As North Side continues to modernize and keep up with the times, new homes are being built so that new residents can experience all that neighborhood has to offer.

All the features of fall fill the atmosphere in North Side, right down to the trees decked out in red, green and gold leaves. Winding roads lined with homes of various styles fill the residential streets, with houses set back from the curb on spacious lots with manicured lawns.

Red Hawk has hosted golf legends

North Side has plenty of outdoor recreation with 11 parks for residents to enjoy. Covering 28 acres of green space, Goose Creek Park is a hot spot for baseball enthusiasts, with its baseball diamond available for practice and games. Little ones can enjoy the park’s playgrounds, and everyone can cool off at the spray ground during warmer months. The park also has an area for disc golf and a community picnic shelter for get-togethers. The baseball fever continues at the 220-acre Prairie Heights Park, the home of the Southeast Little League and the Davenport Challenger League with its four diamonds, including the all-inclusive Miracle Field. The park also has a playground and an expansive walking trail that begins at its entrance. Golf enthusiasts can hone and develop their swing at Red Hawk Golf & Learning Center regardless of skill level. Red Hawk Golf is a 9-hole course that offers educational programming to any golfer and scholarships to select participants. Recently renovated, the course now features a putting and chipping green and three new ponds. The complex’s other courses, Emeis and Duck Creek, are 18-hole courses. Spread across 6,500 yards, Emeis goes to a par 72 and has hosted golf greats Arnold Palmer and Gary Player. Duck Creek covers 5,759 yards to par 70 and will begin hosting Cosmic Golf, a glow-in-the-dark experience for everyone to enjoy, in 2024.
