CLARKSVILLE
Clarksville
is nestled along Spadra
Creek in the Arkansas
River Valley, between
the Ozark foothills and
the Arkansas River. It
is home to several major
corporations which
provide employment for
area residents.
Interstate 40 and US
Hwy. 64 are the main
arteries of
transportation.
In 1936, the county seat was established
in the newly formed town, named for early
settler and businessman, Lorenzo N. Clark.
The city was incorporated in 1848 and
celebrated its sesquicentennial in 1998.
The first courthouse was built in 1838
on the same site occupied by the present-day
structure. The original town plat followed
the traditional court square pattern.
Many buildings from the 19th century remain
along the square and downtown streets
and give Clarksville its historic flavor
and charm. Many of these structures, as
well as churches and private homes have
been named to the National Register of
Historic Buildings.
