History
North Little Rock was originally known as Argenta, the name now given to the downtown district of the city. Argenta became part of the City of Little Rock in 1890 and was briefly known as the Eighth Ward. North Little Rock was founded nearby in 1901, and in 1904 the Arkansas Supreme Court gave the town permission to annex the Eighth Ward. The city was known as Argenta until 1917 when it adopted the new name of North Little Rock.
