Moline, Industrial city in Rock Island County, Illinois, United States
Located along the Mississippi River, Moline forms part of the Quad Cities metropolitan area with Rock Island, East Moline, Davenport, and Bettendorf.
The settlement received its name from the French word 'moulin' in 1843 due to the numerous flour mills operating on the Mississippi River banks.
The city maintains a strong Swedish and Belgian heritage through its neighborhoods, festivals, and architectural elements from early immigrant settlements.
Moline features multiple bridges connecting Illinois to Iowa, making it a central transportation hub for both commercial and personal travel.
The John Deere World Headquarters, designed by architect Eero Saarinen in 1963, stands as a primary example of modernist corporate architecture.
