Located in the historic “red brick” buildings of the 400 block of
Brady St. in old downtown Davenport, Iowa, Riverbend Antiques features
over 250,000 items. The five buildings of Riverbend date back to 1862
and sit on old Commerce Alley which in 1830 was the original plotted
Main Street of Davenport. The oldest structure in downtown – the first
Christian church built West of the Mississippi – still stands on the
property.
Forty years ago, Ron “Catman” Bellomy rented the front room of
the house and named it Riverbend Antiques after the only East/West bend
in his beloved Mississippi River around which the city is built. Since
then, Riverbend has become one of the largest solely owned antique
stores in the country.
