The East End is a tree-shaded walkable Davenport neighborhood full of vintage homes, views of the Mississippi River and lively local events, making it one of the city's most sought-after communities. Residents also enjoy close proximity to the rest of the Quad Cities through a network of highways and a seasonal river ferry system.
Mainly a residential area, homes line the gridded streets, stretching from the bending Mississippi River to the wooded expanses along Duck Creek, a walking distance of about a mile and three-quarters. Along the way, homes on hillsides overlook shaded streets, creating a large portion of the area's appeal. "The established trees create a gorgeous canopy that shields you from really hot days and makes this a very walkable community,'' said Realtor Ana Aguilera True of True Homes. The East End is full of classic Colonial Revivals, Tudors, Foursquares and single-family contemporary homes. Adding to the attraction, she said, is the view of the Mississippi River from some of the elevated sections of the neighborhood. Though some homes are in need of renovation, turnkey homes tend to range from $100,000 to $300,000. The larger homes of the McClellan Heights Historic District, within the neighborhood in the southeastern corner, sell for $300,000 to $550,000.
Concentrations of local eateries and bars can be found at Mound Street and 11th Street, as well as east of the neighborhood along Kimberly Road. The 11th Street Precinct Bar & Grill is a popular local watering hole providing pub grub and live music. Lagomarcino’s Confectionery, in the style of an old-school soda fountain, serves an array of chocolates, gummies, truffles, ice cream and other in-house-made goods, popular since 1908. Local boutiques such as Wind Dancer provide trendy clothing, accessories and gifts. Eastern Avenue provides direct access to the shops off U.S. Route 6, including the local Hy-Vee grocery store and Fresh Thyme Farmers Market, which offers a vast array of organic goods.
Duck Creek Park, on the eastern side of the neighborhood, features as its centerpiece an 18-hole public golf course but also includes athletics fields, pickleball and tennis courts, a bike trail, playground, reservable pavilion and the Stampe Lilac Garden, which blooms during the spring and summer. Bordering East River Drive are several parks, including Lindsay Park, Indian Springs Park and Prospect Terrace Park. Just east of the neighborhood is Malibu Jack's Quad Cities, an amusement park featuring go-karts, miniature golf, bowling, arcade games and laser tag. For fun in the summer, the Annie Wittenmyer Aquatic Center is located on Eastern Avenue. The 14-mile Riverfront Trail traces the Iowa side of the Mississippi from around the Interstate 74 overpass to Credit Island Park to the west. It is popular with cyclists, pedestrians and runners
Neighborhood events are a regular part of the calendar in East End, ranging from celebrations of beer and wine and art displays to a connection with the region's farming legacy. “It’s a life-of-the-party kind of community,” says True. The annual Village Hops Craft Beer Festival, in its third year, features brews and ciders from more than 25 breweries while also providing live music and streets lined with food vendors. The East Village Wine Walk starts at the International Fire Museum, Lagomarcino's and the Village Theater, where participants can pick up a wine glass and make their way toward nearby businesses, sampling wine as they go. Hosted at Lindsay Park, the Riverssance Art Fair is a two-day event featuring work from over 70 local artists. The festivities also include food vendors and a wine tasting, accompanied by live music. Farm Days takes place in late summer over two days with a petting zoo, agriculture displays, arts and crafts and more.
The Davenport Community School District serves the residents of East End. Students can begin their education at centrally located McKinley Elementary School, which received a C-plus on Niche. Eisenhower Elementary is on the north end of the neighborhood and received a C-plus. Students advance to Sudlow Intermediate School, which scored a C on the site. Students can also attend Central High School, which received a B-minus rating and offers a college prep and job shadowing program.
East River Drive borders the neighborhood to the south, putting residents within 2 miles of downtown Davenport, while Interstate 74 borders the east, providing direct access to Moline, Rock Island and Bettendorf. Public transportation is available through The Davenport Citibus, which serves several bus stops along Eastern Avenue and East Locust Street and the seasonal Channel Cat Water Taxi that travels up and down the river, connecting riders to both side between Memorial Day and Labor Day. Paratransit is also available for those who cannot travel within a fixed route. For long-distance travel, the Quad Cities International Airport is about 8 miles south of the neighborhood.
Davenport was recently awarded $13.1 million from the federal government for flood-mitigation projects for roads along the Mississippi River, one of which involves raising the level of the road at Mound Street and East River Drive. Other projects include improvements to provide for flooded road detours.
