Everyone knows that Clinton was born in Hope, but he spent most of his Arkansas time in Little Rock. Besides the obvious Capitol and Governor's Mansion, here are some other great places that he used to visit when he lived here.
This steak house in Arkansas is a favorite restaurant of Clinton, even now. Located at 1023 West Markham St. in Little Rock it shows that Clinton was a down home kind of guy. However, this place is a popular gathering place for politicians. 501-376-1195.
2. Broadway McDonald's
Who can forget all the jokes about Clinton and McDonald's? It's true, Clinton would stop at the McDonald's in downtown Little Rock (701 S. Broadway) all the time. It was on his jogging route and he had to stop and grab a snack.3. Jog Like The President
Despite his bad eating habits (see above) Clinton tried to stay healthy by jogging everyday. His route took him from the Governor's mansion at 18th and Center through downtown Little Rock (but downtown Little Rock looked a lot different back then). Clinton frequently golfed at this private club. The Chenal Country Club is located at 7 Chenal Club Boulevard in Little Rock. He also sometimes golfed with the little people at the Rebsamen Golf Course on Rebsamen Park Road. That course is open to the public.
This site served as the backdrop for Clinton's victory announcements both times he won the Presidency. It's located at 300 W. Markham and hosts a museum. 501-324-9685.
6. Community Bakery
Insiders say that Clinton had a sweet tooth and often stopped at Community Bakery. I don't blame him. They have the best cakes. Clinton's fave was located at 1200 Main Street, 501-375-6418. They also have locations on Markham and Shackleford. 7. Dunbar Recreation Center
This polling center was where Clinton voted when he was Governor. This is also where he voted for President in 1992. Wonder who he voted for? It's located at 1001 West 16th Street.8. Campaign Headquarters
The old Gazette building is where Clinton and Gore headed their campaign in 1992. It's located at 112 West 3rd Street. This historic building was headquarters for the Arkansas Gazette, once the oldest newspaper West of the Mississippi.9. Justice Building
A lot of people forget that Clinton was actually Attorney General for a while. While he was, he had an office in this building located at 1500 West 7th Street.10. The Clinton's Old Houses
The Clinton's lived in a few houses in downtown Little Rock throughout the years. The first was at 5419 L Street, which they lived in from 1977-1979. They then moved to 816 Midland Street.
