ephuma kwi-Arkansas River. Ukuthetha ngokwemihlaba, kwintlambo ye-Ouachita Intaba yeentaba, iGulf Coast Plain kunye ne-Arkansas River delta. Kwakhona kwaziwa ngokuba yiPoint of Rocks. Kwakuqala ukuphawulwa nguJean-Baptiste Bénard de La Harpe, omnye wabahloli bamazwe baseYurophu yokuqala ngo-Ephreli 9, 1722. La Harpe Boulevard, ehamba ngeYordanfront Park , ikwabizwa ngokuba yiyo.
Iphuzu leRwala kwakuyi-rock yokuqala ephuma kwi-Arkansas River njengoko unyuke ukusuka e-Mississippi waza wenza i-plateau yemvelo ngaphezu kwe-floodplain. I Point of Rocks yenze indawo ephawulekayo kwiindawo zokuhlala kunye nebhasin yeenqanawa. Iingcali zeGiologists ziyibiza ngokuba yiJoefork Formation.
UJean-Baptiste Bénard de La Harpe akazange akhulume igama elithi Little Rock. I-Little Rock (iLe Petit Rocher) ibizwa ngokuba yiFrentshi. I-Harpe yabiza igama elitye elikhulu elingaphuma "le Rocher Francais." Ngokutsho kweArchansas Encyclopedia, ukusetyenziswa kwegama lokuqala elithi "Le Petit Rocher" kwakungu-1799. Iindawo ezibizwa ngokuba yi "La Petite Roche."
Ukudumala okukhulu kwimbali, ungasayi kubona i-rock in out in its form. Ngelishwa, inkqubela phambili yathatha umonakalo kwi-original markmark. NgoMeyi ka-1872, ibhuloho yathunyelwa kwiPoint of Rocks. Ibhuloho yayijoliswe ekubeni isebenze ibhuloho, kodwa iphrojekthi yalahlwa.
Noko ke, i-Point of Rocks, kunjalo, sele sele ihlupheke kakhulu. Kwakungazange kubonakale kuyimimangaliso njengoko kwakunjalo. Oku akuyi kuba yithuba lokugqibela loo ndawo yenziwe.
Ngomnyaka we-1883, iJunction Bridge yayithunywe kwaye idwala lavulwa kakhulu. IJunction Bridge yayiyibhuloho yesitimela yase-Union Pacific eyayithwala izitimela ngaphesheya kweMfula iAransas kuze kube ngo-1984 xa kusetshenziswe umzila waloliwe.
Namhlanje, yindlela yokuhamba ngeenyawo. Nangona kunjalo, i Point of Rocks yatshintshwa ngakumbi nangemva kokuba ibhuloho yakhiwe.
Ngomnyaka we-1932, iNdawo yeMihlaba yaguqulwa ngakumbi kubavakashi. Kuye kwagqitywa ukuba ukutyelela ukuphuma kwayo kwakunobungozi, ngoko-4,700-pound chunk yasuswa kwaye yafudukela kwiholo leedolophu, kwaye i-capsule yexesha yafakwa ngaphakathi kwayo. Esi siqwenga sihleli kwiHolo yeSixeko kude kube ngo-2009.
Ngo-2009, le ngqungquthela yabuyiselwa kuMlambo waseA Arkansas kwaye yanikwa indawo yayo. I-plaza igxininisa imbali yendawo kwaye ilandele indlela ekhokelela kwiJunction Bridge Junction Bridge Pedestrian kunye ne-Cycling Walkway apho iiphaneli ezithandathu zinikela ngolwazi malunga nembali yesayithi. Le ndawo itholakala kufuphi nomntla we-Rock Street kufuphi ne-History Pavilion e-Riverfront Park.
Ukuba ufuna ukubona iliwa namhlanje, lihleli apha kunye ne-pointer yomlando apho kwakudala ukuphuma. Ukuba uhamba e-Riverfront Park, iLa Petit Roche Plaza iphakathi kwe-Riverfront Amphitheatre kunye neJunction Bridge. Kukho ucingo oluhlula i-plaza. Kunzima ukuphosakela, kodwa ndincoma ukuba ndihambe nayo yonke ipaki. Iyonke ipaki enye yezinto ezingenakukuphosakela kwiindawo eziphambili kwiDowntown Little Rock .
I-Riverfront Park izaliswe ngamanqaku amnandi ngembali malunga nabahlali bokuqala. Ipaki ye-block ye-11 nayo ihamba ngeendlela kunye neminye imizila ye-Arkansas River. Kufanele uhambo xa uhlala edolophini. Ixhunyiwe kwi- Arkansas River Trail . I-Riverfront Park inezinto ezininzi zeentsapho, kubandakanywa neplash pad kunye neendawo zokudlala.
