For many pioneers, traders, settlers, and soldiers, this area was the beginning of the Oregon and Santa Fe Trails leading to the Far West. The trace of the original road leading up from the river is marked to the west, while the steamboat and ferry landings for Fort Leavenworth were nearby, and foundations of one of the old levee warehouses may still be seen to the east.
