<P> Davenport is located on the banks of the Mississippi River . At this point the river has a maximum depth of around 30 to 40 feet ( 9.1 to 12.2 m ) and is 2,217 feet ( 676 m ) wide where the Centennial Bridge crosses it . The river flows from east to west in this area , as opposed to its usual north to south direction . From the river the city starts to slope north up a hill , which is steep at some points . The streets of the city , especially downtown and in the central part of the town , follow a grid design . </P>
