History

East Side of Downtown Waterloo Iowa from the West bank of the Cedar River
East Side of Downtown Waterloo Iowa from the West bank of the Cedar River

Waterloo was originally known as "Prairie Rapids Crossing". The town was built on top of a Native American village. Native Americans in the United States are the indigenous peoples from the regions of North America now encompassed by the continental United States A village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet, but smaller than a Town or City. The town is now named after Waterloo, Belgium. Waterloo (watəʀˈloː is a Walloon Municipality located in the province of Walloon Brabant, Belgium. The city's primary waterway is the Cedar River. The Cedar River is a River in Minnesota and Iowa which is named after the juniper (also called " Red cedar " Trees It was first settled in 1845 when George and Mary Hanna and their children arrived on the east bank of the Red Cedar River (now just called the Cedar River). They were followed by the Virden and Mullan families in 1846. Evidence of these earliest families can still be found in the street names Hanna Blvd. , Mullan Avenue and Virden Creek.

There were two extended periods of rapid growth over the next 115 years. From 1895 to 1915, the population increased from 8,490 to 33,097 a 290% increase. From 1925 to 1960, population increased from 36,771 to 71,755. The 1895 to 1915 period was a time of the rapid growth in manufacturing, rail transportation and wholesale operations. It was during this period the Waterloo Gasoline Traction Engine Company moved to Waterloo and was shortly after Rath Packing Company had relocated from Dubuque. The Waterloo Gasoline Engine Company was the first company to manufacture and sell Gasoline powered farm Tractors. The Rath Packing Company was a Meatpacking company located in Waterloo Iowa between 1891 and 1985 Another major employer Waterloo throughout the first two-thirds of the 20th Century was the Illinois Central Railroad. The Illinois Central, sometimes called the Main Line of Mid-America, was a railroad carrier in the central United States, with its primary routes Among the others was the less-successful brass era automobile company Maytag-Mason. The automotive Brass Era is the first period of automotive manufacturing named for the prominent Brass Fittings used during this time for such things as lights and [1]

Waterloo suffered particularly hard in the agricultural recession of the 1980s, due to the major employers at the time being heavily rooted in agriculture. In particular, John Deere, the area's largest employer, cut 10,000 jobs, and the Rath meatpacking plant closed altogether, losing 2500 jobs. It is estimated Waterloo lost 14% of its population during this time. [2] Today the city enjoys a broader industrial base, as city leaders have sought to diversify the industrial and commercial mix. Deere remains a strong presence in the city, but employs only roughly one-third the number of jobs it did at its peak.

Diversity

Although located in the Midwest, which is historically and predominantly white, Waterloo and its industries have attracted a diverse population that sometimes reflects national trends. African-Americans were first drawn to Waterloo by the railroad repair shop. African Americans or Black Americans are citizens or residents of the United States who have origins in any of the black populations of Africa In 1870 the Illinois Central Railroad built its repair shop in Waterloo Iowa. Groups of mostly African-American laborers did the work of moving heavy railroad equipment. The biggest migration of African-American people into the area was in 1911 when the railroad responded to a strike by transporting African-American workers from Mississippi.

In the 1990s, Bosnian war refugees were resettled in Waterloo by the federal government, and during the same decade a new IBP packing plant attracted hundreds of Hispanics.

This diversity of races has generally worked well, but Waterloo has experienced its share of racial tension and hostility. Early on, African-Americans settled on only the "East" side (geographically and more accurately north-northeast, but the term has become locally fixed), while Caucasians populated both the "East" and the "West" sides. Over many decades, the "East" side stagnated and the "West" side became more prosperous. The "East" side of downtown Waterloo is now experiencing a renaissance with a developing entertainment area along the East 4th Street corridor. In the 1980s, the racial tensions took a backseat to the economic problems. While not gone, the racial tensions are a fraction of their peak in the late 1960s.
